Rowanberry

Rowans are mostly small deciduous trees 4 – 12 m tall, though a few are shrubs. The fruit is small 4–8 mm diameter, bright orange or red in most species. Harvesting season starts in the late summer or beginning of autumn.

In food industry rowanberries are used to produce juice, dried berries and berry powders as well as to grain and dairy products. By-product fractions in berry processing are suitable for example for animal feed and cosmetic applications.

Rowanberries are rich in vitamin C and E.

Kiantama’s rowanberries are of Finnish origin.
