Grown, picked and processed by the Casaretto family on their family farm in Taylorville South Australia, Casarosa Almonds produce the freshest almonds in Australia. Toasted to perfection, these almonds are great for snacking, or making into nut butters.

At the moment, we have Carina almonds, which are a mid-sized almond with a sweet & buttery taste. Carina are a high yielding variety, which are also used as an early season pollinator for Nonpareil.

Other times of the year, we will have:

Nonpareil almonds, which are Australia's most popular almonds, prized for their superior appearance and taste. These almonds have a relatively flat shape and a light coloured smooth skin, with a mild almond flavour and a distinctive sweet finish. They are a late season harvest but tend to fly out the door the quickest. 

Carmel Almonds, which are an early season variety. Very popular variety Carmel are slightly smaller and rounder and nonpareil, with a softer skin and a more intense almond flavour.

Price almonds, which are a smaller almond with a sweet & buttery taste, great as a snack and as an ingredient. Originally from California, the Price variety is used to cross-pollinate with the Nonpareil almond trees.

Monterey almonds, which are a smooth soft shell variety with large, flat, sweet and meaty kernels. Making them a popular choice for both eating and baking. 

Independent almonds, which are a relatively new variety on the scene. Developed in 2008, the independent variety of almond is a self pollinating variety, which is rare in almonds. Traditionally, almonds require cross pollination in order to ensure profitable harvests. In other words, pollen from one variety needs to move to the flower of another variety in order for the flower to be fertilized and set a nut. This is why we have multiple varieties of differing pollen groups planted within almond orchards. Independent Almonds tend to be on the smaller side, with a higher oil content.
