  8. These almonds are somewhat shorter in size. Mamra almonds have their roots from Kashmir, Iran, Afghanistan, and California. Mamra is somewhat costly because of the restricted cultivational area. Mama or Kashmiri almonds are higher in Carbohydrates which means it is going to keep you well energized for longer. No chemicals are used in Mamra, which means it won’t be hazardous to be consumed. That the Mamra are available in their natural state, they are a little bitter in taste. But I suggest you put your trust in nature and enjoy its delicacy without any artificial chemicals sprayed.
