Specialty kernel hazelnuts, meticulously filtered and hand-picked to ensure only the finest quality reaches you. These hazelnuts are produced through natural methods: dried under sun, farmed without chemical fertilizer or pesticides. They are stored in a suitable condition. We find the best hazelnuts in shell before even cracked. Hazelnut producers classify hazelnuts into 5 categories based on their size. The filter machine filters each category, and the first 3 categories have no rotten hazelnuts. Often these are sold by large hazelnut companies. We only sell category 1 and rarely 2. Thus, when you buy hazelnut from Ocokoci, you buy only high quality ones!
