Vinegar

Bignose & Beardy apple cider vinegar (ACV) is based on wild fermented ciders that have been allowed to spontaneously referment before maturing for at least two years. 

All of our ciders are made from local apples that would otherwise go to waste. They are matured for at least a year before drinking. We allow some of our ciders to turn to vinegar naturally, which is triggered by allowing oxygen to reach the cider. If we are honest this does not always happen deliberately, but a batch of spoiled cider is a gift as it will turn into delicious Apple Cider Vinegar .

Our low acidity apple cider vinegar is a natural living product, unpasteurised and unfiltered it contains ‘the mother’, visible as wispy strands. It's packed with flavour.

Some people claim that Apple Cider Vinegar or ACV has many health benefits. Bignose believes it eases his arthritic knees and takes it with honey from his bees. Others believe it has detoxify properties. Is not our place to say whether or not that is correct: decide for yourself.

Gently shake before serving. Dilute 30ml in 200ml of still or sparkling water and sweeten to taste, enjoyed as a tonic by many people. Also suitable for dressings, sauces and cocktails.
