Welsh Damson Extra-Jam
Introducing our newest luxury Welsh artisan preserve, a really delicious extra-jam Welsh Damson Preserve. It’s our limited edition extra-jam and it’s simply packed full of plump Welsh damsons. Autumn fruits both orchard and hedgerow grown are carefully harvested by hand. This delicious autumn preserves is grown and made all within 10 miles of our kitchen.
This is one of our most nostalgic luxury Welsh seasonal preserves. Bringing back wonderful childhood memories of eating juicy damsons straight from the trees growing in our orchard set beneath Cordon Hill. Enjoying the tart dark fruits plucked from the low hanging branches and then stretching ever higher to reach the next delicious one. We have many treasured memories of these dark-fruit beauties. Picked at their best just as the leaves start to turn in autumn. With the joyful rush getting them washed and prepared ready to preserve just before the first frosts nip the fruits.
We’re now supplied by local Welsh orchards that are situated within 10 miles of our kitchen. Once harvested the damsons are carefully sorted and washed ready to make this exquisite fruit preserve. The damsons are then gently poached to allow the aroma and full depth of flavour to develop, we don’t rush this stage. The fruit is de-stoned by hand and then it’s simply sugar and a dash of fresh organic lemon juice added to the fruits before cooking. The natural fruit pectin does its work and the beautiful, aromatic glossy soft-set extra-jam is jarred and labeled.
This is a limited edition luxury artisan made Welsh Damson Preserve is available online here and through our stockists.
