ExNatura&Co

Company Description

Here in ExNatura&Co we source all our products (juniper berries) from the wild mountain forests of North Macedonia. The country provides us with a great terroir and a high content of volatile oils in the berries grown there. It takes on average 10 years before a juniper bush starts producing flowers and berries, taking 12-18 months to ripen, so a tree will bear both immature fruits and ready to harvest berries at the same time. At ExNatura&Co, each berry is handpicked from the bushes by our enthusiastic experienced collectors and afterwards collected in large wooden sieves for cleaning and sorting.. The harvesting period is strictly done in the months of October, November and December since that is the most ideal time for collecting high quality berries (based on professional studies and our personal past experiences).
