Origins
For centuries, the red-fleshed cherry has remained the fruit with the highest worldwide consumption. The morello cherry, which takes its name from the Italian word for sour, has a distinctly orange flesh and is softer and less sweet than the classic cherry resulting in a fruity abundance of sour flesh. Widely consumed as syrup and in preserves, pies and puddings like the famous ‘clafoutis’, morello cherries are also perfect for making cherry beer or liqueur.
Discover how MONIN has captured the high-summer flavour of this fruit, which will perfectly enhance your cocktails, smoothies and coffee. Enjoy the gourmet flavours of MONIN Morello Cherry throughout the year in all your creations.
