The sour cherry tree, also known as *Prunus cerasus*, is a variety of sour cherry belonging to the Rosaceae family. It is distinguished by its compact, rounded shape, with thin branches and bright green leaves. It blooms in spring with small white flowers clustered together, heralding the arrival of the fruit. <\/p>\n
Sour cherries are dark red drupes, small to medium in size, with soft, juicy flesh and a distinctly sour flavour. Compared to sweet cherries, they have a lower sugar content but are rich in intense aromas and antioxidant properties. <\/p>\n
The tree is hardy and resistant, prefers temperate climates and adapts well to poor soils, provided they are well drained. It is a low-maintenance plant, highly appreciated for its generous and regular fruiting. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
The sour cherries are hand-picked at the height of their summer ripeness in our orchards in the hills around Alba, just a stone’s throw from the farm. The fruit is processed within a few hours of harvesting to best preserve its freshness, aroma and authentic flavour.
\nOur sour cherry compote is made using a simple, natural process: only fresh sour cherries and cane sugar, with no additives or preservatives. The result is a genuine product with an intense and slightly tart flavour, perfect for those who love authentic traditional flavours.
\nQuality is guaranteed by the high percentage of fruit used: to obtain 100 grams of compote, we use 145 grams of selected sour cherries, rich in juice and aroma. <\/p>\n
Perfect for breakfast on a slice of rustic bread, delicious as a filling for tarts or served with mature cheeses, our sour cherry compote is an explosion of flavour in every spoonful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8357,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[65,563],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-10764","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-confetture","7":"product_cat-le-originali","9":"first","10":"outofstock","11":"shipping-taxable","12":"purchasable","13":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/10764","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8357"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10764"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=10764"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=10764"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mprunotto.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=10764"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
