Irish Grapes

Irish Grapes are now in season and given the good July we had this year, our grapes have done particularly well.

Black Hamburg Grapes grown in Kilkenny for sale in Glasrai & Goodies in Gowran

It makes one wonder why, with all the talk about eating local and seasonal, we do not see more Irish Grapes for sale in Irish Greengrocers. They are reliable and easy to grow. These ones pictured above are Black Hamburg grapes, a desert grape full of complex flavours, tasting quite different to the supermarket pipless ones. They were photographed in the shop only an hour after picking. Wonderfully fresh and looking like grapes should look.
