Black Currant

The blackcurrant plant (Ribes nigrum), also known as black currant or cassis, is a deciduous shrub growing 1.5m high and grown for its edible berries. It is widely cultivated both commercially and domestically. The raw fruit is particularly rich in vitamin C and polyphenols. Blackcurrants can be eaten raw but are usually cooked in sweet or savoury dishes. They are used to make jams, preserves, and syrups and are grown commercially for the juice market.
