Medronho

The wild growing shrub Medronho (strawberry bush) is to be everywhere in Barrocal and also in the Serra.The fruits of these shrubs are collected from small farmers painstakingly by hand and distilled to make the famous fruit brandy "Aguardente do Medronho", being consumed mostly private. That is why he is rarely on sale on the markets. Very few farmers have a license for Distilling but they are tolerated to keep this Portuguese specialty alive. The brandy is also known as Mata Bicho (worm killer) or mosquito, because he "bites" like a mosquito
