Our Three Varieties

Three varieties, one family. Each grown with the same attention to soil, water and harvest timing that has defined Solana Nuts since 1987.

Prunus dulcis cv. Solana

Solana Almond

The round, sweet almond of Spanish tradition

The Solana variety is prized across Europe for its round, plump kernel and exceptionally sweet flavour with low bitterness. Naturally suited to the Mediterranean climate of our Spanish finca, Solana almonds are harvested with care each autumn and dispatched fresh to our European buyers.

Lauranne Almond

Large, sweet, self-fertile — Europe's favourite variety

Lauranne is a Franco-Spanish cross prized throughout Europe for its large kernel size, sweet taste and intact skin after baking — which commands premium prices. One of the most widely planted varieties in irrigated Spanish orchards, Lauranne is ideal for retail snack packs, chocolate coating and nougat production.

Chandler Walnut

Mild, buttery, light-coloured — the premium walnut benchmark

Developed at UC Davis and now the world's most commercially planted walnut variety, the Chandler is celebrated for its thin shell, extra-light kernel colour and mild buttery flavour with no bitterness. Our Chandler walnuts are grown on our Spanish finca under optimal conditions, giving consistently large, light kernels that fetch top market prices across Germany, France and the UK.

Why Spanish Almonds?

Spanish almonds vs California:
what makes ours different

Hard-shell, flavour-rich varieties

Unlike Californian almonds (soft-shell, large-volume), Spanish varieties like Solana and Lauranne have a hard, non-porous shell that acts as a natural barrier against pests and chemicals — so no post-harvest fumigation is required.

Spanish almonds also have a higher oil content, giving them a richer, more complex flavour that patissiers, chocolatiers and fine-food retailers across Europe specifically seek out.

Chandler: the world's #1 walnut variety

The Chandler walnut was developed at UC Davis and is now the most planted commercial walnut globally. Its key attributes — thin shell, extra-light kernel colour and mild buttery flavour with zero bitterness — make it the benchmark for premium European retail.

Our Chandler walnuts are grown in Spain's ideal climate, hand-inspected for colour grade and packed fresh — giving you the quality that commands the highest market prices.

Our Story

Three generations.
One finca.

In 1987, our grandfather planted the first Solana almond trees on a sun-baked hillside in Spain. Today, three generations later, we still harvest those same trees — plus the Lauranne and Chandler varieties we've added as demand from European buyers has grown.

We're not a trading company. We don't buy and resell almonds from other growers. Everything on this website comes from our own land, picked by our own family, processed in our own facility and shipped directly to you.

That directness means you get the freshest product, honest pricing and a real person to talk to — not a call-centre. When you order from Solana Nuts, you can trace every almond back to the exact row of trees it came from.
