A deep purple-red, the color of cherries at their darkest. Maison Perrotte’s Sour Cherry Jam is crafted from Oblacinska morello cherries, cooked with nothing but sugar, lemon juice, and fruit pectin. Bold and vibrant, it strikes a lively balance of sweet and tart, with intensely fruity aromas. Serve it with a sheep’s milk cheese, as they do in the Basque Country, or spoon it over a cheesecake.
