Irish Black Butter

Irish Black Butter is an award-winning preserve made from apples, treacle, cider, brandy, and spices. Based on a recipe dating to medieval times, this spiced apple butter now reflects modern Irish tastes and the finest of regional ingredients, including PGI status Armagh Bramley apples. Rich and complex in aroma, caramelized apples mingle with warming spices for a deeply satisfying flavor that is comforting yet quite unique.

Thick, smooth, and spreadable, the butter can be enjoyed in a variety of sweet and savory ways. Spread on toast, bagels, or swirl through oatmeal for breakfast. It’s an excellent accompaniment to cheeses, can be used as a marinade or glaze for meat, or drizzled over apple pie and ice cream. It can even be used in baking, or mixed into a hot cocktail.
