These cherries are the fruit of the Morangão and De Saco varietals. They are native to the Castelo Blanco region, where they have been cultivated since the nineteenth century. Today, bouquets of Cova de Beira cherry blossoms are a common gift for wedding couples who marry when the cherry trees are in bloom.


The cherries are bright to dark red in color, with long, thick, light green stalks. Their texture is firm and dense, and their flavor is uniquely sweet. These cherries can be eaten fresh or used in the production of sweets, fruit desserts, cakes, and liqueurs.

The characteristics of cherries vary according to their variety. However, we may single out two types. The old variety Morangão, round shaped, shining bright red and small dark spots. The stalk is of medium size, thick and lettuce-green. Being a white-fleshed variety, typically for industry, eventually it is marketed fresh. The variety De Saco (Of Bag) - whose name comes from its good resilience to transport as it can be carried in bags - has a dark red winey colour during its maturation phase. The stalk is long and lettuce-green.
