Harvest description & origin details
We collect these in-shell walnuts from high-altitude mountain valleys across Kokernag, Pahalgam, Shopian, Budgam, and Kupwara in Kashmir. We sell only genuine Kashmir-grown walnuts and never mix imported or outside walnuts in our batches. In Kashmir, these are called Kashmiri Akhrot because the outer wooden shell is thin, allowing you to easily crack two walnuts together in your palm . The giri inside is very oil rich, and its colour can be snow white or a little brownish .
Keeping walnuts inside their natural protective shell is the traditional Kashmiri method of preserving the kernel. The outer shell shields the walnut meat from air, light, and moisture, locking in 100% of the natural walnut oils, crunch, and delicate sweet flavor until the exact moment you open it to eat. Because these walnuts come directly from old mountain trees, natural variation in shell color, texture, and size is completely normal. Every batch is naturally sundried and sorted to remove hollow or cracked shells.
How to use: Take two walnuts in the palm of your hand, and squeeze gently to crack the shell open. Extract the fresh, crunchy giri kernels inside. You can eat them immediately as a healthy daily snack, soak them in water overnight, or chop them for kheer, halwa, baking, breakfast oats, and walnut chutneys.
Storage tips: Store whole in-shell walnuts in a dry, cool jute or cloth sack, or in an airtight box away from moisture, rain, and direct heat. When stored in a cool and dry location, in-shell Kagzi walnuts maintain their fresh quality and crunch for over 12 months.
Walnuts from different parts of Kashmir
These walnuts we collect from different areas of Kashmir like Kokernag, Pahalgam, Pampore, Budgam, Shopian and Kupwara.
Every walnut will not look same
Walnut is a natural crop, so all pieces cannot be same. Some can be little big, some small, and shell colour and shape can also change. This is normal in walnuts coming from different areas and different harvest.
These are walnuts with shell
These walnuts come with the outer shell. You have to crack the shell and take out the giri inside. You can eat the giri directly or use in halwa, kheer, baking, chutney and other home recipes.
How to keep at home
Keep the walnuts in a dry and cool place, away from moisture and direct sunlight. After opening the pack, close it properly.
How to use
A good daily amount is 4 to 6 walnuts, around 20 to 25 grams of kernel, best eaten as a mid-morning or evening snack. You can eat them raw straight from the shell, crush them and turn into a simple chutney, mix the crushed walnut into your coffee for a rich nutty taste, or add them into kheer for a traditional sweet treat. Some people also like to soak them overnight in water and peel before eating, as it is easier to digest that way.
Storage Instructions
Store whole in-shell walnuts in a dry cloth sack or container in a cool place away from moisture and humidity.

Cracked about 15 walnuts so far, and every single one had healthy solid nuts inside. A gentle tap with the back of a spoon is enough to open it. The kernel is crunchy and full of wholesome oil.
