Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was bred at the Scottish Crop Research Institute (SCRI) by crossing the Goliath and Ojebyn varieties. The plant forms a compact, densely branched bush adapted for small gardens and container growing.

The variety possesses good winter hardiness and the ability to self-pollinate, ensuring stable fruiting. Due to high yields, branches may lodge or break under the weight of the fruit. The berries are large, dark black in color, with a pleasant aroma, and are suitable for fresh consumption and processing.
