Anyone interested in eating primarily fresh fruit should definitely have some ribes oderatum because they ripen over such a long period.  I have fresh currants on my breakfast cereal from late July through early September, straight off the bush.  I have my morning coffee while strolling the garden.  When the cup is empty, I head over to the currants, put what I need for breakfast into the cup and head inside.  Picking is a bit time-consuming because not all fruit is ripe and they sweeten up only when they are very ripe - that is completely black instead of red.  But the flavor is wonderful.  I've had mine for 3 or 4 years and they are spreading a bit, but certainly not like raspberries.  Just enough to share.
