Only if organic Brazil Nut trees could talk! These tall, strong powerful trees can live up to 1000 years! Native to the Amazon rainforest, they have witnessed the growth and ultimate decline of many ancient civilizations, such as the Mayans, Incas, and Aztecs who undoubtedly all used its fruits for nourishment. OrganicBrazil nuts are still sourced almost entirely from wild trees in the jungle, by methods largely unchanged for thousands of years. Pods weighing up to two kilos fall from the trees and are gathered and broken to reveal anywhere between ten and forty Brazil nuts in individual shells. The large, long, cream coloured kernels are covered in a thin brown papery skin. AtRoyal Nut we only select theplumpest, crispiest, meatiest kernels.The flesh has a creamy texture and fresh, sweet flavour.
