Botanical Family : Grossulariaceae
Plant part: Bud

Close to us, the blackcurrant is a vigorous shrub that is commonly found in our gardens and hedges. Native to Europe, Asia and North America, it appreciates rich, fresh soils. Its flexible and branched branches bear small oval leaves with a characteristic odor.
In April and May, the blackcurrant is covered with clusters of white or pink flowers, delicate and fragrant, which attract bees and butterflies. These flowers give way in summer to delicious black berries, full of vitamins and antioxidants, with tangy and sweet flavors. Birds love them and use them for food and protection.
Black currant is associated with protection, fertility and prosperity in many cultures. In herbal medicine, its leaves and berries are used for their tonic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Blackcurrant is also said to be good for the cardiovascular system and for digestion.
Strength and resistance, flavor and benefits, beauty and utility, blackcurrant embodies a harmonious duality and reminds us that nature offers us both what we need and what awakens our senses. An encounter rich in flavors and benefits for the mind and body.
