The sourcing of Blackcurrant is primarily from France (mainly from the Noir de Bourgogne and Andega varieties, coming from Burgundy, Rhône Alpes, Val de Loire, and Oise). France ranks among the top three global producers of Blackcurrant, although this delicate fruit has variable yields. To ensure the quality of the Blackcurrant, Les Vergers Boiron is actively involved in the French sector, in collaboration with AFIDEM, which brings together producers and processors. We work with cooperatives and independent producers under long-term contracts to renew plantations and ensure sufficient production, while supporting research and development projects to sustain the sector.
The Blackcurrant puree is very rich and aromatic, with acidity and astringency characteristic of the fruit. Some “bud” notes of Blackcurrant are brought by the Noir de Bourgogne variety, while more floral and tannic notes come from the Andega variety.
The Blackcurrant puree from Les vergers Boiron has a very dark burgundy color, with a thick and grainy texture visually. On the palate, the texture is also thick, grainy, and slightly sticky.
In order to maintain all the sensory qualities of our fruit puree, Les vergers Boiron recommend to defrost the product in its original closed packaging, at 35/+39°F.
To unmold or cut your frozen fruit puree easily, we recommend one of the following methods: remove the lid, do not remove the protective seal and leave the tray at room temperature for 5 minutes; or leave the lid and protective seal on, run the tray under lukewarm water for 30 seconds at least before removing the lid and protective seal.
Defrosting and storage after defrosting are the user’s responsibility and must be done in accordance with good hygiene and HACCP practices.

Discover the inspirations and innovations of our chefs, who share their recipes and tips with you.
Fruitologie®, created in our workshops in 2019, is the discipline we have trademarked, dedicated to the study of fruit and its transformation into fruit purée. It is based on sensory analysis, a science that uses the human being as a “measuring tool”. Product characteristics are assessed using the 5 senses. Sensory analysis enables us to better understand consumers, so we can create products that meet their expectations. It’s also a great creative support tool for gastronomy professionals!
For the past 80 years, we have made social, human and environmental responsibility our core concerns. Aware of our impact on the agricultural and food transition, we have chosen to accelerate our approach and structure our roadmap. At Les vergers Boiron, we are driven by a strong desire to move from “raison d’être” to “raison d’agir”. This is why we have developed a solid and ambitious CSR program, involving all our stakeholders.
