Good corks are available online. I get mine on Amazon. And a good corker is essential too.
So easy to freeze! I've never tried "drying" them. Perhaps that's an idea?

Oh, you lucky guy! Haven't seen or tasted black or red currants since I was a little girl. They went right into the rumpot Aunt Cornelia kept every year.

These will be used for making wine... it is my favorite and makes an excellent dark red wine!
