The Lapin cherry is the first of our big three export cherries. They have a firm flesh with an incredible burst of flavour, very reliable, travel well and should be snapped up when available.
One of the most sought after cherries in the Chinese market, the Kordia has a long and skinny body, dark skin and is the sweetest of all the cherries.
Sweetheart Sweetheart cherries are large, tight, glossy and ruby-red to dark-red in colour with a sweet flavour.
Skeena is a very large and firm late-season cherry, with dark red flesh and dark red to black skin.
Staccato cherries are the last of the season. They are large, firm and super glossy. They have a flat heart shape and an excellent, sweet flavour.
Cherries have become our primary crop over the past decade. We have worked hard to extend our cherry season to meet the needs of markets throughout the region by delivering the best cherries in perfect condition.
