Cherries

Fruit pleasure with a stem

»Our cherries grow as high as the horizon. And beyond,« laugh the Master Growers Mehmet Cicek and Hasan Siwaton. In the mountainous region Yesilyayla, not far from Antalya, the fruit thrives very naturally and also at different altitudes. »In this way, they don’t all ripen at the same time and we can harvest the dark delicacies from May well into September.« Whether it is Spain, Italy, Turkey, Germany, Chile or Argentina, our cherries come only from growing areas where they feel good.

In rainy regions like Germany, we cover the trees. This prevents the rain from damaging the delicate skin, the fruits are harvested only when they are ripe and have a beautiful matt luster.

This is carried out very carefully with the stem intact, in order to prevent them from drying out. And this must be green, as an unmistakable sign of freshness.

No matter where our cherries grow, the fastest way is to go to Germany and Austria, fresh and sweet. And Mehmet and Hasan? The stroll across their sunny fields and look forward to new rain – the cherry blossom rain.
