Mulberry Vodka Liqueur

Here we go round the Mulberry bush....!

Our Tipsy Wight Mulberry Liqueur has a totally unique taste, made from ripe and juicy black mulberries. The liqueur is a gorgeous and alluring fusion of sweet and tart with undertones of soft woodland. It is delcious on its own over ice, but is truly fabulous in Prosecco or Champagne as a Kir style drink.

The mighty mulberry has been cultivated for nearly three thousand years, particularly in China, where the white mulberry contributed to the vast silk industry. Black mulberries were brought to Britain by the Romans as a source of food and medicine. King James I attempted to launch a national silk industry but failed because the wrong species of Mulberry was cultivated. Silk worms eat only White mulberry leaves! Today some of these long lived and iconic trees still stand in parks and gardens.

The famous song, Here We Go Round the Mulberry bush refers to one of these trees, located in Wakefield Prison in West Yorkshire. It is suggested that the female prisoners were made to exercise by circling a mulberry tree, and made up the song to keep their children entertained, as well as teach them about cleanliness and routine
