Most unusual wine

[TrallwmFarm]

Ive made banana wine and found it to be very strong and very dry.

Ive now ventured into Japanese knotweed wine.
Its free and in an effort to destroy this noxious weed I think everyone should get Demijohns out.
Amazingly its a very health aiding plant and is also slightly antibiotic.
In Japan they make tea out of the leaves. It contains the same stuff that red grape skins do and is highly antioxident.

Out of boredom really I have tried strange ingredients and often been very surprised.
Barley ( horse and chicken feed ) with potato skins gave us two gallons of very nearly a German wine.

Oooo

These sound interesting

How did you know that Japanese knotweed would be ok?
What else did you make....i love an experiement

Licorice and spearmint update, it's bright yellow , clear as a bell and very tasty so far, its not too strong a flavour (not ready yet but i really must keep checking it for info purposes of course lol) dandelion and burdock still tastes like D&B but incredibly sweet/ slightly alcoholic, think i'll be in for a long wait

I was looking at Rosveral (spelling) which is sold in pill form as an antioxident and then saw that some countries actually extract it from Knot weed and not Red grapes.
I looked a little further and found a wine recipe.
I shall be trying the 1st batch shortly but it looks ok and I didnt die when I stuck my finger in the top to try it.
