Scotty Brand cherries are a variety called Sweetheart which produces large, sweet and crunchy fruit. The growers studied cherry cultivation in Italy and the Netherlands before planting the orchard in 2012 and they now have just over 4 hectares of dwarf trees. The Scottish cherry season is short (and sweet!), starting in the second half of July and lasting for about a month.
Our cherries are grown in Perthshire, in one of Scotland’s first cherry orchards, by Rowan and Jennifer Marshall, a fourth generation farming family.
