Apricot Preserve is our founder's favourite flavour. And it's always been the Bergeron variety for us... until now!
Having sold out of this year's production in a day and finding it impossible to source more of the Bergeron variety the search was on to find an apricot variety which will make just as delicious a jam.
When we found the Digat variety we thought it may be too good to be true- derived from the Bergeron variety but grown here in the UK in Kent. We immediately cooked a few test batches and were won over.
The Digat apricots are very similar to the Bergeron and cook down beautifully to create a soft set, flavoursome, fresh apricot jam. In our taste tests we've found it to be a little sweeter than the Bergeron Apricot Preserve. There are lots of apricot pieces in a loose set texture - perfect for spooning.
At Single Variety Co, we are passionate about creating a truly premium range of award-winning chilli jams and fruit preserves, making everything ourselves in our family run jam factory in Bristol. We use just one variety in each of our products - showcasing the unique flavour, colour and aroma of that single variety. Hence the name!

My pot of jam was very runny and quite tasteless.
As someone who grew up with a great aunt who made spectacularly good preserves and jams, I know what good is like.
Sadly this was not what I was expecting.

Apricot Jam
I absolutely love the taste of this jam also the fact that there was apricot chunks in it too. This one was also a little bit runny but apart from that was lovely jam.

Wonderful
I'm not a huge jam or marmalade lover but their apricot and plum are the best ever. This year the apricot was super as always and when the plum comes out I'll be buying 4 as last year I finished the jar in a week. Best preserves ever

Disappointed
My pot of jam was not set, very runny. Little solid fruit mostly like a sauce. Didn’t get the delicate apricot flavour I was expecting. It was sweet but not aromatic in any way, lacked flavour.

Which is why we work closely with our local suppliers and take great pride in delivering to you the very best products we possibly can.
