It’s never been easy to decode the secret behind understanding what your type is. More often than not, we do realize that our taste can’t be restricted – it changes with time, season and age. But in any case, isn’t it always better to know our choices? Let’s take you through them.
Oh in case we left any space for you to keep wondering, we are talking about cashews. Cashew nuts are native to northeastern Brazil and made their way to India in the early 1560s. Since then, Goa continues to be a nucleus state in producing premium quality cashew nuts and Zantye – a leader in the cashew processing industry across various grades. While there are a total of 33 grades of cashews, only 26 are a part of the commercial trade and business.
Cashew Kernels are graded or further compartmentalized, each of which can give you an idea about the kernels’ shape, size, color and subsequently, its pricing. Based on these factors, the kernels are categorized into white/scorched whole, pieces, splits, butts etc.
- W-180
W-180 is at the top of the list when it comes to size and price. Easily the largest and the most expensive kind of cashew nut, W-180 is commonly referred to as “King of Cashews” owing to its large size. The W-180 Cashew Price in itself is reflective of the grades’ value and quality.
- W-210
Closely behind the “King of Cashews” is W-210 Cashew Nuts that are more familiarly known as Jumbo-sized. W-210 Cashew price is not too far from W-180, that is to say, that it still does lean towards the expensive side.
