About our Fresh Bing Cherries:
The Bing cherry was our first foray into fresh, tree-ripened, picked-at-its-peak fruit. In late June, 2001, we waited with great anticipation for our first box of Bing cherries to be delivered. When we opened that first box of cherries, the aroma was enchanting. We immediately dove in and consumed at least half of those dark, sweet cherries right in the middle of our warehouse.
Over the course of the next few days, we ate our way through the cherries, at home and at work, sharing one or two with customers who happened to be in the store and a few with our UPS drivers.
In June and July, Washington-grown cherries are widely available in local grocery stores, and they look mighty good. So, every year, we buy some fresh cherries - just to check out our competition. And every year, we are happy to report that our Bing cherries - delivered directly from the orchards of the Stennes Family Farms - are just better. Washington cherries are bigger, juicier, firmer and more flavorful, and we are thrilled to offer them to you.
About Bing Cherries:
Bing Cherries are the most popular variety of dark sweet cherries. The taste of that mahogany red flesh is a signature summer experience in Washington State. Washington produces some of the finest cherries, apples and pears in the world, but most of that fruit is picked early - before the fruit is actually ripe, because it needs to travel by truck or train across the country to reach your supermarkets.
Bing Cherries are the first of the dark cherries to arrive every year. At ChefShop.com, they are available for just one day a year - the day they are shipped out to you.
Order these fresh dark cherries today to make sure you will receive the fruit the way nature intended it to be eaten - juicy and perfectly ripe. It won't take long after the Stennes' big, juicy, sweet, tree-ripened Bing Cherries are delivered for you to understand how exceptional they are and why we think they are the very best.
A note about our cherries:
Our cherries are of premium export-quality, hand-selected, cold transported, sorted a second time, and carefully packaged and shipped overnight to ensure they arrive at their peak of freshness and flavor - a level of care, labor and expense that is reflected in the price.
