Everything about the Malhighi Prelibato 'White Balsamic' is striking and unexpected. First off, its bottle is pure modern art. The vinegar is surprisingly sweet, almost candy-like in its character. It is made from white wine vinegar and is aged in ash barrels. More sweet than sour, it still has a pleasant 'zap' that makes it an ideal compliment to seafood, raw vegetables and luscious ripe fruits and berries. This is a truly unique and special product that belongs in any 'foodie' pantry!
