Types of pistachios in Iran based on appearance

As we said, the number and variety of pistachios in the world is very high and more than 60 types of pistachios have been identified in Iran. However, in short, Iranian pistachios can be divided into several types of pistachios: Akbari, Koleghoochi, Ahmad Aghaei, Badami and Fandoghi (or Ouhadi). Pistachios in Iran in terms of appearance are in two categories of Fandoghi and almond pistachios, which you can get acquainted with each of them below.

Akbari Pistachio

One of the valuable Iranian pistachios is Akbari pistachio. In fact, this pistachio has the highest value. Akbari pistachio fruit is almond-shaped, elongated and large. Its surface color is bone-dark cream and its core is purple-brown. Akbari pistachio ounce is between 22 and 24. This pistachio is harvested in the third decade of September, which means that it may be severely damaged by the summer heat.

Pistachio Ahmad Aghaei

One of the newest types of Iranian pistachios is Ahmad Aghaei pistachio. High productivity and relatively short time required for fruiting, has made it one of the best pistachios for export in the country. Ahmad Aghaei pistachio fruit is stretched and can be found from 22 to 34 ounces.

The skin color of this product is white and its kernel is red. If you are one of those people who pay a lot of attention to the taste of your food, among the types of pistachios in Iran, be sure to go to Ahmad Aghaei pistachios. This pistachio with its amazing taste not only in Iran, but also in the world markets plays a leading role.

Pistachio Koleghoochi 

Koleghoochi pistachio is one of the most popular Iranian pistachios, but this popularity is not limited to Iran. A large part of the production of this pistachio is exported to European countries. This pistachio is known for being large and of course expensive! Koleghoochi pistachio is round (Fandoghi) and large in appearance, and its kernel is larger than other pistachios. The upper color of the pistachio kernel is red-gray and the skin color is relatively dark white. Due to the large size of the pistachio, there are fewer of them per kilogram, but despite its large size and round shape, it has become very popular in the market. The taste of Koleghoochi pistachio is also very delicious. This pistachio is harvested in the second decade of September, which we suggest you do not forget to buy and eat if you see it.

Fandoghi pistachio

One of the most popular types of Iranian pistachios is Fandoghi pistachio. This pistachio accounts for about 60 to 70% of the Iranian pistachio crop. But why is the name of this pistachio Fandoghi? Years ago (1920s and 1930s), a farmer named Mr. Ouhadi discovered and identified this pistachio in the village of Fatahabad in Rafsanjan, and then he was not very creative; He puts his family on it and this pistachio becomes one!

For about three decades, of course, this pistachio has found its way to other places, including Khorasan. Ouhadi pistachio or Fandoghi pistachio, which of course is also called Round in world markets, is one of the round pistachios and because of this round and Fandoghi appearance, it is known as Fandoghi pistachio.
