Produit Pic Moutarde Forte is a bold, classic French mustard hailing from Saint-Hilaire-d’Ozilhan in the Rhône Valley, between Orange and Nîmes. Crafted by Les Produits Pic since 1963, this small-batch condiment is made with just three high-quality ingredients: mustard seeds, in-house vinegar, and salt. The "Forte" in its name signals its strong, assertive character—think a sharp, pungent kick that’s more akin to wasabi than the milder mustards of Burgundy’s Dijon region. Its pale yellow hue and silky texture make it visually distinct, while its flavor delivers a robust mustard punch with a subtle, lingering spice that doesn’t overwhelm.
This mustard’s versatility shines through in its uses. It’s a staple for slathering on baguettes with salami and cheese, as praised by Kermit Lynch, who’s imported it for years and calls it his daily lunch go-to. Beyond sandwiches, it adds a fiery depth to sauces, dressings, or even a charcuterie spread—think sausages, cheese platters, or palmiers. Fans rave about its simplicity and potency, often noting it’s a cut above supermarket brands, with a clean, no-nonsense ingredient list that lets the mustard’s natural power stand out.
Imported by Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, it’s a cult favorite among food lovers, frequently selling out due to its limited production. At around $10–14 for a 7.5-ounce jar, it’s a premium pick, reflecting its artisanal roots and quality. If you’re after a mustard that brings heat and authenticity without fuss, Produit Pic’s Moutarde Forte is a little piece of Rhône Valley tradition worth tracking down.
