Dried sour cherries are among the most difficult dried fruits to produce due to the particular nature of their pit. The density of the pit is very similar to the density of the fruit’s flesh. As such, machinery alone is not sufficient during production and a careful labor manufacturing process is also required.

PRODUCTION OF DRIED sour cherrıes
Our dried cherries begin as fresh and ripe sour cherries that are then dried in the sun. They undergo four laser scans and very slow hand sorting at the rate of about 20 kilograms per person per hour. In every kilogram an average of 2 pieces of pit fragments are found and removed. Sour cherries are especially attractive to sow bugs and as such, processing them requires a long period of fumigation and a strictly isolated production ground. We can supply sour cherries through wholesalers to our customers’ nearest shop as well as to department stores like Costco, Trader Joe’s and WholeFoods where you can buy and enjoy them straight out the bag.

Health Benefits of Dried Sour Cherries
Dried sour cherries, also called dried tart cherries, are obtained from the fruit of the sour cherry tree (Prunus cerasus L.) and are a great source of nutrition. Eating 10 grams a day can already provide health benefits since cherries are rich in fiber, potassium, vitamin C and B-complex vitamins. Sour cherries are an exceptional source of antioxidants, most importantly the flavonoids anthocyanins. Research has shown that consuming sour cherries helps reduce inflammation as well as the impact of oxidative stress on the body’s cells, and can therefore prevent heart disease and cancer. Sour cherries are also rich in quercetin, another antioxidant compound which has been linked to improved immune system function.
