Cherry Heering Liqueur

Cherry Heering Liqueur is a classic and essential component in many iconic cocktails, including the Singapore Sling and the Blood and Sand. Dating back to 1818, this Danish liqueur is crafted by crushing and steeping whole Danish cherries, along with their pits and a selection of spices, in neutral grain spirit before being aged in oak barrels. This meticulous process results in a deep, naturally rich, red color and a complex, bittersweet flavor profile. Its distinct taste balances the sweetness of ripe cherries with a subtle almond note from the pits and a gentle layer of spice. This complexity makes it a versatile ingredient in mixology or a delightful digestif. It maintains an authenticity and depth of flavor rarely matched by modern cherry liqueurs, cementing its status as a historical standard in the world of spirits.
