Schwartau Extra Plum Jam, 330g Jar (NEW JAR)

I lived in Germany for 10 years. This was an absolute mainstay of our family's diet! It still is! My wife is Austrian and we would never be without our favorite Pflaumenmus!

I'm crazy about Pflaumenmus, plum jam, the way they make it in different parts of Germany with slightly differing flavors. My favorite is Mühlhäuser from Thuringia. The Schwartau was the only one available through amazon.com the time my supply from a store in Phoenix (Old Heidelberg Bakery on Indian School Road)ran out. This product comes from a town near Lübeck in northern Germany. I use it as a bread spread.I rate the product "excellent". Of all the plum jams I have tasted this one stands out with a very unique flavor; unfortunately I can't describe the spice(s) that gave it this flavor (I don't cook or bake). What comes to my mind is Christmas and a touch of campfire smoke. I'm glad I ordered it. It's heavy, and shipping for 4 jars was 35% of the total. But one expects to pay more for specialty items....

It is not toad, for me little to sweet, Many other people like the sweet. Not me. Thanks

the best plum jam from Germany!
