How we produce hazelnuts

Hazelnut usually ripens in late July through early August and is harvested in the middle of August through the middle of September. Hazelnuts are then shed from husk and dried by special separating machines. Later, hazelnuts are removed of dry skin and sorted for size. The rancid and damaged kernels are picked out and then the product is offered for consumption.

We take extra effort to ensure you get only quality goods, therefore our hazelnuts are carefully selected, unshelled, packed and then delivered to the local and foreign markets.
