It has long been known that the fertility of the soil where a crop is grown has a profound impact on both the flavor and the nutritional value of that crop.

Most Imported chestnuts - as well as most chestnuts grown on the West Coast are either European, Japanese, or European by Japanese hybrid chestnuts. European and Japanese (and their hybrids) are often larger in size, but almost always less sweet, more bland, more difficult to peel, and more subject to spoilage compared to Chinese chestnuts.
