Hi! I’m Nicola and I started Single Variety Co back in 2016 determined to make the very best tasting fruit preserves and chilli jams that you can buy.
My mission is to make really delicious jams which you want to use in all sorts of ways!
It all began from my kitchen at home in London. Visiting nearby farms (not that nearby, it’s a good few hours to find a farm from London!) I tried lots of different varieties of fruit and back home experimented until I had developed the tastiest jams using the least sugar possible, each jam showcasing the true flavour of the fruit.
I also visited chilli farms and chose three very unique chillies to develop my three chilli jams- one mild, one hot and one super hot!
I started selling at food markets across London, gaining lots of feedback on the flavours to improve the quality of my jams, and over time we’ve been chosen to sit on the shelves of many high end and independent retailers including Selfridges and the Waitrose deli counter.
Six years down the line I now have my own little jam factory in Bristol, complete with a team of dedicated jam makers. We are immensely proud to prep, cook, jar, lid, box and dispatch every jar we make, meaning we can focus on creating and delivering a first-rate experience for you from start to finish.
