Since the 1920s, the Imbert house has built its reputation around the quality of its range of products derived from chestnuts, until it has become a must in professional commissaries. Located in the heart of the Ardèche, the main chestnut production area in France, Imbert is particularly attentive to the selection of the fruits it uses. While working in accordance with traditional processing methods and continuing to peel the chestnuts by hand, the Imbert house has been able to develop to meet the expectations of catering professionals. Canned chestnuts in pastes, purees, creams, broken or whole, it thus offers products with a clean taste that can be easily worked into all types of recipes, sweet or savory, classic or innovative, and whose dosage is defined by the chefs.
