GOLDEN BROWN GUNSELBERT COBNUTS
Gunselbert
The Gunselbert originated in Germany and is a cultivar of the wild hazelnut.. It
retains the same round shape as the original hazel nut unlike the Lambert's Filbert,
Kentish Cobnut with its ovoid shape. Gunselbert trees produce large clusters of nuts
with short frilly husks. Gunselberts ripen about a month later than Kentish Cobnuts.
Gunselberts have a distinctive nutty flavour and are best eaten fresh or roasted and
used in cakes and desserts. They don't have the same keeping qualities as Kentish Cobnuts.
Most growers use the Gunselbert as a pollinator for the Kentish Cobnut and do not sell
them separately. We think Gunselberts should be appreciated in there own right. We are
selling them separately so you can taste the difference.
Farnell Farm cobnuts are grown without the use of pesticides,
fertilizers or other chemicals. We have a wonderful workforce of
ladybirds and pheasants, which keep the pests under control.
