Giuseppe Giusti - Balsamico di Modena DOP

More than four centuries have passed since our family ancestors initiated the first series of barrels of balsamic vinegar in the attics of our home in Via Farini. Today, Giusti balsamic vinegars enrich the dishes of the best chefs and decorate the shelves of the most exclusive shops in Italy and in the world. And it is thanks to the trust and loyalty of all of you who have followed us in this long history that still today we dedicate ourselves with passion and enthusiasm to the production and dissemination of this wonderful product, which has contributed to the great history of Modena

It is in the wood of the ancient ageing barrels that the secret of the Balsamic Vinegar is hidden. Owning an Acetaia was and is therefore a real family heritage. Between the 1700s and the early 1900s the “Gran Deposito Aceto Balsamico di Giuseppe Giusti” expanded by starting new batteries of barrels and acquiring them from other Modenese families. These are the same barrels in which Giusti vinegar still ages today, lovingly cared for from generation to generation. The older the barrel, the better the product will be obtained, since it will always better release the essences of the wood and the balsamic aromas that have stayed there over the years.

The quality of Giusti Balsamic Vinegar conquered not only the Italian and European audience, but also the King of Italy Vittorio Emanuele III, who granted in 1929 the high title of “Supplier of the Royal House of Savoy”, conceding to Giusti the privilege of displaying the Royal Seal of Approval. It is still incorporated on all Giusti Balsamic Vinegars bottle as a symbol of the iconographic heritage of the brand.

The most iconic and representative collection from the Acetaia Giusti. Still today Giusti uses the first historical label, designed in the early 1900’s according to the liberty style, and visually represents a collection of the accolades obtained by Giusti in that era. The Collection includes five Balsamic Vinegars of Modena - available in three different bottles - of different recipes and ageing developed throughout the generations. Today, they are classified with a progressive number of medals, chosen from the medals collected at the International Fairs of the 19th century.
