Gentleman's Relish

Common card · No. 241587

Gentleman's Relish, officially Patum Peperium (a mock-Latin phrase that is supposed to mean "pepper pâté"), was a British brand of anchovy paste made to a secret recipe, created in 1828 by John Osborn. It was a savoury paste based on salted anchovies (minimum 60%) and butter, flavoured with herbs and spices. The product was manufactured by the Osborn family, then by Elsenham Quality Foods, and then by AB World Foods following a takeover. Production was discontinued in 2026 due to diminished sales. While the official recipe remained secret, recipes said to be very similar have been published, and some retailers sell their own versions.
