PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

LWB (Lightly Blemished Wholes) are whole cashew kernels that may show slight blemishes, light brown spots, or superficial discoloration while still retaining their natural shape and structure. Despite the minor imperfections in appearance, LWB cashews maintain the same nutritional value, creamy taste, and crunchy texture as higher grades. This makes them a cost-effective choice for importers and food manufacturers where external appearance is less critical.
