Balsamic Vinegars

• Balsamic Vinegar Pearls
  1. Do not use sparingly!
     Review Date: 02/28/2016; By: Donna Schiavone ( ROSELAND, NJ )
     These are good but you really have to use a bunch to get the flavor. Which is fine, they look nice on the plate, but the jar is so small!
• Banda Rossa Balsamic Vinegar by Giuseppe Giusti Average 4.0 out of 4 Reviews
  1. Extraordinary Balsamic
     Review Date: 08/19/2011; Anonymous
     Banda Rossa offers the most impressive balance of quality and price in a balsamic vinegar. From the time I first discovered it in Italy, it has had a permanent place among my condiments.
  2. Banda Rossa Balsamic Vinegar by Giuseppe Giusti
     Review Date: 04/27/2011; By: Jon Slocum ( Knoxville, TN )
     This is as close as you can get to Traditional Balsamic Vinegar without spending the big bucks. A real treat and a good value.
  3. TOO THIN
     Review Date: 05/26/2010; By: Michael O'Connor ( Weston, CT )
     Very thin w/little structure -a disapointment at this price range -good flavor but seems more like a $30 product
  4. no less than the red stripe
     Review Date: 01/04/2009; By: Rachel Smith ( Brooklyn, NY )
     Sour perfectly blended with complex fruit sweetness and a remarkable lack of acidity surrounding it. Not merely tart/sweet, an undertone of caramel and pepper sees to that.
• Classico Giusti (2 Gold Medal) Balsamic Vinegar IGP by Giuseppe Giusti Average 4.8 out of 6 Reviews
  1. Vinegar
     Review Date: 09/17/2015; By: paulina curran ( Melrose, MA )
     Delicious
  2. My son practically drinks this stuff...
     Review Date: 06/06/2015; By: Kathleen Wetherby ( Dover, MA )
     We buy both the gold and red label balsamic from Avanti Savoia. We especially appreciate that they pack them VERY well, as that was an issue for us with another vendor. This balsamic has a pure flavor and is thinner and more tart than the red label (also cheaper), which is why my son prefers it. I have yet to sample a balsamic I like anywhere close to as much as these Giuseppe Giusti balsamics!
  3. Amazing quality for reasonable price
     Review Date: 12/01/2010; By: Katharine Brosnan ( Knoxville, TN )
     We all know that Modena produces the world's best balsamic vinegar, and this Gold Medal is hands-down the best flavor on the market for a reasonable price. The concentrated flavor is what I always used to try to achieve by reducing cheaper vinegars, but this is soooo much better! This should be in every cook's pantry for everyday use!
  4. my favorite vinegar
     Review Date: 01/19/2010; By: Amy Reed ( Knoxville, TN )
     After my last bottle of this vinegar ran out, I tried to do the "smart" thing and buy a replacement at my local grocery store. I read all the labels and bought the one that soundest the best, at a fraction of the cost of this one. When I began using the replacement, my children complained about the dishes I used it in. "This tastes different! What's wrong?" I switched back. The comments are back to, "Mom, this is delicious!" I love this vinegar so much that I put it straight on a poached egg.
  5. Great Taste
     Review Date: 08/26/2009; By: Paula Bilyeu ( Carbondale, IL )
     Excellent on salads.

  2. Almost perfect
     Review Date: 05/13/2010; By: Stephen Franco ( Harrison, AR )
     Good control over pour, no drips. Slightly oval shape where the small cork fits prevents a good seal is my only complaint.

• Il Borgo Del Balsamico - Balsamic Vinegar of Modena - Yellow Label 750ml IGP

     Review Date: 09/15/2009; By: Michael Chazen ( Jasper, GA )
     When you reach for anything that you need Balsamico for, use this! The difference between this and "other products" called balsamico is totally apparent from the moment you open the bottle.

     We love this. This olive oil with Vito's Gold is the only thing we use for dipping bread. This set is excellent and the taste is so high quality it makes it hard to go out to dinner because nothing satisfies after this.

