I didn't know that the Philippines had chestnut trees until now.
                   
"The Philippine version of the European chestnut (Castanea vulgaris)
is C. philippensis [...] The nuts are cleaned and roasted in the
same way as the European chestnut, and have a similar taste." -
www.agnet.org

I also came across a tree called the Tahiti chestnut but it turned
out to be a legume and not in the beech nut family.
