COLOUR UP YOUR DIET WITH ANTHOCYANINS
Anthocyanins (pronounced anth-o-sy-an-ins) are naturally-occurring pigments responsible for the bright colours in fruits and especially berries. As protective compounds, their role is to shield plants from everything that the environment throws at them.
Anthocyanins, and particularly those present in blackcurrants, have a unique bioactive profile and punch above their weight because of their exceptional nutritional value.
One of the ground-breaking discoveries in nutritional science, anthocyanins are exciting international health experts and researchers, because of their universal potential for supporting human health and the meaningful contribution they can make to daily life.
POWERED BY NEW ZEALAND SUNLIGHT
These ‘colour warriors’ are stimulated by extremes of temperature, altitude and ultraviolet sunlight. The deeper and darker the colour, the higher the concentrations of anthocyanins.
New Zealand’s intense sunlight and long summer days, combined with cold winters and pristine environment, provide unique growing conditions for blackcurrants. The result? A berry fruit packed with anthocyanins and 1.5 times more than its European counterparts.
BLOCKBUSTER BERRIES, THANKS TO NATURE
The clue is in the name – ‘black-currant’ – which takes high rank in the berry world because of its superior anthocyanin levels compared to other berry fruits. This is especially true with New Zealand-grown blackcurrants.
Blackcurrants are special for more than this reason alone, containing very specific combinations and concentrations of anthocyanins, making them unique to any other berry.

FROM $53.11CRAFTED BY THE FORCES OF NATURE IN NEW ZEALAND
New Zealand is known for its purity and abundance of natural resources. Our blackcurrants are grown in the Canterbury Plains of the South Island, nestled at the foot of the famous Southern Alps.
Plants generate anthocyanins when the ‘going gets tough’. This region’s cold winters, long, hot summers and strong ultraviolet sunlight create the perfect seasonal incubator for blackcurrants. This is why New Zealand varieties possess many times more of these phenolic compounds compared to non-New Zealand cultivars.
