I’m giving up regular jam!
I literally just ate this for the first time and had to dash on Amazon to leave a review.I’ve always wondered why so much sugar was added to a naturally sweet fruit product. Now I know, no reason whatsoever! I bought this in hesitation thinking it looked odd and without sugar it might taste odd. But the ‘no pectin, preservatives or sugar‘ made me give it a try. I recently found out that I am intolerant to pectin and all jams/preserves in the supermarkets have it added.I bought the peach one as I love peaches and it was different from your standard strawberry jam. I made myself some whole meal toast in the evening and spread this on in trepidation. I tasted a bit on my finger first and it was good...so I steamed ahead. Oh my god this stuff is so tasty! Who needs sugar and pectin?! I flipping don’t!I fee less guilty about slathering this on my bread lol and I will be getting more once I’ve ran out. I might try more flavours too.My only, ONLY complaint is the chunks of peach in it, I would prefer if it was smooth but that’s really just my opinion and not a fault of the product. I am the person that has no ‘bits’ in anything.

Adverse effect - in my case.
Sorry to say, I was really looking forward to this, as I love anything fig. However, in reality I found this fairly non-descrip and tasteless. It didn't seem to go well either with cheese or on toast. The only thing I noticed in attempting to eat both jars of the stuff was that everytime I had some I seemed to suffer greatly in the digestive department later in the day. Coincidence maybe, but I'm a scientist by training, and after a number of 'experiments' 'with and without', the results were consistent. Clearly, whatever the components they don't go well with my particular digestive system... Sorry. Maybe others are more 'robust' than me.

Leaked in transit
Lovely jam, but one of the two jars, despite very good bubble wrap packaging around the jars, had leaked. The lid had ‘popped’ its seal, so it was no longer factory-sealed and thus no longer hygienic either. Really disappointing because these jams aren’t cheap at all. I think the problem is with the lid - I have flown with many jars of jam in my life in my suitcase and I have never had any pop on me like this one did without getting on an airplane! And when you go to screw the lid back on, there is very little ‘bite’ to help it truly tighten, so I can see the problem. I think the seller did what they could but the lid failed them. I won’t be buying again online. Sorry!

Great product and delivery
I was worried after i read the others reviews that i may receive a broken package, but I’m very happy to say that it was very well packed and no issues, very impressed actually taking acount that are two glass jars. The taste is great a bit more sweet that i was expecting but is ok. For those that are looking for that sour home made jam taste, I’m afraid I need to disappoint you :/ is just to sweet . But still tasty;)

Best jam out there
Really impressed with this jam. First jam I've seen without pectin (which is linked to bowel issues and diabetes).Robust, fruity flavour and ideal consistency.

Home made
this jam was the nearest to home made I have tasted. Thank you, my morning toast is now gorgeous.

BOTH ARRIVED WITH FAULTY SEAL
Very disappointed here: after a long delivery period, both jars arrived with seals that gave no confidence at all--opened with hardly a touch. In the current circumstances, these went straight into the bin.
