Product Information
No matter how you spell it, the cumquat/kumquat is a gift of golden beauty to the person who loves the particular taste and texture of a conserve.
Originating in China, cumquats are grown in many parts of the world including Vietnam, Thailand and, well, Yandoit!
Great friends with various cheeses, our home grown cumquats create a conserve which enjoys a flirtation with yoghurt, and on very special occasions, adores smothering vanilla ice cream with its golden embrace.
Cumquat Musings
"For however many kumquats that I eat
I'm not sure if it's flesh or rind that's sweet,
and being a man of doubt at life's mid-way
I'd offer Keats some kumquats and I'd say:
You'll find that one part's sweet and one part's tart:
say where the sweetness or the sourness start." - A Kumquat for John Keats, an excerpt from a poem by Tony Harrison
