From La Vera in Spain, this Paprika is smoked slowly over a low flame for several days intensifying its flavour and colour.

Dulce paprika is smoky, tangy and adds flavour to roast vegetables, potato salad and rice or fish dishes. 

Capsicum peppers were brought to Europe by Christopher Columbus, and the Spanish were the first to mill them into a powdered spice. Today, pimentón (paprika) remains one of the Spanish kitchen's defining ingredients. Not far from where Columbus introduced the capsicum plant to Spain, is the Extremadura region, famous for its world-renowned smoked paprika. In 1993, smoked paprika from La Vera, in Extremadura, became the world’s first pepper spice with denomination of origin status.

Of all the producers in this area, La Chinata, a small family-owned and operated business, are considered to produce the finest Spanish paprika, owing to their dedication to quality and the patience and care involved in their traditional, artisan process.

Their peppers are oak-smoked for up to two weeks before being slowly ground between stone-cut wheels for 9 hours, until they reach a super-fine texture. The heat produced by the friction of the stones is carefully controlled, as maintaining a lower temperature releases the full aromas and flavours locked in the peppers’ oils.

There are three varieties of La Chinata smoked paprika, each made from a different variety of pepper; Dulce (sweet), Agridulce (bittersweet) and Picante (spicy). Their distinctive red tins are recognised around the world and are the choice of world-famous chefs such as Jamie Oliver, Nigella Lawson and Gordon Ramsay. Their new innovation are ground paprika flakes (branded under Pons), chunkier than their fine powder and offering a new multitude of uses.

Another premium product from the Ortiz family on Spain's Cantabrian coast, Ortiz sardines are the prime choice for connoisseurs. These sardines are prepared using traditional methods dating back to the 1800s. They are individually hand cleaned, fried in quality olive oil, then left to stand to drain any excess water, giving them a delicate texture.

Try using them in a fritter, stir them through your favourite pasta for added flavour, or on your toast for breakfast with a dash of Forvm Cabernet vinegar.

In 1891, Bernardo Ortiz de Zarate established Conservas Ortiz in Vizcaya, Spain, located in the Basque region. Since then, five generations have maintained and improved upon the artisan methods of production, leading to a delicious, premium range of anchovies and tuna.

Known as the 'Beluga caviar' of the anchovy world, Ortiz anchovies are prized for their superior flavour, quality and texture. The anchovies are preserved whole, layered with coarse salt and pressed for up to 6 months. This results in a firm-textured anchovy with a less salty taste. Each anchovy is then individually trimmed and filleted by hand, to remove all bones.

A versatile truffle seasoning that is perfect for seasoning hot and cold dishes. The final touch for all truffle recipes.

Giuliano Tartufi (tartufi meaning truffles) is the lifelong passion project of Giuliano Martinelli, who as a child, would go into the woods every morning with his trusty dog sidekick to hunt for truffles. Since 1991, Giuliano has devoted himself entirely to sourcing and processing fresh truffles, from a small laboratory in Pietralunga, in the Umbria region of Italy, using refined, artisan methods.

This award winning late harvest balsamic is dedicated to the ancestor, Riccardo, who created the recipe at the beginning of the 20th century. More viscous and concentrated than Giusti's usual style, Riccardo is obtained from sweet, sundried grapes and undergoes a longer cooking process.

Aromas and flavours of plum jam and red fruits intertwine with hints of honey and vanilla in a considerably viscous and sweet product.

Riccardo is perfect in a dressing for savoury or sweet dishes, a delicious addition to pasta dishes and excellent drizzled over steak or any cut of beef.

Ingredients: Must of cooked sundried grapes, aged wine vinegar.

Aging: In oak barriques, dismissed by wineries.\

The Giusti family have been producing balsamic in the traditional way in Modena since 1605. They are the oldest and most awarded producer of balsamic and have an unrivalled collection of antique barrels still in use.

Giusti select good quality Trebbiano and Lambrusco grapes and slowly reduce the grape juice in copper kettles until it is thick, dark and sweet. Unlike industrially produced balsamic vinegar, Giusti do not use pressurisation to speed up the reduction process. It is a labour of time and patience.

Giusti add only good quality wine vinegar to the cooked grape must, and then age it in traditional barrels of various woods - juniper, cherry, oak, ash, and mulberry. Each wood infuses the balsamic with its own unique flavour and aroma. Giusti have over 1000 barrels in use - 600 of which are over 200 years old. Many industrial producers have only a few barrels and large, stainless steel silos.

As the balsamic ages, it ferments, and the liquid evaporates. Each barrel is then topped up with balsamic from another barrel of different wood. Because each barrel contains a blend of vinegars from other barrels, it is impossible to determine the age of the balsamic in any one barrel.

