The Hazelnut
The queen of the Langhe is round and fine, the IGP Piedmont Hazelnut. Symbol of the Alta Langa and product of absolute excellence, it is considered the best hazelnut in the world thanks to its organoleptic characteristics and the careful work behind its cultivation.
?Piedmontese Hazelnut? or ?Hazelnut of Piedmont? means the nut, shelled or unshelled, of the variety Tonda Gentile Trilobata. Its cultivation is concentrated in just a few zones of Piedmont in hilly areas or mountainous foothills of the Langhe, Roero, and Monferrato.
The IGP Piedmont Hazelnut is round but with three distinct sections, and has a diameter between 17 and 21 mm. Its shell is medium-thick and its color is a classic, medium hazelnut brown. Shelled, it has a diameter between 11 and 15 mm and its nut is compact with fine and persistant aromas and flavors. The denomination I.G.P. (Indicazione geografica protetta, or Protected Geographical Indications) guarantees consumers of its quality and authenticity. It also certifies the zone and mode of production that respects its extraordinary characteristics during the process.
