Maison Perrotte Tulameen Raspberry Jam

Tasting Notes of the Curator

Maison Perrotte’s Tulameen Raspberry Jam is a celebration of one of the most prized raspberry varieties in the world. Tulameens are known for their bright ruby colour, large size, and perfume-like fragrance. In this jam, their character is captured with remarkable purity.

The flavour opens with a vivid burst of fresh raspberry brightness: lively, tart-sweet, and wonderfully aromatic. There is a natural elegance to Tulameen raspberries—their acidity is gentle and clean, never harsh, allowing the fruit’s floral and berry notes to shine. The jam’s texture is lush and spoonable, with tender seeds that add a pleasant rusticity while still remaining refined.

Each spoonful feels like tasting peak-summer fruit straight from the cane—juicy, sun-warmed, and intensely flavourful. Maison Perrotte’s artisanal cooking preserves this freshness beautifully, resulting in a jam that is both luxurious and deeply comforting.

The Elegance of the Tulameen Raspberry

Developed in British Columbia and now prized across Europe, the Tulameen raspberry is celebrated for its consistency, size, perfume, and sweetness. Compared to other varieties, Tulameens offer a clearer, more defined raspberry flavour—floral, juicy, and delicately tart. Maison Perrotte captures this varietal’s brilliance through slow, small-batch cooking with minimal sugar, preserving the raspberry’s natural vibrancy and fragrance.

This jam tastes like peak summer—a bright, ruby-red expression of fruit grown at its best and handled with craftsmanship. It’s a jar that elevates everyday rituals and transforms simple dishes into small pleasures.
