In earlier times, it was also known as the „little man’s oak“.Due to the rather high location requirements, wild cherries need a lot of space and high-quality soil. The blossoms are magnificent and an important source of food for many bees and insects. The harvest of wild cherries is much later than that of cultivated cherries and often lasts until the end of July in higher mountain areas.The dark red fruits are very small and have a relatively large cherry stone. They hang quite high, as the tree is fast-growing and only develops thicker branches from a certain height. Every good distiller or fruit processor knows that, despite the laborious harvest, they are rewarded with the highest possible fruit quality and that wild cherries have unique fruit aromas.WILD cherryBouquet of dried black berries, fresh tobacco, peat and graphite.
