The Story Of Green Raisins

Green raisins — the dried fruit of white or green grape varieties, preserved in their characteristically pale, slightly translucent colour — are a delicacy particularly associated with the wine and grape-growing regions of Central Asia, where they have been produced and traded for centuries. The drying process for green raisins is typically more gradual and gentle than for darker varieties, resulting in a fruit that retains more of the original grape's fresh, slightly tart, honey-like character and a softer, moister texture than standard dark raisins. Lioncroft's Green Raisins are carefully sourced from quality producers to ensure their distinctive flavour and visual appeal.

In Afghanistan, Iran, and Uzbekistan, green raisins — known as kishmish — are one of the most prized of all dried fruits, eaten as a snack with nuts, incorporated into elaborate festive rice dishes, and offered to guests as a mark of hospitality. Their distinctive colour and slightly more complex flavour profile compared to standard raisins make them the preferred choice for those who appreciate a more nuanced, less intensely sweet dried fruit. In Western cooking, green raisins add visual and flavour interest to baked goods such as stollen, fruit cakes, and enriched breads, and work particularly well paired with white chocolate and citrus. Mixed with nuts and seeds in a trail blend, their tartness provides a welcome contrast. Lioncroft's Green Raisins are a premium product that brings a touch of Central Asian culinary heritage to every kitchen.

Convenient and ready straight from the pack — blends into marinades, rubs, stews, drinks and sauces across every cuisine.

1
Scatter into pulao and biryani for little bursts of sweetness.

Fold into kheer, halwa and barfi.
3
Snack on by the handful or add to trail mix.

Soak and blend into a natural sweetener for baking.
💡
Expert tip: A quick soak in warm water plumps green raisins and softens them — ideal before folding into cakes or puddings so they don't stay chewy.
