Raspberry

Raspberry

Did you know?

Greek legend has it that the raspberry, highly prized by the Olympian gods, first appeared on the slopes of Mount Ida in Crete, hence its name: Rubus idaes, literally 'Ida's bramble'. In fact, the raspberry is native to the mountainous regions of Western Europe.

Sensual and fleshy, raspberries have a fragrant and tangy flavour. This small red fruit contains a moderate sugar content which makes it a fruit to be eaten without any guilt!
