The Maqui (Aristotelia chilensis Stuntz) is a tree that is abundant in Patagonia in Chile and Argentina, a geographical area with extreme climatic conditions and is one of the sacred trees of the Mapuches, the original inhabitants of the area. It is a small, evergreen tree that reaches a height of between 4-5 m. It blooms from November to December (the southern spring) with whitish flowers. The fruits of this tree are small berries of intense purple, dark and shiny color that go by the same name, in fact “maki” in the Mapuche language means fruit.
