Greek raw almonds as broken kernels: halves split lengthwise, known in the Greek trade as feta, together with smaller pieces. They come from Greek varieties such as Ferragnes, Texas and Tuono and taste the same as whole kernels, at a lower price. They are the economical choice when the almonds will be ground, chopped or mixed into a dough.

Broken kernels expose more surface than whole ones, so they need protection from heat and moisture. Store sacks in a cool, dry place, ideally up to 10 °C and below 65% relative humidity, on pallets and away from strong odours.
Frequently asked questions
What does feta mean for almonds?
It is the Greek trade term for almonds split in half lengthwise, showing their white inner face. It does not mean sliced or flaked almonds.
Are they suitable for almond biscuits?
Yes. When the almonds are ground, broken kernels give the same result as whole ones at a lower cost.
Can I ask for a specific variety?
Broken kernels usually come from mixed Greek varieties. If you need one variety, ask us about availability for the season.
