The Spanish Mint = Fábrica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre
Headquarters (Madrid).The Royal Spanish Mint (Spanish: Fábrica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre – Real Casa de la Moneda, abbreviated as FNMT-RCM) is the national mint of Spain.
In 1893, two organizations, the Casa de la Moneda (Mint) and the Fábrica del Sello (Stamp Factory) merged to create the Fábrica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre. Previously, they had shared a building in Plaza de Colón, but were independent of one another.
Banknote production began in 1940. A new building came into use in 1964, in which the passport and national identification card were produced. Later, bingo cards and tickets for the state-run lottery were produced.
Two plants, in Madrid and Burgos, are currently operational. Some of the FNMT-RCM's product lines are ISO 9001 certified.
The FNMT-RCM is a part of the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Finance.

it is kinda hard to describe the flavor but it is pretty much like a regular mint (the one you know) but stronger, great to make ice cream, meat and other really good recipes.
it is also the name of the house of money in Spain
