October 22nd marks National Nut Day and on the date that's particularly meaningful for its brand, Planters reintroduced Planters Special Reserve peanuts. This limited-edition nut snack launched just in time for people to consider it for holiday gifting, and it promises an experience "crafted for the refined palate of true peanut connoisseurs."
Planters Special Reserve peanuts are grown on a small acreage in Virginia fields, and fans will note that the Special Reserve peanuts are larger than standard varieties and retain their natural red skin. Taste-wise, these peanuts are said to deliver a balanced blend of salt, crunch and creaminess.
This giftable nut snack is available in 13-ounce aluminum containers, while supplies last.
