Ah, cloudberries. Multe in Danish, hjortron in Swedish.

In Denmark only in Store Vildmose (Great Wild Moor) in Jutland.
Otherwise in most of Scandinavia, especially in moist moor areas in the
North. Also in the Baltic countries.

Like yellow raspberries, growing on very low plants. But a flavour and
scent that's out of this world. Try it after a meal of smoked salmon and
reindeer (caribou). Also a wonderful jam.
