Bilberry is the crown jewel of nordic berries. It grows wild in most of rural Scandinavia and our 1st class bilberries are literally hand-picked in the wild, mainly at the region near the Arctic Circle in finnish Lapland.

It bears resemblance to common cultivated blueberry, being only a little smaller - just over a quarter of an inch or 7mm - in size, and taste is somewhat similar, only naturally sweeter and stronger. Inside bilberries are dark throughout.

Bilberries are a magnificient source of nutritients, the amount of metabolized antioxidants exceeding that of even goji berries. It's a well-known berry in traditional japanese and chinese medicine, and the more its health effects have been researched by modern medicine during last few years, the more positive health effects have been found to be absolutely correct.

Bilberries are a fantastic addition to even the healthiest of diets and by far the only factor that has kept it from gaining popularity worldwide is availability. Cultivation is extremely difficult and the only practical way to harvest them is in the wild, picking them by hand in nature where they grow without any human intervention.

Transporting fresh and frozen bilberries has been difficult and the majority of bilberries exported from nordic countries have ended up on asian high-end health food market.

Our unique process of freeze drying bilberries is a result of more than ten years of experience in scientific freeze drying and 15.000 hours of rigorous research and development work. We use only the finest bilberries that are grown under the arctic midnight sun, picked by hand from wilderness, fresh frozen with all the nutritients intact. Not only have we succeeded in preserving 94-97% of natural nutritients, the appearance is virtually identical to fresh bilberries and taste is naturally sweet, intense and delicious.

Shelf life for all packaged bilberries is 24 months.
