Raisins are dried grapes, with the drying process taking about 15-20 days. Evidence has shown that raisins were produced by the Egyptians as early as 2000 B.C.
Seedless grapes used to make raisins first came from Turkey. In the Aegean Region of Turkey, since the 18th century the major grape production is sultanas, which is a variety of seedless type.
Turkish Thompson Raisins are very popular in world markets with it’s similar taste and odour to Californian style although it’s reasonable prices. This variety is called “Undipped Raisins” as well as they are not dipped to alkaline olive oil emulsion (Potasa) before sun drying which makes the drying period longer than conventional products. Hayati Özer supplies Thompson raisins on a regular basis during the season to it’s wide customer range in the world markets.
