Luxardo Maraschino Cherries

The first Luxardo Maraschino Cherries were produced at the Luxardo plant in Zara around 1905, likely to be the first of their kind in the world.

The Luxardo Original Maraschino Cherries are cherries candied with Marasca syrup, a fruit cultivated and processed by Luxardo for distilling its renowned Maraschino, and for preparing, by infusion, the Marasca cherry liqueur named Sangue Morlacco.

The percentage of Marasca cherries in the jar is about 50% and so is the percentage of syrup. No thickening agents of any type and no preservatives are used.
