Do you sometimes long for that forgotten taste of real food you used to enjoy as a child? So do I and that's how Thistle Preserves was created. My company was formed in January 2009, fulfilling a long held dream to produce high quality chutneys and preserves using traditional cooking methods without the need for artificial preservatives, colours and additives.

Based in Angus at the gateway to the Cairngorm National Park I have access to a bountiful seasonal supply of soft fruits and I source many of my ingredients locally, supporting the local producers and farmers.

Thistle Preserves make traditional Chutneys and Preserves using old family recipes handed down through the generations. I use traditional cooking methods to make high quality full flavoured products that rekindle memories of childhood and days gone by. By combining the freshest of local produce with that "little bit of something different " I hope I create a truly magical "Taste of Scotland."

All my chutneys, jams, marmalades and jellies are hand made in small batches to retain the full freshness and flavour in the finished product and are free from artificial colours, additives...

They are GLUTEN and WHEAT FREE, as well as being LOW in FAT with the minimum amount of sugar required to act as a natural preservative.
