    Our "sweet with a little heat" jams are a modern twist on southern pepper jelly. Freshly sourced fruits are blended with a medley of peppers to create a perfect marriage of sweet and spicy. From cocktails and cheese pairings, to marinades and glazes for grilling, our jams are simply too good for just biscuits!
