FRESH HAZELNUTS. AT THE START OF THE SEASON, COBNUTS HAVE GREEN HUSKS AND SHELLS, AND PALE MILKY KERNELS; AS IT PROGRESSES, THE SHELLS TURN BROWN AND THE FLAVOUR OF THE KERNELS BECOMES MORE INTENSE. THE KENTISH COB PRODUCES A MEDIUM-LARGE NUT, THIN-SHELLED AND ELONGATED WITH A LONG HUSK, GROWING IN CLUSTERS OF 2-5 FRUITS. THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CULTIVARS ARE SHAPE AND SIZE. FLAVOUR: MILKY, SLIGHTLY SWEET, CRUNCHY TEXTURE.
