Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between Akbari and American Pista? Akbari is long-shaped and easier to open (classic Iranian style). American pistachios are rounder and often more uniform in size due to mechanical harvesting.
Q: What are Green Peeled Kernels? These are pistachios harvested early and peeled to reveal a vibrant green color. They are the most expensive grade, used in premium pastries.
Q: Are your pistachios roasted? We supply both raw pistachios (for baking/cooking) and Roasted & Salted pistachios (for snacking).
Q: How do you ensure freshness? We store our stock in temperature-controlled warehouses and ship vacuum-packed kernels to prevent oxidation and loss of crunch.