     This is a staple in our kitchen… I won't eat a salad without it!!
  2. Just the best balsamic i have ever tasted...
     Review Date: 06/06/2015; By: Kathleen Wetherby ( Dover, MA )
     I'm a bit of a nut about balsamic vinegars. I've tried innumerable brands over the years and I've just decided that life is too short for cheap balsamic! Of the expensive ones, this is by far my favorite. It is thick, sweet and tart in a complex and pure way. I buy the gold label to use in cooking or when a recipe calls for a lot or a reduction sauce, but this is the one I use for salads or to finish a dish, when the flavor of the balsamic will be prominent. It's not cheap, but once you taste it, you will think it's a good value. We also appreciate that Avanti Savioa packages their balsamics securely! That was an issue for us with another vendor.
  3. Exquisite balsamic...
     Review Date: 06/02/2015; By: Edgardo Lob ( Greenville, PA )
     Since first trying this product we are hooked. Just the thickness of it promises gustatory pleasures. Once using the product we can not go back to the watery diluted vinegars served in restaurants or from the shelf. We buy this by the case and have hooked several of our friends who swear by this product. The best decision we have made regarding vinegars. Bravo..You will adore it...
  4. Giusti Balsamic Gusto
     Review Date: 03/30/2015; Anonymous
     I've personally never tried an Italian Balsamic before. Now I don't know how I will ever go back to the "imitation" balsamic vinegar that is mostly sold in large chain grocery stores. Giusti Balsamic vinegar is deliciously thick and has a superb sweetness to go along with fruity nose.
  5. Rich and delicious!

     This is one of my favorites. I feel so rich having this in my kitchen. My husband loves Italian cooking and this is one of his favorites too. He has a high expectation with Italian dining and this is a thumbs up for him.
  7. Balsamic Vinegar by Riccardo Giusti
     Review Date: 07/31/2010; By: Anna Lyons ( York, PA )
     Excellent taste.. deep rich flavor that is just sweet enough. This balsamic over fresh sliced tomatoes and mozzarella.... sigh.... wonderful!!
  8. Now for the good stuff.
     Review Date: 05/13/2010; By: Stephen Franco ( Harrison, AR )
     A bottle of Riccardo/IL Denso is my first venture beyond $10/bottle grocery store balsamic. The Riccardo is certainly in a different league than what I've used before. As you can see, I don't have much basis for a comparative review, but I will say that I and everyone who has tasted the Riccardo are amazed. I'm ruined now, no more grocery store faux-balsamic for me, It's time for the good stuff!

      Review Date: 10/30/2009; By: Brian Kuhn ( Hemingford, NE )
      We first came upon this fine balsamic on a trip to Italy, purchasing two bottles at Italian Loves, a little wine and balsamic tasting shop we found in Firenze. The price was double what you find here. I was going to buy it again from Italian Loves' web site, cringing at the cost of shipping, when I decided to go to Giuseppe Giusti's web site and contact them directly to see if they had outlets here in the U.S. The marketing director pointed me here, to Avanti Savoia. Bottom line -- The Riccardo/IL Denso is superb for cooking, as well as by itself on Parmigiano-Reggiano. Get it. Heck, at this price, get two!

      Review Date: 10/16/2009; By: Kathryn Johnson ( Charlotte, NC )

     There are times when you want to use something other then an off the shelf "white wine V". This vinegar has a most subtle flavor and the real flavors actually come singing through.

• White Balsamic Pearls
  1. White Balsamic Pearls - wow
     Review Date: 03/30/2015; Anonymous
     Delicious. These pearls are a superb accompaniment in salads and other dishes. Their flavor was perfect with a Caprese salad that my wife recently made. The only con is that the white pearls don't display well on white dishes. In this case, black pearls would be better in my opinion, but that has nothing to do with their excellent flavor and does not warrant a reduced rating. I intend to buy both colors in the future.

