Chile has become one of the world's leading exporters of English walnuts thanks to its Mediterranean climate, which promotes dry harvesting conditions and excellent preservation of the kernels' light color. The Extra Light grade represents the most desirable kernel color under international standards, while Halves 40% indicates that at least 40% of the product consists of whole walnut halves, a premium specification highly valued by the food industry and gourmet markets. Anakena® is recognized for supplying Chilean walnuts that meet rigorous standards of selection, traceability and export quality.
