Giumarra imports cherries from Chile during the winter months. The two main varieties Giumarra offers are the bing and rainier.

With their large size, sweet and vibrant flavor, bing cherries have become the most popular commercial sweet cherry in North America. And according to a new study reported in the Journal of Nutrition, bing cherries may help fight the inflammation of arthritis, heart disease and cancer.

Also large in size, Rainier cherries have a golden skin with a bright red blush. Rainier cherries have high sugar levels, offering a sweet, delicate taste.

The red pigment in cherries contains anthocyanins, which have been shown to reduce pain and inflammation and are also potent antioxidants.
