PREMIUM ANTEP PISTACHIOS
World Famous “Green Gold” from Gaziantep
The Pinnacle of Pistachio Flavor
Not all pistachios are created equal. Turkish Antep Pistachios are renowned worldwide for being smaller, darker, and significantly more flavorful than varieties grown elsewhere. Cultivated in the sun-drenched orchards of Southeastern Anatolia, these nuts develop a rich, buttery taste and a vibrant emerald green hue that is unmatched in the confectionery world.
Grown in Legendary Soil
Our pistachios are grown exclusively in the mineral-rich soil of Gaziantep, Turkey. The unique climate—hot, dry summers and cool winters—concentrates the flavor inside the nut, creating a taste profile that is impossible to replicate elsewhere.
Precision Roasting
We combine traditional roasting techniques with modern food safety standards. Using just the right amount of sea salt, we roast our pistachios to perfection. Our facilities use laser sorting technology to ensure 99.9% purity.
The “Green Gold”
For the chocolate, ice cream, and pastry industries, we supply the coveted “Perfect Green” Kernel (Boz İç). Harvested early, these kernels boast a vibrant emerald green color and an intense aroma essential for premium Baklava.

Comprehensive Guide to Premium Turkish Pistachios
The Heritage of Gaziantep: Home of the Green Gold
Gaziantep is historically recognized as the capital of pistachio production. This region provides the perfect arid climate required for *Pistacia vera* trees. Unlike larger varieties from other countries, the Turkish Antep Pistachio is smaller but significantly denser in flavor.
Nutritional Powerhouse
Turkish pistachios are a rich source of plant-based protein, healthy monounsaturated fats, and fiber. They are rich in phytosterols for heart health and provide Vitamin B6 and Potassium.
Culinary Excellence
The “Perfect Green” Kernel (Kuşboku) is the most sought-after grade by luxury chocolate manufacturers. Its intense emerald color eliminates the need for artificial food coloring.
