Our Plum & Mulled W**e Jam 😀 was such a hit last year that we couldn’t wait to bring it back.

❤️ So much so we brought it back early this year!

Rich, warm, and perfectly spiced—it pairs just as brilliantly with duck and pâté as it does with your morning sourdough or load it onto a cheese board with cheese and crackers.

You can now find it on our online shop. Go take a look 👀
