About Antona French Apricot Jam

Charles Antona is one of the most celebrated jam-makers in Corsica. The family producer is committed to traditional fruit preparation and PDO-certified Corsican ingredients. In particular, Corsican PDO certification guarantees the authentic origin of the key ingredients in every Charles Antona jam. As a result, Antona jams carry the genuine flavour of Corsican fruit, honey and herbs. No mainland producer can replicate this character. Furthermore, the Charles Antona range uses the classic confiture method. Slow-cooked in small batches, each jar preserves the natural fruit character. However, what distinguishes Antona most clearly is the bold combination of flavours. Fig with walnut, clementine with cinnamon, quince with rosemary — all reflect Corsican culinary tradition. In particular, the 350g and 110g formats suit both regular kitchen use and a gift. Additionally, the chutneys suit cheese boards and charcuterie as much as the jams. That Corsican PDO quality and family craft define every product in the Charles Antona range. That is why this product from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning customers.
