Pistachios have captivated the global culinary scene with their unique allure of taste, vivid emerald hue, and remarkable versatility in many sweet and savory concoctions. But behind these delightful kernels lies an intriguing story of their progression from the tree to your dining table. Pistachios are usually the most expensive nut, so why is that so? One of the reasons for the high cost of pistachios is that they are rare and high-quality ones only grown in some regions of the world. The second reason for the high pistachios price is the long time needed to grow them enough. The pistachio tree usually produces a crop in the middle of the year. This tree has a high product yield in one year, and next year's crop will be less than the previous year's.
