Zuidvaal Exotic Jams

10/06/2026

Loutjie was on leave in the Drakensberg when he walked into The Cheese Deli at Macedonia Cheese Co. He got talking. They tasted. And now you can find Zuidvaal on their shelf.

If you're ever passing through — you know where to go.

A proper winter cheese board doesn't need much. Aged cheddar, creamy brie, crusty bread — and three Zuidvaal jams to bring it together.

Nastergal on the brie. Gooseberry next to the cheddar. Apple Jelly for everything else.

Which pairing would you try first?

Most people have never heard of nastergal. Fewer still know it nearly vanished from the farms that once made it famous. It grew wild and wasn't forced, harvested when ready. At Bloukop, it's still here. And we're still making it into something worth tasting.

Die koue is hier en Bloukop dra sy winterjas. Kaal appelbome, witgerypte grasvelde en gloeiende kaggelvure. Pas-gekookte warm marmelade bottels blink in die winterson. 'n Tyd vir refleksie en onthou. Hoe ontvou die winterseisoen by jou?

Nastergal isn't just rare—it's a conversation starter. What would you pair with it?

Forget toast. Pair Zuidvaal with creamy cheese, crusty bread, and good company. This is how the magic happens.
