Origin
Building on the popularity of MONIN Hazelnut in speciality coffees, MONIN Roasted Hazelnut was developed to deliver a more powerful hazelnut flavour which would complement even the strongest coffee.
The nut of the Hazel tree, also known as a cobnut or filbert nut depending on species, hazelnut goes well with chocolate. This makes it popular in confectionery as well as a main ingredient in the chocolate spread Nutella and the vodka-based liqueur Frangelico. It is also a popular pudding flavour used in meringues and as a paste in Viennese tortes.
MONIN Roasted Hazelnut bottles the intense, smoky richness of roasting with a toffee nose and sweet praline aftertaste making it the perfect complement to coffee and a stunning ingredient for creating dessert cocktails.
