NUTS IN SHELL FOR CHRISTMAS

Most of our cobnuts are de-husked and then dried, so they can be enjoyed over a longer period than fresh cobnuts. These dried nuts are available in major supermarkets in time for Christmas. 

In order to produce oil from the cobnuts, Mr Dain designed and developed a nut cracking and shelling machine.

Once the shells are removed, the nut kernels can be pressed for Cobnut Oil.  We have facilitated the resurgence of a tradition which was common in mediaeval times but had lapsed over recent generations. Also known as hazelnuts or philberts (as mentioned by Shakespeare in 'The Tempest') cobnuts were part of the staple diet of many of our ancestors, and as recently as the 1800s were pressed for oil. Healthy, delicious and produced from one of the most ancient natural foods in the UK.
