Frank Cooper's Original Oxford Marmalade. 454g 1lb

My wife and I first tasted Frank Cooper's Original Oxford Marmalade during breakfast at the United Oxford and Cambridge Club. My wife is a marmalade connoisseur. She and I both loved it. Not too sweet, has a slightly tangy flavour, and comes in slices/morsels -- not like the run-of-the-mill marmalades that are so over- processed that they smack of gelatin.

The ultimate marmalade. A full one pound of robust Seville oranges and sugar - the perfect end to a great British breakfast. Better then my Mum made!

I discovered this marmalade at Durrants Hotel, in London, and spent the next five years searching for it in Boston. Every few years, it seems to disappear and I try all of the alternatives. None work. Seville oranges seem to appear at the beginning of the year. And it may be that Cooper's gets sold out. In any case, Cooper's marmalades (there are several versions, all good) have the bitter taste that comes only with Seville oranges, and a fair (but varying) amount of bitter orange peel.
