As you are aware, I purchased Orange, Christmas and Whisky marmalades from you and am more than happy to provide feedback on your products.
Firstly, all three marmalades are under set, in particular the whisky, although overall, the colour is good. The taste of the orange is lacking that tang, which unfortunately you only achieve using Seville oranges. The whisky marmalade has an unpleasant aftertaste, whether this is due to the smokey malt used! The ginger ingredients in the Christmas marmalade totally overpower the orange, it tastes more like a ginger preserve.
If you would like, I can send you photos of the marmalades to show their loose consistency.
I have won many awards for my homemade marmalade, so can talk with some confidence about this subject.
Best wishes

Just right not too vinegary proper pickley
Just right to brighten a quick lunchtime quiche on a drizzly day.
Great taste and flavours.
This pickle is absolutely delicious, so full of flavour and perfect with so many foods
The best chutney
Just love it best marmalade. My Canadian cousin brought me a jar of it when she visited Scotland then down to me and we don’t want any other type now!!

We always enjoy your poachers pickle.
My grand daughters favourite too.
Many thanks for 1st class service too.
Very tasty!
Delicious marmalade the ginger brings out the flavour of the orange - this is going to be my regular ordee
Lovely tangy relish
Best ever chilli jam!
Best marmalade.
Lovely.
Poacher's Pickle has been a favourite of mine for almost forty years. I always keep an ample supply in the house and now it comes in 1kg tubs I'm never in danger of going short.
It really is the 'little black dress' of pickles - it will go with just about anything.
There are many imitations, but this is THE ONE!
A great marmalade. A good set and not firm. A rich medium dark colour and rich flavour from the whisky. Always buy this when it’s available
A little sweet for me, but very tasty marmalade
Absolutely delicious, beautiful texture, and not too sweet
Amazing marmalade.We just love it.
Absolutely delicious
Best chilli jam ever!
I dont eat pickle as i always feel as they are too acidic. Was given this one from from a friend for the other half
When i openef the jar the smell was amazing so i tried some om the end of a spoon
I was hooked fantastic on burgers great with salad snd crusty bread. My family have actually laughed at me for enjoying something i hated before. I am now a poachers pi kle convert. I have told friends about and have placed an order for two more jars
Will be making sure there is always a spare waiting to be opened. Absolutely brilliant product and 5* customer service. You have a new and very happy customer. Thank you so much xx
Best strawberry jam
Galloway for simply the best
Wonderful stuff. Never liked pickle much until I tried Poachers. Have bought the small jars every time I'm in Dumfries, then I found it also comes in kilo jars. Goes in toasties, butties and homemade sausage rolls.
I have had a few whisky marmalades over the years and have to say Galloway Lodges whisky marmalade is the absolute best! Its the only one you can actually taste the whisky. The balance in flavour is just beautiful.
Just as we remembered on our last visit to Galloway Lodge cafe.
A proper marmalade, two slices of toast and butter are never enough to enjoy a breakfast at your cafe in Gatehouse.
It tastes very nice
Amazing tasty jam. Correct amount of sweet and tartness. I hide it from my husband and feel no shame, it's that good. Thoroughly recommend.
Fantastic whisky infused marmalade. It’s delicious 🤤
Absolutely amazing whisky marmalade, wonderful on toast.
Poachers pickle was a random choice and one of the best we’ve tasted It pars so well with most food but a wee spoonful on its own works too I’ve now bought this a few times
