The Plant
Plant part: Branch With Buds
Origin: France
Cultivated in France since the 16th century for its fruits and more recently for its buds, blackcurrant became popular after 1945, thanks to the famous aperitif of Canon Kir, made from white wine and blackcurrant cream.
The blackcurrant bush is a dense shrub with a height of 1m to 1.5m. All its aerial parts can be used. The fruits are known for their richness in Vitamin C and flavonoids. The leaves and buds, on the other hand, have very interesting properties. These latter, very rich in essence, are harvested between mid-December and mid-February to be distilled in our stills.
