Calibration and shelling
After harvesting, the hazelnuts undergo a calibration process, which allows them to be divided by size and quality, ensuring uniformity in subsequent processing.
Subsequently, we proceed with mechanical shelling, carried out with specific machinery that preserves the integrity of the fruit, guaranteeing a high yield and maximum selection of the product.

Sorting and roasting

After shelling, the hazelnuts are carefully sorted manually and mechanically to eliminate any impurities or damaged fruits. Only perfect hazelnuts continue in the production cycle.
Our oven roasting enhances the typical aroma and flavour of the IGP Piedmont hazelnut, while preserving its nutritional and beneficial properties.
