Heirloom Almonds – Shakhurbai

HEIRLOOM: Our heirloom Shakhurbai almonds are an ancient heirloom variety that are higher in protein than California almonds with a smooth and nutty flavor.

NATURAL SUPERFOOD: The Shakhurbai almond is loaded with antioxidants, folate, calcium, Vitamin E and magnesium. These almonds are the world’s forgotten superfood!

GREAT FOR SNACKING: We dry roast our almonds without oil and dust them with Afghan Badakhshan salt, making them the perfect healthy snack.

QUALITY: We started Ziba for one simple reason – to recognize the incredible quality of Afghan dried fruit and nuts. Our almonds are crunchy even when raw, not mealy with a deep robust flavor that is rarely found anymore in almonds grown elsewhere.

WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT: Since its inception, Ziba has maintained a constant focus on supporting and improving the role of women in Afghan society. Ziba’s workforce in both management and staff positions is 80% female.
