ELDERBERRY
Full bodied Elderberries hanging black in the hedges.
Destalked and crushed, blended up with sugar syrup and fermented on the pulp. It’s as solid as a rock.
Room temperature (that’s my room). Serve it on its own in company like you would a Port.
Some people like it with Oatcakes and Cheese I believe.
Looks like Black Pudding, has a curious nose and a smooth body –
bit like me really, apart from the smooth body. 13.5% vol
