Irani Mamra badam are prized, non-hybrid almonds primarily from Iran , known for their unique, irregular, and curved shape, a richer, sweeter, and more buttery flavor, and a higher natural oil content (around 50%). These almonds are dense with nutrients like proteins, healthy fats, fiber, minerals, and vitamins, making them popular for snacking, baking, and their high antioxidant and monounsaturated fatty acid content, which supports good cholesterol levels. They are often cultivated organically and are more expensive than regular California almonds due to their superior nutritional profile and distinct taste and texture.
