Berrika, which sources produce from international farmers, also offers a range of other exotic items, among which are mangosteens, rambutans, longans, purple corn, baby mandarins and lotus roots. There are also acai berry and vegan mango milkshakes, gourmet cheeses like Boursin and Camembert, black and white truffle, imported meats like Iberico ham, and the popular Ben & Jerry’s ice cream.
