I've been looking for a shop that sells Cherry Heering since I got into a discussion about it with a friend of similar age and background. Our parents both had the stuff in their cabinets.

One can make a nice cocktail out of it with vodka.

Several large liqour stores do not have it; it's in their catalog, but out of stock. Is it still made? Where can it be found?

thanks,

We had this in our cabinet at home as well. I guess that dates me too.

As a kid the name always brought to mind some gross cherry fish drink. Actually taste quite nice.

You could always order it online

I froogled it and got a few hits. The one above is in NJ.

Astor, Warehouse Wines and Spirits, and LeNells in Red Hook all have it, at least. It shouldn't be that hard to find.

I believe that it was out of production (or distribution) for a while, but it's back on the shelves. (At least in the San Francisco and Atlanta markets.)

It's never been out of production, I just think that it's not that comon to use it.

It's produced in Denmark, and I guess that if the market in the US is not big enought.... problably costs a lot to shipp just a few bottles.

What do you use yours fore? I only use mine in the Singapore Sling.

What I think happened is that they changed bottle designs. Apparently, when you do something like that with a product that is exported to the United States, there is all manner of red tape to be jumped through. If you're not ready for this, it can mean interrupting the supply for a year or more.

Frankly, it seems unnecessarily burdensome to bring new liquor products into the US via importation. I know of a few products that have been in the works for at least a year.

I've seen it at quite a few NY liquor stores.

although I prefer Kirsch...Heering is pretty necessary for a Blood and Sand
