Pili Nuts – wild harvested, volcano grown, activated (unsalted)

Pili nuts are tear-shaped nuts that come from a tropical tree called Canarium ovatum. Shoku Iku pili nuts are grown at the foot of majestic volcanoes in the lush rainforests of the Philippines. These low-carbohydrate pili nuts are hand harvested and activated. High in vitamin E, magnesium, manganese and contains all 8 essential amino acids.

Pili nuts are notoriously labour intensive to harvest. A community of independent farmers who climb these ancient trees with great precision collects Shoku Iku pili nuts. These nuts are then cracked and activated at lower temperature to keep them raw, which improves their digestibility and boosts bioavailability.
