French Apricot and Lavender Jam

From master jam maker Bernard Le Gulvout, we are pleased to present a magnificent collection of his very best jams.  Mssr. Le Gulvout is located in the Langedoc Roussillon region of France and is an "artisan du goût" - an artisan of taste, and his family-owned company uses only the finest and freshest ingredients to produce the most flavorful fruit and flower spreads.

The apricot tree, which originated in China and was first cultivated over 4000 years ago, was brought to Europe by the Greeks and Romans. In France, there are more than 40 varieties of apricots.  For his apricot jams, Bernard Le Gulvout mainly uses the apricot from the Roussillon region where he is located.  He has found it to be very flavorsome with a good consistency during cooking. Its slightly acidic taste allows him to create a well-balanced jam.  The addition of a small amount of lavender flowers to his apricot jam adds a sweet, floral complexity that only enhances the rich apricot flavor.

A lovely, elegant jam that will be a delicious addition on crêpes, waffles, scones and toast. A magnificent topping for ice cream or a perfect addition to yogurt, fresh cheeses or cottage cheese.
