“choice shoot”
In context — Isaiah 16:8
For the fields of Heshbon are withered, and the vine of Sibmah languishes; the lords of the nations have struck its choice branches . They reached as far as Jazer and strayed into the wilderness; its tendrils are spread out, and they have crossed over the sea.