     Enjoyed the strong, bold, spicy taste of this coffee and it's all it claims in the description; except I didn't pick up much chocolate taste but earthiness, yes. The only reason for 4 stars was because I only got 4 cups out of what was stated to be a 10 cup quantity. This may be my personal taste for strong coffee. I got ground and would buy whole bean in the future to suit my tastes.
  4. Earthy medium body coffee

     Nice smooth earthy coffee but not bold or full bodied as we expected.

  8. Disappointed!
     Review Date: 02/18/2015; By: Betsy Martin ( Knoxville, TN )
     I love a rich, bold coffee, so was excited to try Dark Horse. I'm afraid I was disappointed and found the taste to be very ordinary and without a noticeable taste or flavor.

      I love the aroma of this unbrewed coffee. Once brewed, the taste is mild and somewhat fruity. Lovely Ethiopian coffee.
  11. Full of flavor
      Review Date: 02/08/2015; Anonymous
      Loved this coffee! It has a sweet, very pleasing morning (& afternoon)smell upon opening; though not blueberryish to me. What I did taste was a strong but smooth chocolately, richly balanced taste but not like a mocha coffee just the right amount of chocolate not covering the coffee flavor at all. Would definitely buy again and in whole bean cause I first got ground and the stated 10 cups made only 4 for my tastebuds. Still a 5 star coffee. I had it black which is not the way I drink my coffee and it was excellent; with my caramel creamer it was over the top delicious and I didn't want to share it with my hubby :)but I did!

     Delicious. These pearls are a superb accompaniment in salads and other dishes. Their flavor was perfect with a Caprese salad that my wife recently made. The only con is that the white pearls don't display well on white dishes. In this case, black pearls would be better in my opinion, but that has nothing to do with their excellent flavor and does not warrant a reduced rating. I intend to buy both colors in the future.

  1. As a gift, was a total hit!
     Review Date: 12/19/2009; By: Sarah Eick ( Wind Gap, PA )
     The package is heavy 31-lbs and if you are sending it as a gift it is packaged for safe shipping not for display. So you may want to have it shipped to you and lay it out as you would want it to be presented, if that is important to you. The box is beautiful, and the variety and amount of products makes it difficult to set up for display... which is a good problem. I purchased this as a gift to give to my aunt and uncle for the Holidays. It was a less expensive trip back to Italy for them which they absolutely loved... The comment was that I "out did myself," so thank you Avanti Savoia for making me look good! You are now a permanent bookmark! I did top off the gift with some homemade cookies and two containers of their favorite Italian espresso, Illy's, which I had to purchase elsewhere, since they don't carry it here. Perhaps in Italy illy's is like what Folgers is to Americans. Even if that is the case... it still beats any espresso I've had thus far in the states. The package left a great lasting impression, and I look forward to hearing the reviews on its contents!

  2. My son practically drinks this stuff...
     Review Date: 06/06/2015; By: Kathleen Wetherby ( Dover, MA )
     We buy both the gold and red label balsamic from Avanti Savoia. We especially appreciate that they pack them VERY well, as that was an issue for us with another vendor. This balsamic has a pure flavor and is thinner and more tart than the red label (also cheaper), which is why my son prefers it. I have yet to sample a balsamic I like anywhere close to as much as these Giuseppe Giusti balsamics!
  3. Amazing quality for reasonable price
     Review Date: 12/01/2010; By: Katharine Brosnan ( Knoxville, TN )
     We all know that Modena produces the world's best balsamic vinegar, and this Gold Medal is hands-down the best flavor on the market for a reasonable price. The concentrated flavor is what I always used to try to achieve by reducing cheaper vinegars, but this is soooo much better! This should be in every cook's pantry for everyday use!
  4. my favorite vinegar
     Review Date: 01/19/2010; By: Amy Reed ( Knoxville, TN )
     After my last bottle of this vinegar ran out, I tried to do the "smart" thing and buy a replacement at my local grocery store. I read all the labels and bought the one that soundest the best, at a fraction of the cost of this one. When I began using the replacement, my children complained about the dishes I used it in. "This tastes different! What's wrong?" I switched back. The comments are back to, "Mom, this is delicious!" I love this vinegar so much that I put it straight on a poached egg.

