Where it comes from
People have eaten wild raspberries since the Stone Age. The Latin name Rubus idaeus means bramble of Ida, after Mount Ida, where the fruit was said to grow in abundance. The Roman writer Palladius recorded raspberries as a cultivated fruit in the 4th century AD, and the English word probably comes from raspise, a sweet rose coloured wine.
