The Store
There isn't anything fancy about the Albay Pilinut Store itself, since it just looks like a home with shelves and products. What's somehow interesting about it, however, is that it resembles an ancestral house bringing back the old Filipino architectural feel.

Pilinuts
Prices: P70 for 10 pcs || P80 for 85g || P250 for 230g (as of June 2013)
Aside from the Mayon Volcano, Legazpi, or Bicol in general, is famous for the pilinut - a unique type of nut that is so tasty and crunchy. In Albay Pilinut, you are given a lot of varieties to choose form such as crispy pil with honey, pili butternuts (my favorite), salted pili, sugarcoated pili and more!

Polvoron de Pili, Mazapan de Pili and Pili Butternut of Albay Pilinut |
Mazapan
Mazapan is a confection made of ground pilinuts mixed with egg whites, sugar and milkFor the Mazapan, I was completely surprised because I know from my previous experience that I didn't like how it tasted. The texture was uniquely rough due to the crushed pilinuts, and even if the texture was like that, it still is highly enjoyable because they managed to make it soft enough to find delight in.
