One of Modena's most distinguished Balsamic vinegar manufacturers produces this delicate condiment which blends white grape must with white wine vinegar. A condiment rather than a vinegar because of its low acidity, the White Balsamic follows the standard methods of Balsamic Vinegar production. The white grape must is cooked at low temperatures in a vacuum to avoid darkening the blend before it is matured in a series of wooden oak casks.
Contains sulfites.
Gluten-free.

José Páez Lobato is a family enterprise that specializes in the making of fine sherry vinegar. The Bodega, or cellar, was founded in 1933 by Francisco Paez Sanchez, and is now managed by his sons.
This 50 year old sherry vinegar is characterized by its amber color, delicate smell, and unique taste... all of which are due to a careful and prolonged aging process. Gran Capirete is aged in American Oak barrels, and the solera that gave birth to it was established in 1946 (so it is actually 72 years old!). It has an unforgettable flavor, with a hint of nuttiness. This vinegar is drier than balsamic vinegar and has an acidity of 8º.
The production and quality of sherry vinegar is monitored and controlled by the Consejo Regulador, and sherry vinegar has its own Denominacion de Origen (D.O.) which is protected by Spanish and EU law. This vinegar carries the D.O. Vinagre de Jerez stamp of approval.
Its complexity and depth of flavor greatly enhances soups, stews, sauces, casseroles, marinades, and dressings.

From our favorite producer of vinegar in France, La Cave de l'Abbe Rous, this exceptional, and rare, Grand Reserve, Barrel Select Banyuls Vinegar will blow your mind.
Starting with their own wine as a base, they test and taste over one thousand 60-gallon barrels of young vinegar, selecting only the finest. These special barrels are set aside and aged for 10 years to create this sublime elixir.
With scents of warm spices and a hint of honey, this vinegar tastes of apricot and vanilla with slight woody overtones. Some great uses include deglazing a lamb or pork roast, or drizzled over a warm scallop or crab salad. We also love it as a drizzle over blanched asparagus topped with a farm-fresh coddled egg. And when you're in the mood for something really special... use Le Vinaigre de Banyuls as a marinade for fish or to deglaze the pan after sautéing duck, mushrooms, or even foie gras!
Some other fantastic uses:
Aged in oak barrels for 10 years which gives it perfect balance and a wonderful flavor.
Bottled at the estate of Abbe Rous.
This is the first time these have been imported to the USA. We were lucky enough to secure 6. GRAB ONE.
500 milliliter (16.8 fluid ounce) glass bottle

This Moscatel Vinegar is made exclusively from Moscatel (Muscat) grapes. This vinegar, made in Catalonia, Spain, is characterized by a gentle, fragrant aroma and flavor. It is especially recommended for fish, seafood dishes, and desserts. We also think its sweet tones are ideal in many marinades, and of course it makes an exciting salad dressing when combined with your favorite extra virgin olive oil.
Ingredients: Moscatel wine vinegar (80%), concentrated grape juice of Moscatel grapes (20%).
It is almost impossible to find a high quality Vermouth Vinegar. The process of making vermouth, fortified wine with a secret blend of botanicals, is a lot of work. So why would you go through all that effort if you are then going to make it into vinegar? Simple: magic in a bottle!
This Vermouth Vinegar is exquisite, and exotic, capturing the essence of vermouth in a tantalizing bittersweet vinegar. Substitute it into any recipe where you would use a white wine vinegar, from vinaigrettes and marinades, to fish and vegetable dishes, and feel your taste buds explode!
Ingredients: wine vinegar (99%), natural aromas (1%).

SAME GREAT MUSTARD, new label design
We have always wanted to carry a French mustard made with Banyuls Vinegar. We thought of importing such a mustard except the 100% import tax made the price seem ridiculous. It is good, but is it $25 good? Maybe, but who wants to pay $20+ for mustard? So we finally decided to make our own in the classic French tradition.
This is a coarse mustard with our Vinegar of Banyuls (La Cave de l'Abbe Rous), a touch of water, mustard seeds, sea salt, and a dash of turmeric to keep the color. We not so humbly admit that we love this more than similar imported mustards, and can bring it to you at 1/2 their cost!
We use it on hotdogs, sausages, hamburgers, and when combined with fresh oregano, freshly minced garlic, Fleur de Sel Sea Salt, freshly ground black pepper, and extra virgin olive oil, we have the perfect marinating rub for lamb.
We think this is fantastic and something you'll be proud to have in your kitchens!

WuWanWo means "forget me not", an apt name for a product with unique origins and an unforgettable flavor. WuWanWo is a collaborative effort between Piranske Soline and Taiwanese soy sauce makers. They weave their centuries-old traditions together to create a soy sauce with a sweet, oceanic aroma, and meaty taste.
This precious sauce is produced using only indigenous black soybeans, Piranske Soline sea salt from the Piran Salt Pans in Slovenia (a very famous salt source), brown sugar, and natural seasonings. This soy sauce is produced with absolutely no preservatives and it uses all non-GMO ingredients. Its balanced yet complex flavor is achieved through natural fermentation in traditional terra cotta pots for 180 days. The sauce is simply extracted from the pots and bottled.
It is an excellent umami foundation for marinades and salad dressings, and it elevates sashimi, sushi, spring rolls, tempura, dumplings and other light dishes to new heights your taste buds have never imagined.
This "Harmonious" soy sauce is characterized by a balanced, meaty flavor. Try it with sashimi, sushi, spring rolls, tempura, or dumplings, in marinades and salad dressings, and other light dishes.
This was featured in "The Rosengarten Report" where he said:
"...it is extraordinary! Also made with non-GMO black soybeans, no wheat, and a 180-day fermentation, it is simply one of the most complex soy sauces I’ve ever tasted. The flavors are umami from not just Slovenia, but maybe even Mars (including an incredible blast of mushroom-like intensity). It’s very, very salty (as if to emphasize the Slovenian connection), but it finishes in the mouth with a lovely roundness. I love it for crudo: I buy me some very fresh fish, slice it sashimi-style, and gloss it lightly with Hei-Jin and extra virgin olive oil. Of course, feel free to use it in high-level Chinese and Japanese cooking as well.”

Villa Manodori Aceto Balsamico (authentic balsamic vinegar) “Artigianale” is a carefully crafted labor of love from Chef Massimo Bottura, owner of three-star Michelin restaurant Osteria Francescana in Modena, Italy. Made in the tradizionale style and produced in limited quantities, the condiment is a combination of traditional balsamic and aged red wine vinegars. Maturing for a decade or more in barrels of oak, chestnut and juniper, the vinegar develops a shiny ebony color, pleasant woody aroma, raisin-sweet, tart taste and maple syrup texture. A true original, this versatile condiment is enjoyed as an alternative to precious traditional balsamic.
