I recently placed a small order with your company and want to tell you what outstanding customer service you provide. My order was here within 3 days, beautifully packaged and the hazelnuts are lovely. This was my first order with you, but it will certainly not be my last. Thank you so much for the follow up emails, the fast turnaround and your excellent product.

Hazelnuts are also known as filberts because in Europe folklore they are ready for harvest on August 22nd, St. Philbert's Day. But they were known in China some 5000 years ago...and they were gathered by the Romans. Pliny, in fact, claims they orginated in Damascus. They are called "cobnuts" or "hazels" in the United States. Today, however, Turkey is the largest producer of these nuts. Hazel shrubs produce flowers before the leaves—the male in catkins; the female, inconspicuous; both on the same tree.
