Subject: sour cherries
With all the rain and talk of failed cherry crops here in the central
valley of California, I am reminded of a lingering need for acquiring
sour cherries. So, the 64k question is: where does one find a source
for sour, tart, or otherwise appropriate cherries for kriek.
Obviously, fresh fruit somewhere near Sacramento is best, but I am
willing to at least entertain other options/locations.
I am familiar with the dried montmorency cherries, but, alas, they
have both a somewhat raisin-y character, and are packed with vegetable
oil. As I have a rather large demand (enough to complete a 60 gal.
barrel) I suppose that we might be able to arrange a wholesale buy, if
there was enough similar interest, maybe even an economical one. What
say ye, collective?
cheers,
dave
