Essential Waitrose French Mustard 180g

Yes - this French Mustard was excellent. Tastes really good.

I’d been on the hunt for proper French mustard for ages—apparently there’s a bit of a shortage going on, which might explain why this little jar from Waitrose came with a surprisingly hefty price tag. Still, curiosity (and mustard cravings) got the better of me, so I took the plunge. And you know what? I’m glad I did. The flavour’s something else—smooth, sharp, and undeniably French. It’s not your usual yellow stuff; this one’s got finesse. I use it sparingly, partly because I want it to last, and partly because a small dab really goes a long way. It’s got just the right kind of kick for dressings, roast beef sandwiches, and anything else in need of a gourmet touch. Sure, it was expensive, but sometimes it’s the little luxuries that make everyday meals feel special. It’s earned a spot on my fridge shelf—and in my food-loving heart.

Yes it’s fine, a little expensive but I don’t see it in the shops and I do enjoy steak with a small smidgen of brown mustard.

I was a bit shocked that I couldn’t find French (tarragon) mustard anywhere on supermarket shelves, not realising that there’s a worldwide shortage because climate change is affecting mustard plant growing, particularly in Canada where it appears most of our mustard is grown. So somebody enterprising has stocked up on the Waitrose variety and will be making a tidy profit so long as the shortage lasts. That’s capitalism. I am just grateful to be able to get hold of some for my hubby to smear on his once a week rib-eye or sirloin steak. So the jar will last a long time fortunately.

Seems ridiculously hard to find French mustard on supermarket shelves these days! Good value for money, this is great mustard with a sound balance of taste and heat. Be aware seller uses Evri for delivery so, unsurprisingly, it was delayed despite being a Prime item.

Lovely tasting mustard perfect for accompaniment to steak or on a beef sandwich! Smooth and easy to spoon out of jar. Mustard is expensive so this is great value for money.

After looking for months in various stores, I finally found exactly what I wanted here. I am so happy!

Its not the taste I remember. Seller a-OK and sent item very quickly
