This beautiful rustic nut of Ardèche origin has a bright, streaky chestnut colour.
The Comballe takes its name from the Combeaux, farmhouse of the canton of Saint-Pierreville, in the mountains of the Ardèche and Vivarais.
Its very bright chestnut color features honey reflections with very characteristic dark and regular streaks.
The Comballe is a characteristic variety produced in the Ardèche, the largest chestnut production region in France.
The late developing pericarp, makes the nut vulnerable to codling and rot in hot and humid autumns.
