Updated: Updated as the consultation period for this product has now ended.
We have applied to the EU to get Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status for this product.
The EU protected food name scheme covers regional and traditional foods whose authenticity and origin can be guaranteed.
The EU will only give a product the PGI mark if they decide it has a reputation, characteristics or qualities that are a result of the area it’s associated with.
