Organic Dried Aronia Berries – Chokeberries, 6 x 17.6 oz

I tried munching on a few of these as if they were raisins, and found them to be highly astringent, but otherwise tasteless with almost no sweetness. However, not wanting to have wasted my money, I simmered them for a while in plenty of water, made a slurry of them in my blender, strained the juice out of the pulp, added a cupful of raw cane sugar and some wine yeast which I had obtained from Amazon. The beautiful dark purple-red juice is now happily fermenting in a 1.75 litre glass jug and is already pleasantly fizzy. These desiccated berries are not a pleasant fruit snack, but if you have the time and patience a pleasant dark wine can be made from them which is purportedly quite healthful.

Very good but also very expensive. I loved the taste and my body craves them. Your body knows something good when it has tried it.

I didn’t realize these would be so tart! They’re also a little bitter. I bought them to put in my salads but now I’m researching what recipes I can use these with.

Great product

It's bitter. Not juicy or sweet. It's pretty hard. I eat it because it is nutritious not for the taste. I put it in my overnight rolled oats so that it would soften. My dog likes it too.

I had to change my original review of this product from 2 stars to 5 stars. When I first tried them out of the bag,I thought they had almost no taste and was really disappointed because I was considering planting some bushes in my garden. Later,I tried adding them to a bowl of yogurt. Wow! What a difference! They actually have a wonderful flavor and even texture when they are slightly re-dehydrated. I have read about the powerful antioxidant quantities they have and now I must report. I love these little berries. Much more than even blueberries. I intend to order some plants and hopefully can grow some in my garden this springtime.

I bought these as I had run out of fresh Aronia berries from my garden. I love them in my smoothies. However, I realized that you either need to soak them in water for a long time to be able to use them, or you need to just enjoy the grittiness of these berries. Putting them directly into a smoothie, I realize they don't easily plump up or fill with liquid like Aronia berries do. They just ruin smoothies, the taste and grittiness are hard to enjoy. Definitely not worth my money and I wish I had just gotten one bag so I could justify this purchase.

These berries do taste incredibly amazing. However I’d like to point out that if you’re here for chokecherries this is not the right one although they share similar properties and a common name.

Just pure dried berries, no sugar or preservatives which is awesome. Great quality product. I make tea with arona berries, ginger, lemon and honey. Tastes great. Then I eat the berries. Hot water rehydrates them. Highly recommend. Keep in mind that berries are a bit tart, don't expect to munch on them like raisins. It's a good and easy way to include additional anthocyanins in your diet (mostly found in purple pigment foods)
