660
B tier
660 is a Hawaiian numbered macadamia selection used in commercial industry plantings for buttery kernel production. It contributes to the diversified numbered suite that supports Hawaiian orchard planning beyond a single clone. Kernel flavour is rich and creamy when fresh—standard luxury macadamia character. Specify 660 when farm maps list it; otherwise judge bags on freshness. Suitable for roasting and baking grades. Keep cool. Numbered Hawaiian stock still needs the same cold care as anonymous style packs.

History
660 type macadamia was selected or named in commercial and orchard practice as growers refined regional stocks.
Orchard and trade grading spread 660 beyond its first districts where climate allowed.
660 entered wider export catalogues as named-variety marketing grew for nuts.
Specialty buyers continued to request 660 for predictable flavour and size in roasting and baking.
