Premium or first grade apricot kernels are hand-sorted to the highest of standards. Inferior grades are removed by hand, leaving only the best of each batch. They must be free of blemished and substandard seed, shell and other contaminants, such as moth eggs, moth webbing and mould. These contaminants can be found in the other "premium" kernel available, which, of course, means they are not truly premium or first grade. We guarantee none of these undesirables will be found among our kernels
