- Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2023These are an excellent choice. Top notch product. You can make old fashioneds, ice cream topping, smoothies or dark chocolate ganache cake and top with whipped cream, and these cherries with a sprinkle of chocolate shavings. You're even allowed to eat them straight out of the jar! It's an excellent price at 17.99 for this extra special treat. Do it! You deserve it.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2025Love these cherries for my ricotta sour cream cheesecake
- Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2020Slightly more candied than Fabbri, less cloyingly sweet than Toschi, not as difficult to find in stock as TraderJoe’s Amarenas, more supple in the manner of a crisp bite of fresh fruit than all of the above. Fabbri, while possibly the most balanced flavor-wise of these Amarenas are all too often mushy. My evening cocktail is either a dry gin martini or a rye Manhattan. For my Manhattans (3:1 rye:vermouth) I add a teaspoon of Amarena syrup. Rex’s syrup is excellent. The fruit snap when I’m done makes the whiskey-flavored cherry a treat on exit. For the price-point it’s certainly the best Amarena, if not the best at any price point. A true bargain garnish for those who care exceedingly about crafting a satisfying evening cocktail.
I intentionally omitted Luxardo and Tillen Farms, etc. They are maraschinos (marasca cherries) if that’s what you prefer. Tillen Farm’s Bada Bing cherries are also good, in a different class, and leaning towards the tartness of an Amarena. Nevertheless, I do find find these a tad too sweet for my Manhattans.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2022This is almost as good as the best. It isn't, but then it is much cheaper.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2024I bought the 35oz size, which is a lot of cherries. I drain the thick syrup using a strainer and give a quick rinse with cold water. The cherries are then placed in a pop top container, covered with brandy, and kept in the refrigerator. I see no reason for buying the more expensive brands. These have a good flavor and are firm. They continue to maintain their taste after 6-8 months in th refrigerator.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2025Great value for the price
- Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2022These cherries in syrup are SOOOOO SWEET!!! I used them as an ice cream topper, and I couldn't believe how sweet they are. Expensive and a complete waste of money! Maybe I'll marinate them in brandy and see how they come out.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2021Although the quality of the cherries appears to be the same, the syrup is darker and not as subtle. We did a blind taste test with my family and hands down everyone preferred the Fabbri brand. These however, did taste good in a recipe calling for the cherries without much of the syrup. They are less expensive, so in a pinch I would use them again.
