Originally native to the forests of Canada, the dark purple, almost black chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa) is now also widely grown in Europe. The “super berries” also thrive very well with our organic Aronia farmers in Switzerland. They deliver a good harvest every summer, which we process into our Aronia products. The numerous positive properties attributed to chokeberry berries make them more and more popular.

Due to its durability and strength, chokeberry plants have completely arrived in Germany within a short time. The plant is hardly susceptible to diseases and can withstand very frosty winters. Temperatures up to -35 degrees, it quite manages. This makes the berry so popular and easy to care for that it can now even be found in private German gardens. It is recognizable mainly by its splendid white blossom in May and the small, dark purple berries between August and September. In addition to the particularly intense color, the berries are also characterized by their fine-tart, tart taste. It usually lasts even in small quantities, so that the addition of chokeberry can give a certain kick to many dishes.
