Yes. It is worth trying if you like sharp preserves, and it can be
used instead of apple together with blackberry.

Yes, they do. And Bonne Maman. True quince is a lot more aromatic
and less acid than Japanese quince.
The big yellow quince smell lovely but I have only used them for cooking
once. As the Tiptree product is so good, lazyitis set in and I just buy
that.
