Kola nut · 나이지리아

Kola nut is used to flavor sodas and as a supplement to increase energy or improve health. The nut comes from the evergreen kola tree, which is found in the rainforests of Africa. Inside the tree’s star-shaped fruits are white shells, which contain the seeds or kola nuts. The nut is boiled to extract the kola or it can be ground into a powder. In certain parts of the world, the nut is used as a type of alternative medicine. During exports, kola nuts are packaged in bags, sealed transparent nylons or as the clients request.
