About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A mid to late ripening variety valued for its pleasantly mild, almost sweet flavour. It is self fertile and crops regularly and heavily on compact, medium length strigs. Growth stays moderately vigorous and well branched, which makes care easier in a small garden. A good choice if you often find classic currants too sour.
Noticeably milder and sweeter than early varieties, with a fine acidity in the background. Tastes just as good eaten fresh as it does in jelly.