For Giusti’s specially dispensed reserve balsamics, they are in a unique position where they can extract small quantities from their very old reserves. Here Giusti can be quite sure of the minimum age of the must as when these barrels are topped up, they are done so only with older vinegar, not young must. Due to the blending process, these reserves will also include must that is older than the specified age. Other producers do not have these ancient barrels and reserves. Gisuti are meticulous in their blending process and track everything; for them producing balsamic is a craft, not just a commercial enterprise.

From La Vera in Spain, this Paprika is smoked slowly over a low flame for several days intensifying its flavour and colour.

Picante paprika has a direct and silky heat to it. Add some heat to classic dishes like paella, winter soups and chorizo sausage.

Producer

Since the 1930s, and spanning four generations, the Pons family has been deeply and passionately engaged in the cultivation of olives in the Lleida region of Catalonia. Their approach combines age-old wisdom with cutting-edge agronomic practices, ensuring each drop of Pons oil is a testament to both the past, and the future, of finest olive oil cultivation.

Pons has won numerous awards such as the Il Magnifico 2025 for their Janiroc Lecciana oil, six prizes at the Monocultivar Olive Oil Top 2025, and an astounding 11 awards at the EVOO Catalonia 2024 Awards. Additionally, Pons has been recognised as a new member of the exclusive EQOO (Extra Quality Olive Oil) group, a distinction reserved for the best extra virgin olive oil producers worldwide.

The Pons family have always been innovative leaders and have created many initiatives to ensure a successful future. Their olive ‘library’ project saw the planting of 313 varieties to identify which ones would cope best with changing climatic conditions, were most adaptive to terroir, displayed resilience within intensive organic cultivation, and offered superior organoleptic qualities.

They have patiently, and over time, added to their extensive land holdings with the purchase of adjoining small plots. This has enabled Pons to embark on a project to plant over 1 million olive trees by 2028. To date, they are well on the way to achieving this ambitious goal. Recognising that water is a truly precious resource, Pons have state-of-the-art irrigation technology in place to manage and optimise water use sustainably.

Pons also uses technology to make sure the olives are harvested at their optimal peak, and once in the mill all production methods are co-ordinated to make sure robust polyphenol content is preserved. This is key to ensuring that the highest possible antioxidant properties and health benefits are retained, while contributing to a stable product with good shelf-life.

Alongside their exceptional olive oils, Pons offer a range of quality versions of classic Spanish ingredients including; vinegars, olives, capers, caperberries and sweet white garlic. A selected range of fabulous wines completes the Pons offering.

Based in Cheshire, Mrs Marion Darlington and her daughters, Sarah & Wendy, have been producing high quality preserves for nearly 40 years. It all began in 1981 when Marion’s husband, Tom, encouraged her to make a big batch of lemon curd with the extra eggs from their farm and see if she could sell it to the local shops. It turned out that her husband wasn’t the only fan, and the orders began to fly in, along with requests for homemade jams and chutneys.

By 1985 demand had increased so much that Mrs Darlington enlisted the help of her daughters and ladies from the local village, and her husband converted part of the farm into a kitchen. Today Darlington's is still a family-run operation and although the company has grown, the aim remains the same - to craft delicious products with a real homemade taste.

From the pioneers of the Italian Organic Movement. This long thin durum wheat pasta is made using methods unchanged for generations. It has good flavour and texture and cooks to a perfect al dente in 7 minutes.

The pasta is extruded using bronze dies, rather than teflon like commercial pasta, to create a rough, porous surface that helps sauces to cling to it.

Perched on a hill overlooking the rolling countryside that surrounds the town of Isola del Piano, sits a 600-year-old monastery that today serves as a proud and symbolic headquarters for Girolomoni. Previously known as Montebello, this range has been renamed in honour of the founder of the co-operative that produces these top-quality products.

When Gino Girolomoni, then the young mayor of the nearby town began renovations in the 1970s, the area was desolate and alienated. Farmlands had been left to waste, and whole generations had moved to the cities. Patiently however, Gino began to promote initiatives hoping to provide the region with a sustainable economy using traditional organic farming methods. The monastery renovations were completed, and abandoned farmhouses were used to house local farmers while they learnt about organic methods and sustainability. Eventually a mill, a pasta factory and a wooden storehouse were built to accommodate the growth that this pioneering co-operative was generating.

The quality of wheat is key and the area around Isola del Piano is ideal for pasta due to the careful rotation of crops throughout the seasons. This means the soil is always in a condition to produce healthy cereals. Spring water from the hills above the fields is used and some varieties of pasta are bronze extruded to give a coarse feel that adds texture and holds sauce when cooked. In the world of organic pasta production, patience is everything.

More than thirty years on, the Girolomoni brand and the surrounding region have become synonymous with organic farming and Gino Girolomoni is recognized as a pioneer of the organic movement in Italy. The co-operative has continued to grow with over thirty local farms joining and following its principles.
