Black Currant

详情

Blackcurrant flowers are small and delicate, and grow in clusters of five to ten flowers. The blooms vary in color from yellow-green to reddish-pink and have five petals extending from a tubular stem. The round, edible Blackcurrant berries range from half a centimeter to one centimeter in diameter and are a deep, glossy purple *- so dark they appear almost black! Both the berries and leaves emit a pleasant aroma, and the berries have a distinctively tart flavor. The seeds of the Blackcurrant have a slight crunch and are highly nutritious. They are used to produce Blackcurrant oil.
