Apple Cider Vinegar

A delicate, 100% Italian vinegar

The ripe apples become cider, and cider later becomes vinegar. Care is needed, as all the properties of the fruit must be concentrated into a delicate condiment with an harmonious flavour and a rounded aroma, which day after day proves to be a precious ally for our well-being.
In our Apple Cider Vinegar there’s only nature and care: fresh 100% Italian apples and total control over production.

A temptation for well-being

The reason why Eve succumbed to temptation is very clear. The beneficial properties of the apple are impossible to resist. Rich in antioxidants, fibre and vitamins, it is an ally for health: as they say, an apple a day… But Eve didn’t know this, and neither did she know that when apples become vinegar, their benefits multiply!
Apple Cider Vinegar, in fact, is not only the perfect ingredient for deliciously light dishes, but also a natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, an energy booster, an aid in low-calorie diets and even a beauty secret.
