I was on the garage roof again a few days ago & noticed the purple Heather that is on the moorland beside me has anyone made wine out of it before, i think there would be a lot of work as i think you would only use the purple flower part, anyone any info.
Thanks
 
ewanfish, It sounds like it could be wonderful. I haven't heard of using heather but I would imagine it could be done. There are folks hear that use orange,rose, dandelion and elder flowers. In my Elder flower I use 6-7 pounds of blossoms per gallon. It can indeed be a lot of work but, worth it.

Thanks for that might give it a try next year as i'm back at sea next week & not to much time this week as re engining a boat & might have more of a clue on what to do, starting a new recipe from scratch & start off with 6 or 7lbs of the flower, think i will have to get the kids on to that.
