The Story
Gennaro Fabbri was born in Bologna in 1869 and began selling cherries and cherry related items in 1905. For over a hundred years, Amarena cherries have been made by the Fabbri family using Gennaro's well guarded original recipe. Amarena Cherries are made by blending Prunus Avium, the wild cherry with the sour cherry, a variety of Prunus Cesarus, known for its tart and slightly bitter flavor. They are native to Bologna and are mixed after harvesting before being aged in a mix of water, sugar and citric acid.
