Juniper
Gathered, Not Grown
Juniper has grown wild across the hillsides of the Balkans for generations, valued for its fresh, woody green character. Unlike many of the plants we source, it is typically gathered from wild growing shrubs rather than cultivated fields.
This wild harvesting means availability can vary from one season to the next, and we work closely with producers to plan volumes realistically rather than promise more than the land can sustainably provide.
