Overview
The aromatic profile is one of the reasons this hazelnut is appreciated by artisans and processors. Perceived quality also depends on season, post-harvest handling, moisture and storage conditions.
- Aroma: expressive; profile may vary by season and batch
- Typical uses: pastry, gelato, artisan ingredient supply
- Main format today: in-shell
- Batch availability: season-dependent
- Processing (shelled/peeled/granules/paste): in development / on request for minimum batches
Harvest & seasonality
Harvest timing and weather conditions can affect moisture, stability and batch management. After harvest, batches are typically cleaned and may be dried/conditioned and sorted. This helps stabilize moisture and improve storage performance.
- Indicative period: late summer / autumn (season-dependent)
- Post-harvest: cleaning + possible conditioning/drying
- Sorting: aligned to requested specs (by batch)
- Availability: depends on season and required specifications
Quality & common defects
Hazelnut quality is both technical and sensory. Some common issues are closely linked to moisture and storage conditions.
- Moisture: too high can increase mold risk and reduce stability
- Mold: can develop with poor airflow or unsuitable storage
- Rancidity: oxidation favored by heat, light and long storage
- Batch management: helps reduce variability and defects
In-shell storage (best practices)
The shell offers protection, but stable quality still depends on proper storage. A cool, dry, ventilated environment helps preserve aroma and stability.
- Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area
- Avoid strong odors and direct light exposure
- Monitor humidity and pests regularly
- Rotate batches (FIFO) for consistent freshness
- Keep packaging intact until use when possible
Packaging & logistics (B2B)
For B2B supply, packaging and logistics affect stability, cost and lead time. We align format, labeling and destination requirements based on quantities and specifications.
- Packaging: sacks / cartons / pallets (batch-dependent)
- Documents: invoice, batch info; analyses on request
- Lead time: depends on season and batch preparation
- Traceability: batch-based
