-
The French SME is a producer of traditionally made, high-quality condiments. They are famous for a range of luxury balsamic vinegars and condiments specially developed for professional chefs, now available to food lovers and amateur cooks. These sophisticated sauces are perfectly suited for everyday use in dishes or mixology.
Since the 18th century, at the end of the wine distillation period, local wine has traditionally been aged in small oak barrels to produce fine vinegar. Building on these ancient traditions, the company designed an entirely new production method inspired by the traditional balsamic makers of Modena, where the grape must be heated before being aged. Once produced, these fine condiments are aged in traditional spirit barrels to achieve a rounded aroma and low acidity. This secret recipe was originally created for a small, intimate group of friends and family. As word spread, local celebrity chefs, including Michelin-starred chefs, became advocates of this new elixir.
The products are available in France, New York, Stockholm, and Hong Kong, and the SME wants to develop their partnerships with importers or distributors in Europe. - Advantages and Innovations
