NASHTOWN CASTLE PICKLES, JAMS, JELLIES & PRESERVES. 
Home Grown, Home Made with Kilkenny Grown Fruit and Vegetables.
Where possible, the ingredients in our preserves are garden grown, foraged or locally grown. Real ingredients for real food. They are generally home grown in County Kilkenny and the preserves are always home made. Slowly and carefully created in our traditional country kitchen, using an old fashioned Aga cooker.

Nashtown Castle Preserves freshly made in our country kitchen

We have to face up to the fact that some ingredients just cannot be grown in Ireland. So, when we use imported Seville oranges to make marmalade and when we use spices, we make an effort to source the best quality available. In the case of spices, we only buy whole ones and if necessary, we grind them ourselves, to produce the best possible flavour.
