Sea Buckthorn Berries
Ref BC1B5F
₹200.00
Small, intensely orange berries from the sea buckthorn shrub, dried whole. They are startlingly sour — closer to a sharp citrus than to any dried fruit most people know — with a resinous, almost tropical aroma behind the acidity. Sea buckthorn grows in cold, high-altitude and coastal regions where little else fruits, and it has long been valued in Himalayan and Central Asian households. The berries are naturally very high in vitamin C.
