## Description

1 Bottle 100 ml - 3,38 fl.oz - of Traditional Balsamic Vinegar from Modena PDO (aceto balsamico tradizionale) aged at least 12 years - Acetaia Malpighi + tic Originally conceived as a cordial to sip from liqueur glasses after meals, with time it has found uses in the menus of the grat international chefs from appetizers to desserts. It is suitable for strong, well-flavoured and spicy cheeses, for fruit salads with fruits of the forest, strawberries or cherries, for custard cream and ice-cream, for panettone or strudel. A typical quantity per portion is normally a teaspoonful. It's obtained from the must of characteristic Modena grapes. The must, slowly cooked on an open fire in open vessels, is concetraded so as to reduced to one third of its initial volume. Thereupon, in house attics, while resting in its dwelling of casks, it faces the eat of summers and the rigors of winters. The casks come in series of decreasing sizes and of varius woods: oak, mulberry, chestnut, cherry, and, at times, juniper. Here the Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena spends years acidifying, ripeniing and aging to achieve a balance that only the alchemy of time and the expert human hand can produce. ParmaShop ships Balsamic Vinegar to Europe, United States of America, Japan via air mail and courier.

Review: Delicious Genuine Traditional Balsamic of Modena - To me this Malpighi 12 yr is a real treasure and a bargain to boot. It may not compare to older balsamics but it is not meant to. It is meant to have its own unique profile. I currently have four traditional balsamics: one Regio Emilio (20+ yrs), one Modena 25+ years, and two different Modena 12 years (including one of this particular (Malpighi). All are superb and all display different characteristics. Even though this is the least expensive one it has its own uniqueness. I like my Traditionals a bit on the sweet side for certain uses like light cheeses, vanilla ice cream etc, and a bit on the "darker", more acidicly sweet side for meats and stronger cheeses etc. To achieve Traditional status the vinegar inside that unique bottle will always be worthwhile. This is no exception!
Review: Delicious - Delicious. My first try of the "real deal" balsamic, and it does not disappoint. It's very expensive for vinegar, and definitely a splurge/special occasion item. Would make a really nice gift.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: One review says this is actually 2 year old.  Can someone confirm if 12 year?**
A: We just visited a balsamic vinegar factory (aceto balsamico tradizionale) in Modena just yesterday and 12 years in the minimum age allowed to carry this name and DOP marking. The bottle size and shape are the only one prescribed for this product. We also saw the "showroom" for this particular producer in Modena Centro.

It looks legit.

Other answers describe that the "2 years" is a typo or the full description was truncated - cut-off by the label printer format that Amazon dictates to the seller. I can see this as true because I used to package products for FBA ("fulfilled by Amazon") and partial or nonsensical human-readable text on the FBA label is the rule rather than the exception.

It COULD be a pretty elaborate knock-off, but I doubt it. The price is a little better than other offerings on Amazon and indeed, here in Italy where we are vacationing right now.

I wouldn't hesitate to buy this product through Amazon if it weren't for my "brand loyalty" to the producer who treated up to a tasting and tour of their facility.

If one does some research, they'll find this price is quite good, but not "cheap" enough to trigger any alarms. ~$80USD is what one can expect to pay for this product from other legitimate sources. We paid about $60€ for a bottle of this just yesterday.

The only other thing that would keep me from buying THIS product is that the Amazon label is slapped on the product's box! The stuff is pretty special and the packaging is part of the presentation if you're giving it as a gift. So the Amazon label - especially with misleading information - detracts from the value. The seller would be wise to bag or shrink wrap this box, THEN apply the label. Again, based on my experience packaging FBA merchandise - this is completely withing the seller's power.

**Q: Please tell me the expiration date.**
A: Many years: 2028 the expiration date

**Q: Is this organically grown and processed?**
A: That is a thought provoking question. The grapes were grown in Italy more than 12 years ago. The processing involves transferring the must / wine / vinigar from cask to cask, each made of different woods. The casks are in constant use, only a small amount being transferred to the next cask and the volume made up from the previous cask. Finally, only a very small amount is used with your strawberries and ice cream or Parmesan cheese.

**Q: Does this contain sulfites?**
A: Authentic balsamic has no ingredients other than grapes. And nothing is added during the years it is aged. But whether it contains sulfates like wine, I do not know.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Flavor
*by H***E on January 12, 2023*

After watching a few food/travel shows I'd learned about balsamic vinegar and the differences in quality and taste. Although authentic is more expensive, I bought what I could afford and it was worth it. It is such a superior flavor to the stuff we buy in the supermarket, I have no regrets. This kit comes with some extras that were appreciated.
