This is an inspired combination of fresh stinging nettles and fresh blackcurrant leaves. We harvest our young blackcurrant leaves throughout the growing season and or nettles are hand picked from carefully monitored sites. It’s the sting we need, as it’s the sting which contains all the stuff which is good for you!

Many people have tried nettles as a vegetable (cook them like spinach) but the tradition of making ‘beers’ very similar to ginger beer has all but died out. But just taste this- the combination of the tangy mouthwatering currant and subtle body and depth which nettle brings is exceptional.Summer Pudding