  1. Himalayan Sea Salt Tile 8x8x2
     Review Date: 05/16/2013; By: HARRIET GLASMAN ( KNOXVILLE, TN )
     It took me several attempts to learn how to cook the food without having too much salt absorbed from the tile. What I have learned is that the most important element of cooking on it is to heat to a very high temp. I would say 500 F. You must have it so hot that the food cooks in minutes. Otherwise the food will be too salty. I like it and plan to continue using it. It's fairly easy to clean and store. I wrap it in a towel to store it. You must use very thinly sliced food or it will have to cook longer, therefore absorbing more salt.

We had it for Sunday dinner with real Italian spaghetti, mild Italian sausages and some lovely Parmigiano-Reggiano. The "gravy" is so smooth, with wonderful slow cooked flavor. I understand why it's also called Sunday gravy or Sunday sauce! I'd buy it again!

• Israeli Couscous, Whole Wheat Average 4.3 out of 3 Reviews
  1. Not what I expected...
     Review Date: 06/06/2015; By: Kathleen Wetherby ( Dover, MA )
     I don't see it referenced in the ingredients summary, but the jar that arrived had an essence of rosemary added. I add fresh rosemary to a lot of things, so I didn't see the problem at first, but the sweet Moroccan dishes that I tried to use these for didn't mesh well with that rosemary flavor...

     Acacia honey is one of my favorites. It is a almost clear in color and has a delicate taste. It is enhanced by butter and other salty spreads or just straight out of the jar. I'm glad I tried it.

     Review Date: 07/06/2011; By: Amy Griffiths ( Dearborn, MI )
     This honey is subtly different from clover honey in its sweetness, but it is light, dissolves quickly and won't crystallize over time like other honeys. Try it, you might get hooked!

     Review Date: 03/08/2009; By: Kellie Laporte ( Wolcott, CT )
     This is unlike any honey I've ever tasted. It's beyond ordianary honey. I never knew honey could be so good. I make everyone try it. This is a must buy. The only thing I don't like is the bottle because it is so tall, and the cover is a cork that you have to pull out to open. It gets tough since there is honey on it. I would prefer a smaller bottle that has a normal top that is attached and just snaps shut.

I've had to hide this one from myself on occasion from a deep desire it gives me to go mountain climbing. I live at the beach in Southern California. Ha.

  2. My son practically drinks this stuff...
     Review Date: 06/06/2015; By: Kathleen Wetherby ( Dover, MA )
     We buy both the gold and red label balsamic from Avanti Savoia. We especially appreciate that they pack them VERY well, as that was an issue for us with another vendor. This balsamic has a pure flavor and is thinner and more tart than the red label (also cheaper), which is why my son prefers it. I have yet to sample a balsamic I like anywhere close to as much as these Giuseppe Giusti balsamics!
  3. Amazing quality for reasonable price
     Review Date: 12/01/2010; By: Katharine Brosnan ( Knoxville, TN )
     We all know that Modena produces the world's best balsamic vinegar, and this Gold Medal is hands-down the best flavor on the market for a reasonable price. The concentrated flavor is what I always used to try to achieve by reducing cheaper vinegars, but this is soooo much better! This should be in every cook's pantry for everyday use!
  4. my favorite vinegar
     Review Date: 01/19/2010; By: Amy Reed ( Knoxville, TN )
     After my last bottle of this vinegar ran out, I tried to do the "smart" thing and buy a replacement at my local grocery store. I read all the labels and bought the one that soundest the best, at a fraction of the cost of this one. When I began using the replacement, my children complained about the dishes I used it in. "This tastes different! What's wrong?" I switched back. The comments are back to, "Mom, this is delicious!" I love this vinegar so much that I put it straight on a poached egg.

