Shelled pine nuts / Miolo de pinhão Portugal

These pine nuts come from Portugal and impress with their distinctively mild, aromatic taste – a real highlight for gourmets.

The edible seeds of the stone pine ( Pinus pinea L ), cultivated throughout the Mediterranean, ripen here in a unique, ecologically valuable climate. The native stone pines are perfectly adapted to the hot, dry summer climate and benefit from an intact ecosystem with numerous mammals, insects, reptiles, and amphibians. Sustainable harvesting protects nature and promotes the preservation of this sensitive biotope.

Pine nuts – genuine handcraft
The pine cones are harvested by hand from October to April. Only when the cones are completely dry do the precious pine nuts release, which are then laboriously extracted from the cones by hand.

The hard nutshell is then cracked and removed. The fine, brown skin surrounding the kernel is carefully peeled off—a laborious process that ensures its incomparable quality.

These pine nuts are natural and raw, without any further processing – perfect for a healthy, enjoyable diet.
