I have been buying Select Mixed Nuts as a gift for several years now because I fell in love with them as a gift from someone else! It's hard to find a blend of high quality nuts that includes some of the more unusual varieties like Brazil nuts and Filberts which are often a part of unshelled mixes. The quality and size of the nuts is great, and if you can find them on sale around the holidays, the price is OK for a gift. They also come in an attractive bag that only needs a bow! I always get great feedback from the people I share them with. The only reason I gave them 4-stars is because the regular price is a bit stiff.
