The cultivar is a classic blackberry of the erect type. Vigorous shoots reach a height of 2.5–3 meters and require mandatory tying to a support or trellis due to high growth vigor and crop load. Leaves are light green, palmate, and acquire a reddish-bronze hue in autumn.
Black-colored berries with a glossy sheen have a conical shape and a weight of 3.5 to 6 g. The taste of the fruit is sweet and sour. The cultivar belongs to the mid-season maturity group: the harvest is gathered from the end of July through August. Fruiting can be prolonged.
The plant possesses high winter hardiness and is capable of withstanding frosts down to -30...-35°C, and also demonstrates general resistance to diseases. With proper care, the yield in the 4th–5th year of the bush's life can reach 10 kg. The cultivar is suitable for fresh consumption and processing.
