Strawberry: For You My Love
Ships by September 23
"I see myself plunging my hand into a tin bucket, seizing a strawberry by the stem, and dangling it above my mouth, juice sticky on my fingertips like blood, and sinking my teeth into perfumed flesh: The cold explodes on my palate like a scream, stings my lips, crinkles my tongue, stains my teeth. I swallow the sun. Yes, a red death I can believe in." - Diana Anhalt, in her poem "Death by Strawberry"
Strawberry Batch of For you My Love made with Harry's Berries Strawberries:
Varietals: Mara Des Bois and Seascapes grown in Oxnard
Leaves the feeling of salty skin that has been well kissed.
Harry’s Berries famous Strawberries, ylang ylang extra, lush jasmine sambac, grandiflorum and plumeria (organically grown in India, not certified), Kashmiri Saffron (organically grown by Raqib Mushtaq for Diaspora Spice Co), and Kashmiri Saffron from the Saffron Don, Grand Cru Raiatea Vanilla, New Zealand ambergris.
"For You My Love" was created to express of all of the sensual and beautiful things one would wish the bring to their beloved: freshly picked strawberries in perfect season, saffron, and vanilla beans for the table while inhaling the smells of flowers on the evening air: plumeria blossoms, ylang and jasmine. The ambergris is less salt air and more beautiful skin smell. While I may classify this as gourmand, it is in every way a marriage of natural aphrodisiacs.
