Sipping spring: Freshly tapped Birch sap
Tapping birch sap is an early spring tradition that brings the forest's bounty to our breakfast table, offering a natural supplement to traditional morning beverages. Selecting the right birch, we drill carefully to collect the sap, which flows most abundantly in the early morning. This sweet, woody, and refreshing liquid, with its subtle mineral notes and slight sweetness, is akin to drinking the essence of spring itself.
