We have two names for the two top quality levels. Each name is tied to a specific class of an international standard, and the quality report of every shipment shows that what was declared is what is delivered. The ordinary commercial grade deliberately has no name, to protect the value of the other two.


The daric was the gold coin of Darius, trusted in trade because its weight and purity never changed.
At Novin Atra it means: the highest standard class, plus a stricter internal criterion.
The cypress is always green; a symbol of quality that does not change from one shipment to the next.
At Novin Atra it means: standard Class I, for buyers who want reliable quality at a competitive price.
The internal criterion of each grade (colour, size, weight or berry count) is written as a number in each contract's specification sheet.
Grade, standard and test results on one sheet, with the shipping documents.
The aflatoxin test result is included in every pistachio shipment report.
Buyers may send their own independent inspector before shipment.
Novin Atra's food safety management system is certified to ISO 22000.
Ask for Daric and Sarv samples together and compare for yourself.
