To what taste are they similar?

I spotted ONE berry today....they've been in for 4 years now, huge waving bushes. If I don't get a decent crop this autumn, they are on the bonfire, as I keep reminding them.

I also have some cuttings growing away that I am going to insert into very tall wild hazel hedge along the site, among the brambles. They can do what they like there, and if they have berries I'll pick them - but at least they won't be taking up valuable space on my plot.

I've only eaten them dried..and they tasted like raisins with hint of tree resin.. :-X Not awful but since I've got plants growing in lottie too and I'm yet to get some fresh berries..I'm living in hope that fresh sort would taste better than the dried ones.. :-\
