Cherry Rocher Liqueur

Since 1705, Cherry Rocher—established in the Rhône Valley near the French Alps—has been recognized for producing exceptional quality liqueurs. Passed down from father to son, eight generations have dedicated themselves to the art of distilling and blending, preserving the time-honored tradition of fine liqueur and spirits making.

Since the 19th century, Cherry Rocher has cultivated its own orchard of 6,000 cherry trees in the heart of France’s Ardèche region. It takes 882 pounds of cherries to produce just 50 cases of Cherry Rocher liqueur, highlighting the care and concentration that goes into each bottle.

Crafted from four carefully selected cherry varieties—Montmorency, Shatten Morell, Oblacinska sour cherries, and Hedelfingen (a sweet black variety)—the orchard-grown fruit ensures consistent quality and flavor. This unique blend delivers rare aromatic intensity, while the deep purple hue is a visual testament to the richness of the juice.

Still made using an ancestral method once celebrated by the Court of the King, Cherry Rocher is a symbol of enduring craftsmanship. Each bottle is finished with a hand-applied wax seal—an unmistakable mark of its heritage and quality.
