Delicious! Not too thick or thin - just perfect

One of the best Balsamic Vinegars. Had a wonderful taste somewhat sweet taste to it. Delicious.

Really liked the looks of this MANICARDI Balsamic Vinegar set when I first saw it. Ordered this as they were smaller bottles and looked really well made. Nice product presentation. Have to admit got nostalgic as it made me think of my grandparents (big Italian family) and some of the items I would see as a child in their house. So will start with receiving them. Product did arrive quickly, unfortunately our order arrived with one of the bottles broken. You could hear a rattle noise before even opening the box. Once opened and taking the product out, you could see glass shards on the bottom of the box the three bottles of balsamic vinegar were in. Luckily, it was the bottom corner of one of the bottles. This did not break completely just chips off the corner (which is thick glass) so the product was not affected. I noticed that the box dividers did not go down to the bottom of the box, if they did this may not have happened. We put some packing tape on that bottom corner to cover the sharp edges where broken. I am sure this probably happened during shipping. Would not have been able to use this as a gift due to this. See photos showing this. Also picture of all three bottles, middle one is the one that broke. Moving on to the product itself. Again, glass is really thick on each of these bottles. Cork tops are snug enough to keep product contained yet easy enough to pull out without getting product all over. Appreciate they are not screw on tops as it gives it a more high end yet vintage look. Vinegars are really good. Find them slightly different in taste. As soon as you open them you get that nice aroma of this product. I tried them so far on salad, tomatoes and cheese. Loved it on all three. They are a quality vinegar. I would say this would make a great gift for those that love balsamic vinegar or their Italian heritage. You could split it up into three gifts with a bottle to each but I think the box presentation with all three would make the best gift giving. Hardest thing would be making yourself part with the set. Arrived at 4 stars with receipt of product getting 3 and product itself getting 5. I still do highly recommend this.

Never thought I would be happy about spending $150 for a bottle of vinegar. But this item was on my foodie husband’s wish list and I’m so happy with it. This has complex deep flavor, tart and sweet with lots of character. It’s not for cooking but for savoring as a canapé toppper, a drizzle over strawberries or cheese. It’s pricey, but worth it. It comes in pretty packaging, ready to give as a gift. I would recommend this to anyone who loves balsamic vinegar.

Brilliant! The best there is!

Great

Excelente producto. Riquísimo. MAJESTUOSO.

Very nice taste & viscosity. We have a garden with lots of tomatoes, so this a must have! A little goes a long way.
