Wilderness Poets Raw Pistachio Butter is a delicious, creamy, naturally glowing green nut butter, made from the freshest California grown, organic, raw Pistachios. Ground at a cool temperature to retain the living enzymes and vital nutrients, and made in small hand crafted batches. Pistachio nuts are one of the healthiest, nutrient dense nuts to eat. They are rich in cholesterol fighting phytosterols, antioxidants, unsaturated fat, carotenoids, vitamins and minerals, and loaded with fiber. They work to lubricate the intestines and keep the liver and kidneys healthy. The first historical mention of any edible nut refers to Pistachios. Their archeological findings date back to 6760 BC in the territory of present Jordan. We use a touch of organic, cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil to bring out the smooth creamy texture and rich Mediterranean flavor of the nuts. Our olive oil is freshly pressed from the fruit, completely raw.
