Today Rainier cherries are primarily grown in Washington state and throughout the Pacific NW.
These are considered a premium sweet cherry variety as they are only produced in limited quantities each season and are difficult to cultivate. A quarter to one-third of the crop is often destroyed by birds 🐦 Another
quarter of Washington's sweet cherry crop is exported.
In Japan, for example, a single, flawless Rainier may cost and more.
The fruits have a delicately floral flavor with notes of peaches and a caramel-like finish on the palate. S
o juicy and sweet you’ll think you’ve died and gone to heaven! L
ow acidity and one of the highest sugar contents of sweet cherry varieties, ranging from 17 to 28 Brix.
I noticed light brown spots on my Rainier cherries. What are they?
Although it looks like a flaw, the light brown spots on these delicate, light-skinned cherries are an extra-sweet sugar spot. This is a sign of high sugar content, rather than bruising.
So don’t let them keep you away.
Enjoy now before it’s too late!
