Vinegars
Vinegar has had an important role in the Greek culture since the antiquity: as an ingredient in various traditional recipes, in domestic food processing and preservation, even as a remedy for various conditions. Nowadays is a non-miss, from everyday home cooking to fine dining.
Our Vinegars Assortment
Vinegar
Made directly from grapes or, according to customer demand, from red or white Greek wine, our vinegar is only produced by natural fermentation-acidification without any chemical additives. Filtering by our state-of-the-art crossflow filters results in a bright clear product which doesn't require pasteurisation, keeping its full aroma and organoleptic complexity.
Balsamic Vinegar
Nowadays, balsamic vinegar is widely used in all cuisines, particularly so in the Mediterranean one. Our balsamic vinegars are only sweetened with grape must, without any added sugar or other sweeteners. We avoid the use of artificial additives and flavourings. Though certainly not as famous, our Greek balsamic vinegars are nevertheless top-quality, differentiating competitors of the having grown-to-become "common" Italian ones.
Available flavours
Classic / Honey / Bianco / Mango / Pomegranate / Strawberry / Fig
Balsamic Glaze
Our balsamic glazes (creams) are made of delicious grape must and balsamic vinegar. Thanks to their well-balanced sweet-sour taste they are perfect to add on salads, vegetables, meat, fish or fruit.
