filbert

Hazel tree produce

A filbert is a hazelnut, specifically the cultivated variety with an elongated shape.

The name comes from St.

Philibert's Day in late August, when the nuts ripen.

Filbert and hazelnut are often used interchangeably, though filbert technically refers to certain European cultivars: a bag of roasted filberts, filbert trees in the orchard.
