Alpe Pragas – Apricot Rosehip Fruit Spread with 75% Fruit Content
Experience the incomparable delight of a fruity spread from the Dolomites, combining honey-sweet apricots from South Tyrol's Vinschgau valley with tart-fruity rosehips. These carefully selected fruits are hand-picked, pitted, and gently cooked with a small amount of sugar and natural lemon juice to preserve the full intensity of their aroma. The Vinschgau apricot, known for its particularly intense and fruity profile, comes from Robert Vent in Schlanders, a renowned farmer in the region. The rosehips, a collective fruit from northern climes, lend the spread a delicate, slightly tart note.
Since 1994, the Gruber family has been cultivating berries in the alpine mountain climate of the Pragser Tal at an altitude of approximately 1250 meters. This climate ensures a longer ripening period for the fruits and a particularly intense aroma. Cultivation is as natural as possible: seedlings are planted by hand, the fields are weeded several times, and irrigated with pure river and spring water from the Dolomites. This results in a high-quality fruit spread with a fruit content of 75%, which is gelled exclusively with natural apple pectin.
