Petit Jean Meats of Morrilton, Arkansas, family-owned and operated for over 80 years, is known for producing some of the finest meats available today. Petit Jean Ham is also marketed under the Neiman Marcus label, and, since 1940, is the only ham served at The Pancake Shop, the legendary breakfast eatery in Hot Springs, Arkansas.
The company's beginnings date back to 1922 when Felix Schlosser, a butcher and German immigrant, relocated to Arkansas in search of a better life. He opened a small retail meat market in the town of Morrilton. Schlosser's nephews Ed and Lonnie were brought into the business at the ages of 12 and 10, respectively, and first delivered meat to homes in Morrilton by bicycle.
Mr. Filbert's French Rosemary Almonds
As their packaging indicates, Mr. Filbert's makes "really interesting snacks," with "flavours from around the world." Tasty hot air roasted almonds are tumbled with fresh French rosemary and a touch of sea salt, providing a crunchy, savory snack. These are the perfect nuts to pair with antipasti and cheese, or as stand-alone snacks for any tummy that grumbles.
L'Estornell Caperberries
L'Estornell caperberries are wild fruits that grow in the sun-drenched, mountainous areas of the VEA family estate in Spain. Hand-selected, the caperberries are first put in rock salt for a minimum of three months before preserving. The salt is then removed by rinsing the capers several times in fresh water and the fruits are bottled in white vinegar, using no additives or preservatives. Don’t forget to save a few of these piquant treats to serve in gin or vodka martinis!
Tishbi Fig Cabernet
Oshra Tishbi has created an exceptional selection of wine and fruit preserves made with extraordinary wines from her family's estate in the town of Shefeya, in Israel. This perfect combination of figs and cabernet sauvignon complements cheese with a lovely balance of fruit and wine flavors that linger on the tongue. Perfect with Aged Cheddar, Romano Milk Gouda, Montgomery and Pecorino Romano. Use your board leftovers with a warm croissant, French toast, or vanilla ice cream.
Tishbi wine & fruit preserves have garnered international recognition for their innovative and delicious tastes. Each of Tishbi's preserves are skillfully cooked in small batches to ensure the finest quality product. The unique process delivers a completely natural, fruity and flavorful, less sugared, reduced calorie preserve made from only the finest fruit and Tishbi family Estate Wines..

Jan's Farmhouse Crisps
Vermont's Jan Gorham was on the hunt for a healthy snack for her three boys. Not satisfied with what she found on the market, she created these anything-but-average crisps. Jan's Farmhouse Crisps are super thin and loaded with dried cranberries, flaxseed, pistachios, sesame seeds, and pumpkin seeds. They offer the perfect foundation for soft cheeses, a great crunch atop a green salad, or straight from the bag.
Offering a punch of color and bold spice, Edmond Fallot Walnut Dijon also delivers distinctly nutty flavors from fine walnuts grown in Perigord, France.
Since 1840, the Fallot family has maintained a worldwide reputation for exceptional quality mustard. The Fallot Mustard Mill relies on the expertise of artisan mustard maker, Mark Désarménien, who continues the uncompromising production of Dijon mustard by stone grinding the seeds, artfully blending them with the highest quality ingredients and following Fallot family recipes. Fallot is one of the few companies in the world still using traditional stone milling methods, which retain robust gustatory qualities and give Fallot mustards their incomparable flavor.
Use remaining Dijon to flavor poultry, meats, fish, cheeses, vinaigrettes, and sandwiches.
Roccina Cheese from Kent Walker
Handmade and cave aged, Kent Walker Artisan Cheese is a Little Rock local favorite. Italian for "Little Rock," Roccina (Row-cheen-a) is Kent Walker’s take on Asiago, made from local raw cow milk with curds at a high temperature. During the three month aging process, the rinds are treated with salt, giving Roccina a tasty and attractive edge. It's hard to imagine what wouldn't pair well with the Tishbi Fig Cabernet Preserves and Jan's Farmhouse Crisps, but this tasty cheese was just right.
