Burren Balsamics was founded in 2014 with the aim of producing top quality vinegars fusing local flavours with superior quality Balsamic Vinegar of Modena to create a delicious range of affordable condiments. Over a cup of coffee, we decided to produce a range of fruit-infused black Balsamics.

Our products were so well received when we started in 2014 that we also worked on infusing white balsamic vinegars – or white condiment. Our experiment became real and we now have five more flavour combinations of white Italian condiment to add to our range of ten fruit-infused black balsamic vinegars.

Whilst we have added to the flavours, fruit infusions and herb and spice combinations, we never compromise on flavour – the ingredients are 100% natural.

Our vinegar suppliers are in Italy. Toschi are a third-generation family firm who have the highest BRC (AA) level which is what we use for our dark Balsamics. All our vinegar is aged naturally in wooden barrels that allow the vinegar to breathe and therefore to leak a little. There are many different types of barrels made from chestnut, cherry, oak, mulberry, ash and juniper, which all adds to the delicious end flavour of the vinegar.

Another interesting fact is that the black colouring of the vinegar is made from a blend of grape juice, which includes Lambrusco and Trebbiano.

These products are essential for any store cupboard. Our kinds of vinegar work in savoury or sweet dishes: drizzled over cheese, added to marinades and casseroles, or as the twist to ice-creams - always adding depth and flavour. They even work in cocktails!
