Yamhill

B tier

Yamhill is a modern Oregon hazelnut cultivar named for Yamhill County in the heart of U.S. filbert country, bred for commercial orchards seeking better disease resistance and dependable kernels. Flavour is classic sweet hazelnut when roasted carefully and stored cool—aromatic, oily, excellent in pastry and snacks. Freshness still outweighs cultivar fashion. Process with pale roast, optional skin rub, and frozen surplus. Major tree-nut allergen rules apply. Compared with Barcelona’s historic large-nut role, Yamhill is a contemporary production workhorse. Use in cookies, cakes, chocolate, and spreads. Ask for harvest year on Pacific Northwest packs and taste before grinding butter.
