Pairings
Paradis was poured as an apéritif at Restaurant Odette's pop-up at Tivoli in Copenhagen in September 2025. MURI recommends it with raw or cured seafood, and states that it was specifically tested with oysters.[1]
Composition & Vinification
Paradis is a sparkling rosé expression of fermented white currant, fat-washed with butter infused with foraged wild roses and blackened bergamot. Its base components are a white currant ferment and a blackberry leaf and linden flower water kefir.[3]
White Currant Ferment — Base. White currants are fermented with a special wine yeast to form the base of the blend.[2]
Blackberry Leaf & Linden Flower Water Kefir — Structure and Aromatics. The fermented white currant base is blended with a water kefir made with blackberry leaf and linden flower. The blackberry leaf contributes tannins that give the finished blend its crisp structure.[2]
Wild Rose — Aromatic. Foraged wild roses are infused into butter, which is then used to fat-wash the blend.[2]
Blackened Bergamot — Aromatic Depth. Bergamot is blackened through enzymatic browning, a process MURI likens to the making of black garlic, to intensify its flavour and develop a deeper bergamot profile. The blackened fruit is then infused into the butter used for the fat wash.[2]
Butter — Texture. Wild rose and blackened bergamot are pressed into softened butter over several days by enfleurage, capturing the delicate aromatics before the butter is used to fat-wash the blend. MURI states the technique is used to build silkiness in Paradis, and credits the butter wash with the drink's creamy floral aromatics.[1],[2]
Provenance & Sourcing
Specifications. Classification and format facts stated for the bottling:[1]
- Style: sparkling rosé expression of fermented white currant
- Availability: limited-edition, one-off special edition
Production Philosophy
What distinguishes the blend is its use of two culinary techniques rarely applied to beverages: enzymatic browning of bergamot, and enfleurage of butter with aromatics that is then used to fat-wash the finished blend. MURI describes the blackening of the bergamot as a process similar to how black garlic is made, undertaken to develop a more intense and deeper bergamot profile.[1],[2]
