I made an elderberry wine kit a while ago and promptly forgot about it (3 weeks in Iran meant I didn't fiddle with it either!).
When I got back I racked it and bottled it a week later, assuming that the sachets that came with the kit were no more than finings and a stabiliser.
Tasting the wine, it was fine and dandy so I ordered another kit. This one went to a mate at work. He lost the instructions so I emailed young's to get a set and they sent me a PDF with ALL the instrctions (how nice of them ).
Anyway, the instructions say that one of the sachets I didn't add was the elderberry flavouring. If this is the case, what the hell did I drink?
It was really tasty too! Anyone know what the base of the kits are? My mate is already convinced that he is going to not put in the falvouring!
