Did you know? The Brazil Nut tree (Bertholletia excelsa) is a key component of the Amazon rainforest ecosystem. Reaching heights of up to 50 metres and living for centuries, these trees are fundamental to the region’s biodiversity. Their survival depends on unique pollinators, such as orchid bees, and seed dispersers like agoutis. Beyond producing Brazil nuts, these trees significantly contribute to carbon storage and habitat preservation, underscoring their ecological importance.
Suggested Storage: Stored at temperatures between 20-25ºC in tightly sealed containers, away from direct sunlight. The oil will solidify when cooled below 10ºC and return to a liquid state at room temperature.
