Cool, damp summer and comparatively mild, but still frosty, winters cause the undemanding cranberry plant to thrive. Almost indefinitely long shoots ensure this berry supplier’s fertility on the barren ground of the Northern hemisphere.

American native inhabitants called the aromatic cranberries “Ibimeh” or “Sassamanesh”. They played an important role as a source of nutrition and as a medicine.

With their light, firm, tasty flesh, the deep-red barriers contain valuable substances. They have a slightly tangy, fruity taste accompanied by a discrete sweetness.

Is your mouth starting to water? The fruits’ aroma and active substances are isolated from the cranberry extract. The biological active substances are therefore combined with the incomparable fragrance of the cranberries to form the unique “Cranberry” Spa Treatment. Vitalizing beauty hand-in-hand with a pleasant, fruity-tangy aroma.  

 Cranberries

The less well-known relative of the comparatively smaller cranberry is the mossberry or American cranberry (Lat. Vacconoum macrocarpon). The North American Indians use them to dye blankets and headdresses, but also to treat arrow wounds and to enhance  the taste of meat. Whether consciously or unconsciously, this indigenous  people also protected itself against bacterial infections, long before the discovery of antibiotics. The antimicrobial effect has since been proved: bacteria are rendered harmless by proanthocyane (condensed tannins), a substance contained in mossberries.

Mossberies also contain sodium, phosphor and a high content of potassium and vitamin C, making their anti-oxidative and “rejuvenation” effect so remarkable.
