English name: Rowan fruit, Mountain ash
Latin:Sorbus pohuashanensis(Hance)Hedl.Sorbi fructus
The rowans or mountain ash are shrubs or small trees in genus Sorbus of family Rosaceae.
They are native throughout the cool temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, with the
highest species diversity in the mountains of western China and the Himalaya, where numerous
apomictic microspecies occur. The name rowan was originally applied to the species
Sorbus aucuparia, and is also used for other species in Sorbus subgenus Sorbus.
Mostly the fruits are gathered from wild trees growing on public lands.
The fruit of Rowan can be made into a slightly bitter jelly.
The fruit can also be a substitute for coffee beans, and have many uses in alcoholic beverages:
to flavour liqueurs and cordials, to produce country wine, and to flavour ale.
