Default Old blackcurrants

I seem to have missed most of the picking season for blackcurrants.
They are all dried up on the bushes. :-(
Is there any reason not to harvest them in this state and then dry
them a bit more and eat them as dried fruit?


My one drops the ripe berries, so yours (or mine) have IMO some sort of
disease or pest, and I wouldn't risk it yet.
