Vine Fruits
As the name implies - come from grapes. They are available wherever wine is produced but the main countries of origin are the USA, Turkey and Chile. South Africa and Australia have highly sought-after varieties of sultanas, but domestic use means there is little available for export. The world’s largest producer of sultanas is Turkey. Thompson raisins come mostly from California and Chile. Chilean fruit, like black bold raisins and jumbo raisins have become staples for fruit and nut mixes around the world.
