US International Vinegar Competition

We are excited to bring our competition philosophy of trade buyers only judging to the Vinegar Industry. It is our belief that trade buyers truly know what consumers want and what they will buy at what price. Expert buyers will be blind tasting the vetted samples and will know the category, the place of orgin and the retail price.
