In 1818, Peter Heering was running a grocery shop in Copenhagen known for its homemade cherry liqueur, made following a recipe given to him by the wife of a former mentor. It quickly gained popular recognition and became the European nobility’s drink of choice.Rich and complex flavor profile - spiced cherry jam
Some liqueurs are viscous, sweet, neon red, and meant to be added with a soft hand to drinks or served over desserts. Others are rich and aged, resulting in an almost port-like profile. Sometimes the cherry is the base of the spirit, other times cherry flavors are added to a neutral grain spirit . Many cherry brandies can be bottled at around 25—30% ABV, while others can creep up to 40%.
Then there are spirits like kirsch : an unaged and unsweetened eau de vie made by distilling fermented cherry pits in an effort to subdue the sweetness.
