Why Choose Antona Quince Rosemary Jam From Us

Charles Antona quince and rosemary jam is one of the most distinctive and unusual preserves in the range — the floral-tangy quince character paired with the aromatic, herbal warmth of Corsican rosemary. In contrast to a plain quince jam, the rosemary adds a Mediterranean herb note. This makes the preserve outstanding with savoury preparations. As a result, this suits aged hard cheese, game, lamb and pork as well as a cheese board. Furthermore, quince and rosemary is a combination rooted in Corsican culinary tradition. Aromatic herbs and fruit are natural partners on the island. However, the rosemary note is elegant rather than dominant — a herbal complement to the quince. In particular, this suits Manchego, aged Pecorino and a good Cheddar on a board. Moreover, the 110g format suits a gift or a single occasion. Additionally, use as a glaze for roasted lamb. That Corsican quince and rosemary combination defines this outstanding Antona preserve.
