How It Started

A Chance Encounter in Marseille

Soto & Segovia Imports began with a chance encounter thousands of miles from home.

Jorge Soto and Roberto Segovia Pérez met while traveling through Europe. Jorge was on his honeymoon, and Roberto was traveling with his significant other when the two couples found themselves sitting next to each other in Marseille, France.

A conversation quickly became a friendship.

Jorge and Roberto connected over entrepreneurship, their shared Spanish heritage, and a deep appreciation for the foods and traditions of Spain. They talked about exceptional olive oils, artisan salts, vinegars, wines, and the simple ingredients that make Spanish cuisine so extraordinary.

The idea stayed with them.

A year later, when Roberto and his significant other visited Jorge in Miami, that conversation became something more. They decided to create Soto & Segovia Imports, bringing carefully selected gourmet foods from Spain to the United States and sharing the flavors, craftsmanship, and traditions they both love.

Our Focus

From Spain, With Purpose

Soto & Segovia Imports specializes in premium Spanish gourmet foods and thoughtfully curated gifting experiences.

Beginning with corporate gifting, executive gifts, client appreciation, and luxury gifting, the company serves businesses and individuals looking for something more memorable than the traditional gift basket: authentic products from Spain selected for their quality, provenance, and craftsmanship.

From extra virgin olive oils and infused oils to artisan salts, vinegars, and other Spanish specialties, every product is chosen to offer a genuine taste of Spain.

Our Values

Authenticity

Every product is sourced directly from artisan producers in Spain who have perfected their craft over generations.

Quality

We personally vet each farm and producer to ensure the highest standards before any product bears our name.

Excellence

From sourcing to delivery, we are committed to an exceptional experience for every client and partner.

Heritage

We preserve the traditions of Spanish gastronomy and share them with the world through every bottle and jar.

Príncipe Azahar · Altea, España

Where Every Product
Is Born

At Partida la Olla in Altea, Alicante, Bodegas Sendra González produces every olive oil, infused oil, vinegar, salt, and fruit wine under the Príncipe Azahar label and imported to the USA by Soto & Segovia Imports. Each flavored oil macerates in its own dedicated vat, one ingredient at a time. No artificial drops, no concentrates, no shortcuts.

They are the only producer in the world making fruit wines commercially, a distinction recognized by Televisión Española, which produced a documentary feature on the winery and its owner. High-quality olive oil never turns cloudy, and Príncipe Azahar holds that standard on every single batch.
