AUCHAN Frozen Whole Black Chokeberry - 300g (best before 01.03.28)

AUCHAN "Krasnaya Ptitsa" Frozen Whole Black Chokeberry (Chernoplodnaya Ryabina / Aronia) brings a deeply flavorful and highly therapeutic northern berry directly to your kitchen. Sourced from select, premium crops at the peak of autumn ripeness, these glossy, deep-purple berries undergo advanced individual quick-freezing (IQF). This process carefully preserves their plump, whole structural integrity, vibrant dark color, and their uniquely robust, tart flavor profile with its characteristic pleasantly astringent undertones. Extremely rich in vitamins and polyphenols, chokeberry is a powerhouse of natural health benefits.

Ingredients:

100% natural whole black chokeberries (Aronia). No added sugar. No preservatives, artificial colors, or GMOs. Naturally gluten-free and vegan. Flash-frozen to lock in nutrients.

Quick fact:

The "Krasnaya Ptitsa" (Red Bird) premium selection ensures the berries are handled gently. Black chokeberry is world-renowned for having one of the highest recorded antioxidant values (ORAC value) among all fruits. The natural astringency comes from healthy tannins, which soften beautifully and become sweeter after undergoing the flash-freezing process.
