The eastern black raspberry variety grew wild where I grew up in Vermont. In my opinion, they have *the* best flavor of any wild berry, bar none. Makes my mouth water just thinking about them....
They tended to have a shorter growing season than the other berries, and would dry out on the bush if they didn't get picked.
