Source of Elderberry

The Elder trees thrive in the cold climate of Austria and neighbouring Hungary. Originally selected and cultivated for the high anthocyanin or colour unit content, providing a natural colouring ingredient to foods, beverage and cosmetics. The black elderberry has been widely studied for its health benefits as a dietary supplement.
Elderberry Australia supply IQF fruit, juice concentrate and specialty extracts predominantly sourced from Austria, the largest elderberry producer. The Haschberg variety of elderberry is used in juices, foods and nutraceuticals due to it's high anthocyanin content which provides its famous intense dark colour.
