Description

Discover the deep, bold character of Gurbandi Bitter Almonds, one of the most treasured almond varieties from the rugged highlands of Afghanistan. Unlike common sweet almonds, Gurbandi almonds are smaller in size — but don’t be fooled. They are denser, richer, and far more intense in flavor.

Each almond carries a beautifully earthy aroma and a natural bitterness that hints at its purity and potency. Historically valued in Ayurveda and traditional wellness, these almonds are prized not for sweetness — but for their powerful composition, naturally high oil content, and concentrated nutrients.

key Benefits

• Higher natural oil content than regular almonds — offering richer nutrients and a velvety mouthfeel.
• Rich in antioxidants that support defense against oxidative stress.
• Traditionally associated with good fats, vitamin E, and trace minerals, supporting general wellness and nourishment.
• Used in Ayurveda and traditional practices for vitality, nourishment, and strength.

How to Store

• Keep in an airtight container or resealable pouch to maintain the nut’s crunch and prevent exposure to moisture.
• Store in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and heat (heat can turn natural oils rancid).
• In warm or humid weather, refrigerate to maintain freshness and preserve the oils.
• For long-term storage, freeze small portions — Gurbandi almonds freeze very well.
• Always reseal tightly after each use to preserve their aroma, flavor, and quality.
