Natoora Organic Greek Corinth Currants 200g
FLAVOUR IS A FRONTIER
Natoora Organic Greek Corinth Currants
- Organic currants sourced direct from a small scale producer in southern Greece.
- Their deep blue, almost black colour and intense concentration of flavour comes from the traditional natural cultivation and production process.
- The grapes are hand-harvested from vineyards that are entirely organically cultivated, with methods driven by the exceptional quality of the grapes rather than yield.
- All grapes are collected in the final two weeks of August, when the fruit has absorbed the maximum concentration of natural sugars and nutrients.
- The harvest is then hung in individual bunches under handmade sunshades - “Skies” or “Iskiades” - that protect the grapes from intense sunlight.
- After 30 to 60 days with constant daily checking of the drying process, the nearly-dried grapes are taken down from the sunshades and placed by hand in a threshing floor, where they are left in the sun for two days to complete the drying process.
- To finish, when the raisins are fully dried, the grapes are hand-grated to separate the stem from the berries.
