But when we talk about Montmorency cherries, we are in an entirely different realm of wonderful flavor that offers a balance of flavor acidity and a significant range of possibilities that go far beyond desserts.
Montmorency cherries are considered magic for the craft beer phenomenon that we have seen exploding across the world. These tart cherries dominate the aroma of cherry with hints of wine and cider that teases the palate with a dry, lingering fruit finish. The cherries’ reddish pink color gives beer a warm color and adds a floral note, and depending on how long the cherries have been aging in the beer, you can detect slight aromas of ginger and licorice and mild notes of pepper from the flavor melding of spice and fruit.
