Apricot, Basil & Chvies Paste

Apricot, Basil & Chives Fruit Paste – Francis Miot

Crafted by legendary French confiturier Francis Miot, this refined fruit paste has been specially developed to accompany cheese. Miot was widely celebrated for his exceptional preserves and dedication to showcasing the true flavour of fruit. A multiple-time World Champion Jam Maker, his creations are known across France for their balance, purity and craftsmanship.

This Apricot, Basil & Chives fruit paste offers a beautifully fresh and aromatic profile. Ripe apricot provides a naturally sweet and vibrant base, while delicate herbal notes of basil and chives add an unexpected savoury lift. The result is a bright, fragrant pairing that enhances the natural creaminess and tang of many cheeses.

Designed specifically for cheese boards, this fruit paste pairs particularly well with creamy cheeses and delicate goat’s milk varieties, where the fruit and herbal notes highlight the cheese’s freshness and complexity.

These fruit pastes are completely new additions to the Miot range!
