100% spontaneous fermentation fruit-Lambic style
Limited edition of Boon's Oude Kriek made with the world famous Schaarbeekse cherries
With these Belgian cherries from harvest year 2018 we made this (very!) Limited edition. With 250g of fresh Schaerbeek cherries per liter, re-fermented in the bottle, this Oude Kriek has a very characteristic cherry flavor with a very soft aftertaste. This Schaarbeekse cherry is a variety tart-acidic cherry which was unique to the Lambic Region that was always used for Kriek. The supply decreased substantially over the years and became less common for use in fruit lambic.
To make a Kriek with these cherries is to be truly “Traditional.”
