Essenza Balsamic CondimentoEssenza Balsamic Condimento is produced by a relatively young acetaia (vinegar making facility) Acetaia San Giacomo. According to the San Giacomo owners, they chose the name Essenza because it translates to "the heart, essence, or very nature of an item". By interupting the natural aging process of their traditional balsamics, they have concentrated the fruitiness and fragrance of the cooked grape must, creating a different proportional balance between the sweat and sour (agrodulce) flavor. In so doing, they have also created a velvety structure that is perfect for creamy desserts, meat and mid-season cheeses. They have packaged this wonderful elixir in a perfume style bottle which is boxed for presentation as a perfect hostess gift as well as a personal indulgence. Each bottle of Essenza by San Giacomo contains 40ml or 1.35 fl.oz.
