Ground, 250g Tin
Catalogue Code:2002346
- The panoramic Dota Valley provides the back drop for Finca La Pica, within the Tarrazu region of Coast Rica. The growth of this fantastic coffee is enhanced by subtle changes in the climate. Creamy and full bodied yet with a citrusy character, this coffee bursts with flavour and spicy cinnamon aromas to give a sparkling finish. Excellent as an all-day drinking coffee.
Damson Cheese
Catalogue Code:2000401
- The intense sharp-sweetness of the damson is the perfect partner for a ripe, pungent cheese, so we packed plenty of them into our exceptional Damson Cheese. Ideal with all kinds of very ripe cheese, such as Stilton and Shropshire Blue, it will cut through the richness to great effect.
Fortnum's Prosecco Valdobbiadene N.V, Zucchetto
Catalogue Code:2004252
- The new Fortnum's Prosecco comes from the Zucchetto family, who cultivate 5ha of Prosecco vineyards in the heart of the DOCG near the town of Valdobbiadene. In the glass it shows a fine and persistent mousse with notes of white peach, apricot and melon. Prosecco is the classic Italian aperitif and also works suprisingly well with Shellfish including Lobster, Crab and Scallops.
Gooseberry & Elderflower Preserve, 340g jar
Catalogue Code:2003929
- An extremely English marriage of opposites: one tart, one gentler. The result is feisty and wonderfully aromatic.
Lilliput Capers
Catalogue Code:2000507
- The littlest of little Spanish capers, these pack a powerful punch of flavour despite their modest size. Serve in salads, with cold meats and scattered into casseroles to give an indefinable flavour.
Pale Navy Orange Marmalade
Catalogue Code:2003912
- This medium cut marmalade was created to commemorate Vice Admiral Nelson's victory over the French at Trafalgar. Our marmalade contains the same generous tot of British Navy Rum as the darker version but used lighter sugar to give a more delicate flavour.
Red Pepper Tapenade
Catalogue Code:2000090
- Olives, sundried tomatoes, capers and white balsamic vinegar are carefully combined to create this superbly intense tapenade that will spread deliciously on bruschetta and bring a touch of sunshine to pasta and risotto.
Royal Blend, 125g Tin
Catalogue Code:2002079
- In this classic Fortnum's blend, low-grown Flowery Pekoe from Ceylon lends an uplifting note to the maltier Assam to make a very traditional cup of tea. First blended for King Edward VII in the summer of 1902, Royal Blend has been popular ever since for its smooth, almost honey-like flavour.

Spanish Marcona Almonds
Catalogue Code:2000454
- Thought by some to be the ultimate almond, Marcona almonds from Spain have a uniquely buttery and sweet flavour. Ours are lightly salted and are just the thing to eat with a cold glass of dry sherry, just as the Spanish do. Delicious with any appetizers, but particularly with pata negra, they are a sophisticated snack to enjoy before the main course.
Superb Dark Selection, 250g Box
Catalogue Code:2006811
- These chocolates have been enjoyed by Fortnum’s customers for nearly a century and so have been fully tried and tested. Each one is handmade in England using traditional techniques; for example, the fondant cream centres are piped into starch trays instead of plastic moulds and the ginger is cooked in small batches in a copper pan. Highlights include Rose & Violet Creams, covered in bitter chocolate to complement the sweetness, and Butterscotch Praline, a creamy milk chocolate centre dotted with pieces of crunchy butterscotch and nougatine and covered in our own blend of rich, dark chocolate.
