Aronia berry
Aronia melanocarpa (Michx.)
Aronia, also known as chokeberry, originates from the eastern coast of North America, specifically in Canada and the USA, with a significant presence in the Ontario region. This wild-growing plant, once considered a gift from the Great Spirit by Native Americans, was valued for its health benefits.
Since arriving in Poland in the 1970s, Aronia has found a new home. Today, Poland is the world’s largest supplier, producing about 75% of the global supply. Our farmers are true experts in chokeberry cultivation, drawing on decades of experience.
Aronia is renowned for being one of the best sources of antioxidants. It is often hailed as the healthiest berry in the world, boasting one of the highest scores on the ORAC scale. This means it has an exceptional ability to absorb reactive oxygen species (ROS), making it a powerful ally in promoting health and well-being.
