Jumbi Berry
The jumbi bush is a perennial flowering bush native to the Riverlands. It bears small berries that begin greenish and redden when they ripen, until finally they harden. They are edible while they are red and still soft, and have hallucinogenic properties. The effects range from mild to quite potent, depending on local factors and specific strain.
Hardened jumbi berries are still edible, but lose their hallucinogenic properties and are somewhat difficult to eat unless chopped or ground up. They are hollow, and quite buoyant.
Manufacturing process
Jumbi bush are fickle, water loving plants that grow along rivers and need a near constant supply of moving water over their long roots. They can survive along rivers in other climates, but rarely flower - most are the result of berries being floated downriver and sprouting but not thriving. The healthiest jumbi plants can almost always be found upstream.
In the Riverlands, jumbi berries are used to make jumbi-berry wine, also known as ‘Jumbleberry wine’. It is fermented until highly alcoholic and the hallucinogenic properties of the berries are concentrated and enhanced, and the wine is served in very small servings.
