Juniper grows mainly around the Mediterranean. Mill&Mortar's juniper is the result of small-scale organic farming, producing high-quality products, thanks to EU agricultural policy funding.
Junipers grow on bushes that mature over 2 summers. The use of juniper berries is widespread in almost all game dishes, and is a favorite condiment of schnapps makers. Juniper is also used in many meat and vegetable dishes and stews to add a deeper, tart flavor.
Juniper berries can be easily crushed before use for maximum flavor.
