Jersey Black Butter (La Faîs'sie d'Cidre)
The Elms, St Mary 1–2 hours Verified 2026-06
Traditional autumn black butter making at The Elms, St Mary.
The story
Despite the name, Jersey Black Butter (lé nièr beurre) contains no butter — it's a spiced apple-and-cider preserve cooked communally overnight in a huge copper bachîn. The National Trust hosts an annual late-October weekend at The Elms where visitors can stir the bachîn, peel apples and taste the finished jet-black spread.
What to expect
Living Jèrriais heritage and one of the island's most distinctive foods.
Good to know
Annual event in late October; jars sold year-round at the Trust shop.
