Why Turkey?
Hazelnut orchards are native to countries with moist winters and cool summers. For this reason, most of the hazelnut producers are located in the northern hemisphere within 30km of the coast, such as the Black Sea in Turkey and the Atlantic coast in France. In particular, Turkey is known to produce the best quality hazelnuts, accounting for over 70% of the world’s production.
Hazelnut production in Turkey can be divided into two sub-regions eastern and western part of the Black Sea coast, where eastern regions include provinces such as Ordu, Giresun, and Trabzon. Western regions consist of provinces such as Samsun, Sinop, and Kocaeli. Turkish hazelnuts are classified into two groups: Giresun and Levant.
Giresun quality is the type of hazelnuts grown in the entire province of Giresun and in certain districts of Trabzon province. Giresun quality hazelnuts are known for its superior quality with highest fat content and thus priced higher than that of Levant quality.
Levant quality is the common name given to all hazelnuts that are grown in regions other than the region of Giresun quality hazelnut. Called Levant Akçakoca, Levant Ordu, Levant Trabzon or Levant Samsun depending on the province of which they are grown in. Levant hazelnuts contain lower fat compared to the Giresun quality but with higher fat content and better flavour than those grown in other countries.
