Colman's English Mustard

Colman's of Norwich is one of the oldest existing food brands in the United Kingdom, renowned for its heritage and its iconic bold yellow packaging. Founded in 1814 by Jeremiah Colman in Norwich, England, the brand has become synonymous with traditional English mustard. The distinctive 'Original English' flavor is achieved through a specific blend of brown and white mustard seeds, known for its sharp and fiery heat.

While the brand moved its primary manufacturing operations from its historic Carrow site in Norwich in recent years, production remains within the United Kingdom to maintain its traditional quality standards. The brand continues to prioritize sourcing mustard seeds from local British farmers to preserve its authentic flavor profile and historical connection to the East Anglia region.

Ownership of Colman's has transitioned through the years from the original Colman family to Reckitt & Colman (now Reckitt) in 1995, and then to the British multinational consumer goods company Unilever. Today, Unilever manages the brand globally, ensuring that this British household staple reaches international markets while maintaining its heritage as an essential part of British culinary culture.
