Brazil Nuts

Brazil Nuts – Wild Harvested, Nutrient-Dense & Naturally Rich

Product Overview

Brazil Nuts (Bertholletia excelsa) are one of nature’s most nutrient-rich nuts, renowned for their smooth texture, creamy flavor, and exceptionally high selenium content. Grown wild in the Amazon rainforest, these large, crescent-shaped kernels are a natural source of protein, healthy fats, and antioxidants. Their rich, earthy aroma and high oil content make them ideal for gourmet snacks, bakery, and health-food formulations.

At Tuna Sourcing, we supply ISO 22000-certified Brazil Nuts sustainably harvested from the Amazon regions of Brazil, Bolivia, and Peru. Each batch is hand-collected, mechanically shelled, and carefully sorted to preserve purity, freshness, and flavor. Available in raw, roasted, or broken forms, our Brazil nuts meet international export standards and are ideal for food manufacturers, wholesalers, and private-label brands.
