Love the price, size and texture of cherries. Nice dark thick syrup. The only thing that throws me off a little bit is the subtle but VERY distinct flavor these have compared to luxardo and fabbri brands of cherries. It’s not a bad flavor, it’s just different; and I don’t prefer it to the more expensive brands. The first time I experienced the flavor is when I bought Walmarts “bettergoods” brand of “gourmet cherries” and I thought the weird flavor was brand specific so I never bought them again. I tried this peninsula brand and I would have bet 1000$ they were the same cherries as the Walmart ones. Sometimes wal mart sources things from elsewhere and rebrands them. I was certain that Walmart bought these from this peninsula company and rebranded them “bettergoods” I’m not exaggerating- to me they are identical in taste, appearance, texture, etc. and identical in nutritional facts and ingredients except for one small difference in the sugar content. So I guess I was wrong, apparently they are not exactly the same. So the distinct taste of these cherries must be specific to “U.S. grown and made” cherries/syrup which is the case for both the peninsula and bettergoods cherries. That being said, if you like the taste of these cherries and want a solid dupe for a few $ less- try Walmart’s “bettergoods” brand of cherries. If you want to experience the “real deal” and don’t mind paying more, go with luxardo. I hate going with the majority opinion or trendy option but I can’t deny that luxardo cherries are the best in my opinion too but unfortunately are twice as expensive. All in all I think peninsula cherries are a great option for the price.

I love the taste of these cherries and also the syrup. They are perfect for a good Old Fashioned. I add some syrup to the drink vs adding more sugar. The syrup dissolves nicely and enrichens the color of the drink.

Delicious! Better priced than other gourmet cocktail cherries.

I tried cocktail cherries on what of the best old fashioned cocktails I had in a great restaurant and I just can't get over how rich, dark, tasty these compared to maraschino cherries. It gives any cocktail 🍹 an air of elegance in every sip. It inspired me to actually get this and make my own old fashioned cocktail! Impressed and worth the price!

Very good cherries for cocktail making, an excellent alternative to higher priced options
