Black Elderberry(sambucus nigra) is renowned for its health benefits and is perfect as a pick-me-up at anytime of the year or to help you through the cold and flu season. It has been used medicinally for thousands of years.

Elderberries contain vitamins A and B1, B2 and B6; and high levels of vitamin C along with amino acids, carotenoids, flavonoids - powerful antioxidants that protect cells against damage. The purple pigment of Black Elderberry contains high levels of anthocyanin. Research has shown that anthocyanins in black elderberry can boost the production of cytokines, the proteins that act as messengers within the immune system, enhancing the body’s immune response.

Manuka Honey's active ingredient Methylglyoxal is likely responsible for its antibacterial effects. Additionally, manuka honey has antiviral, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits. In fact, it has traditionally been used for wound healing, soothing sore throats, preventing tooth decay and improving digestive issues.

Orange zest, cinnamon and star anise - while < 1 % of the total ingredients, these elements add the fresh zesty citrus notes

Cinnamon is also reputed to have anti-inflammatory effects and prebiotic properties that promote the growth of beneficial bacteria and help suppress the growth of pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, including spices regularly in your diet may help improve gut health.

Star anise contains thymol, terpineol and anethole, which is used for treating cough and flu. Anise also helps improve digestion, alleviate cramps and reduce nausea. Consuming star anise tea after meals is said to help treat digestive ailments such as bloating, gas, indigestion and constipation.

They are good

They are good, but too costly

Thanks Ingrid,

Glad you like it - aside from the hand-picked elderberries, it is made with high grade Manuka Honey - and the very fine zest of many fresh oranges, zested by hand just moments before it is bottled. To keep the quality high, we make it in small batches, so it is labour intensive.

Elderberry and Manuka new to me. Plus a big tick for packaging.

This is my first bottle of this and I am wishing I had known of it before. Only a week and already I notice a reduction in my sinus congestion and associated cough. I shall be interested to see what happens. I have been reading the interesting reviews and see there are many fans.

Also, the Ashbolt farm packaging is second to none! I have had several deliveries over the years - it always arrives undamaged and securely packed. So if you are concerned about this do not be worried, Ashbolt farm know how to pack!

Heather,

Thanks for your ongoing support. And glad you have tried our Elderberry and Manuka. We just love it and yes, it is growing a very loyal following.

Great product

Great product. I had HPIV. By the second week of coughing I decided to try the Elderberry & Manuka syrup. The order arrived mid-morning, I took it immediately and by the afternoon after the fourth dose, the cough began to ease and that night I had the first full nights sleep in 2 weeks.

Vincent,

Great news, so glad our Elderberry and Manuka is living up to expectations. I find it equally amazing. When I first took it, I thought we had discovered something miraculous. It stopped a racking dry cough with a couple of doses.

Glad it works for others too.

Cheers
