Elderflower vinegar is a fresh, round and mild food vinegar with the characteristic scent and taste of elderflower.

Use the vinegar to support and supplement summer food, for example in marinades for tender vegetables; for dressings in fresh salads with fruit; or to add acidity to a good dessert.

The desire with our unique food vinegars is to create deep and complex flavors with an interesting balance between sour, sweet and bitter.

The rootstock is our own pure quality liqueurs, which we ferment further using a natural wild vinegar culture (our “vinegar mother”), which we have propagated ourselves.

The fermentation itself is a slow process of 2-3 years – but it is worth the wait!

Use the intensely flavorful vinegars to create balance and depth in your dishes, both in the sweet and savory cuisine. From desserts to simmered dishes.

For many people, it is almost a revelation to experience how crucial the acidic base and its balance can be for taste. Try it for yourself!
