Jam, Chestnut from Corsica (Organic)

Produced by the family-owned Castagna di Vallerustie in San-Lurenzu, Corsica, this organic chestnut jam showcases the island’s rich culinary heritage. Since 2002, the company has specialised in crafting jams from local fruits using traditional methods that preserve authentic flavours. Made from locally sourced chestnuts, the jam offers a true taste of Corsica, where chestnuts have long been valued as the “bread of the forest” and a staple of rural life.

With a smooth, spreadable texture and deep amber colour, this jam delivers a rich, nutty flavour balanced by subtle sweetness and earthy undertones. The blend of chestnuts and cane sugar creates a harmonious sweetness that honours Corsica’s time-honoured connection to this essential ingredient.

Spread it on fresh bread, toast, or croissants for a sweet and nutty breakfast or snack. Use it as a topping for yogurt, pancakes, or waffles. Or pair it with creamy or mild cheeses for a delightful contrast.
