Loquat Jam

Loquats are one of those ancient, forgotten fruits. Our loquat jam evokes memories of Medieval times, of days long past. A rare opportunity to rediscover the flavour of this fruit that grows in our woods. A taste, sweet and slightly tangy, hard to describe, because it is one of a kind. We gather our berries as gifts and customs inherited from other peoples. We put extreme care and gratitude into everything we do. Among the properties of loquats: ripe fruits are attributed diuretic properties. They contain a certain amount of tannins. Ripe fruits have a darker colour. As a result of ripening, the flavour becomes very sweet, as well as exquisite. Its flavour is hard to describe because it is unique, tending to be sweet, and it is rarely eaten as fresh fruit, being more commonly used as a jelly or jam with an intense taste. Carefully gathered in the woods surrounding the farm, the aroma and flavour of this fruit takes our minds on a walk through the Tuscan woods. How to enjoy it: Perfect for breakfast with fresh bread or spread on rusks. For children's snacks, for a quick bite. It works very well as a filling for cakes and tarts, giving a unique touch of flavour. All our jams have a sugar percentage ranging from 10% to 25% maximum, depending on the ripeness of the fruit. We add no thickeners, colourings or artificial flavourings. Gluten free.
