Grapes are also a source of calcium and reduce the body's overall acidity. Their polyphenols protect against free radicals. Finally, grapes have anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.

History
Grapes, a product of the vine, are one of the oldest known fruits...
Archaeologists agree that the cradle of the first wild vines (Vitis sylvestris) was in the Mediterranean region, and that its fruit, grapes, was eaten by man as early as the Palaeolithic era... Then, in the Neolithic period (around 8,000-4,000 BC), in Asia Minor (between the Arabian Gulf and the Black Sea), man began to cultivate vines. The first grape varieties were spread around the Mediterranean by the Phoenicians, Greeks and Romans. Indeed, the Greeks were fervent consumers of wine (as attested by mythology and the cult of Dyonisos or Bacchus...). The Egyptians and Romans also consumed grapes, whether fresh, dried (apyrene varieties - i.e. seedless grapes - have been used since Antiquity to produce raisins) or in the form of wine; the latter greatly contributed to the spread of its cultivation throughout the Empire.
Originating from Uzbekistan, the Green Khorog Grape derives its unique appearance and delicious aroma from the manual work carried out during its growth. To preserve this unique color, the hand-picked grapes are dried slowly and gently in the shade.
With its emerald color and sweet, honey-like taste, this little culinary jewel is the perfect accompaniment to your aperitifs and snacks. Bring a touch of the Arabian Nights into your kitchen!
