Capella is a leading producer of water-soluble flavors. Tart Cherry delivers a clear, tangy cherry: ruby sour top, juicy berry core and a clean tart finish without heavy jamminess. Great for lemonades/sodas, dark desserts and as a counterpoint in vanilla/cream bases.
Use: Concentrate that must be diluted. Cherry is dose-sensitive—start low to avoid medicinal/almond edges and build carefully. Note: We bulk-source and re-bottle into smaller sizes (not the original manufacturer bottle).

FAQ
Is it more tart than sweet?
Yes—fresh/tangy cherry. For extra sweetness, add a sweetener or blend with dark berry jam notes.
How do I avoid “cough-syrup” vibes?
Keep dosage modest (0.5–2% in recipes), round with vanilla/cream and add a lemon/lime touch for clarity.
Does it work in cola/lemonade?
Excellent—combine with lemon/lime and cola nuance for cherry-cola, or soda/coolant for lemonade.
Good with chocolate?
Yes—0.5–1.5% with dark chocolate/cocoa yields a classic cherry-praline profile.
PG-carried and dilution required?
Yes—always dilute in a PG/VG base before use.
Original bottle?
No. We bulk-source and re-bottle into 20/50/100 ml for better pricing and availability.
