Botanical Identity
Myrtle belongs to the Myrtaceae family. Its accepted botanical name is Myrtus communis L.
Common names for the plant include myrtle, common myrtle and true myrtle. The fruits are commercially described as myrtle berries or myrtle fruit. Mirto is a name encountered in Italian markets.
In Persian, the plant is known as Murd (مورد), and its fruit as Miveh-ye-Murd (میوه مورد).
This product page covers dried myrtle fruit. The seeds naturally contained within the berries form part of the whole-fruit material; they are not a separately specified planting-seed product.
Myrtle berries and myrtle leaves are separate botanical ingredients requiring different physical and processing specifications.
For botanical reference, see Kew’s Plants of the World Online.
Product Form and Physical Characteristics
This product is offered as whole dried myrtle berries. Drying may produce a wrinkled surface, while berry size, colour, firmness and the proportion of broken material may vary between batches.
The photographs and representative sample should be used to establish the appearance of the selected lot. Colour alone does not establish ripeness, botanical identity or quality.
Please specify your requirements for:
- Berry size and general appearance
- Colour range
- Intact, split and broken-berry proportions
- Stalks, leaves and other plant material
- Fine material and dust
- Moisture content
- Foreign matter
- Insect damage and visibly deteriorated fruit
- Any additional cleaning, sorting or preparation requirements
The selected sample and agreed specification define the material supplied. Whole berries, separated seeds, fruit powder and processed extracts require different specifications.
Applications
Dried myrtle berries provide botanical raw material for several professional processing routes:
- Preparation of fruit infusions for further beverage manufacture
- Development of specialty flavouring ingredients
- Maceration for myrtle-based liqueur production where permitted
- Extraction for further botanical ingredient manufacture
- Laboratory evaluation and formulation development
Processing suitability depends on the selected batch, preparation method and destination-market requirements.
Flavour, colour extraction and processing performance should be evaluated using a representative sample. Buyers should establish the required extraction conditions and acceptance criteria for their intended formulation.
The dried berries are supplied for further processing and should not automatically be treated as ready-to-eat snack fruit. Suitability for direct consumption or use without a further microbial-reduction step requires separate confirmation against appropriate specifications.