  1. Himalayan Sea Salt Tile 8x8x2
     Review Date: 05/16/2013; By: HARRIET GLASMAN ( KNOXVILLE, TN )
     It took me several attempts to learn how to cook the food without having too much salt absorbed from the tile. What I have learned is that the most important element of cooking on it is to heat to a very high temp. I would say 500 F. You must have it so hot that the food cooks in minutes. Otherwise the food will be too salty. I like it and plan to continue using it. It's fairly easy to clean and store. I wrap it in a towel to store it. You must use very thinly sliced food or it will have to cook longer, therefore absorbing more salt.

I like applebutter as well, eating it on toast at breakfast, so I will experiment with it too. The 1st taste has a vinegary taste but haven't looked at contents yet.

     Ms. Bu*****th put me off maple long ago. My mother always said, "back when I was a little girl syrup was different, it tasted better." Although I wasn't fond of cleaning the wax off the stpper, I was impressed with the contents. This maple syrup has a light pleasant maple taste and sweetness that doesn't bombard the mouth. I could enjoy a flavorful breakfast without the fearing the synthetic backlash and the impending typical maple syrup sugar rush.

     Honestly I expected the bottle to be bigger based on cost. Regardless of price you won't find another oil like this. After I ordered the first bottle and tried it, I went back online and ran them out of stock for very good reason - this oil is amazing. I try to use it sparingly but it always calls out "you know I am the best just use me"....when they say EVERYONE should have this in their kitchen that is not a sales pitch! It is the satisfied belly truth.

• Italian Fettuccine Pasta
  1. Best for the "True Fettuccine Alfredo"
     Review Date: 08/23/2012; Anonymous
     Recipe by Lynne Rosetto-Kasper of NPR's "The Splendid Table" fame. Her recipe calls for only best quality heavy cream and Parmigiano-Reggiano Cheese along with a bit of butter and the Best-Quality Fettuccine available and this is certainly that! I love to add minced Prosciutto it and my family loves it! Plus you dinner on the table in 30 to 40 minutes max!

     So many whole wheat pastas sold in grocery stores taste like straw. I believe that if a food is good for you, it should also taste good. (Otherwise, why not just live on vitamin pills?) This penne satisfies my taste buds and fulfills my high standards for quality and nutritional value. Great with sauces or in a pasta salad. (Add a few caper berries and almond-stuffed olives with that broccoli!)

Oh, and FYI make sure you let your clams de-sand themselves long enough otherwise you will get the displeasure of tasting the beach as well.

We served it with sauteed carrots, butter and sea salt and freshly ground pepper. Stunning!
• Primo Exotic Pasta gift box
  1. As a gift, was a total hit!
     Review Date: 12/19/2009; By: Sarah Eick ( Wind Gap, PA )
     The package is heavy 31-lbs and if you are sending it as a gift it is packaged for safe shipping not for display. So you may want to have it shipped to you and lay it out as you would want it to be presented, if that is important to you. The box is beautiful, and the variety and amount of products makes it difficult to set up for display... which is a good problem. I purchased this as a gift to give to my aunt and uncle for the Holidays. It was a less expensive trip back to Italy for them which they absolutely loved... The comment was that I "out did myself," so thank you Avanti Savoia for making me look good! You are now a permanent bookmark! I did top off the gift with some homemade cookies and two containers of their favorite Italian espresso, Illy's, which I had to purchase elsewhere, since they don't carry it here. Perhaps in Italy illy's is like what Folgers is to Americans. Even if that is the case... it still beats any espresso I've had thus far in the states. The package left a great lasting impression, and I look forward to hearing the reviews on its contents!

     Garofalo Spaghettini is an excellent choice. The flavor is very good, and the texture allows the noodle to hold sauce exceptionally well. Prior to cooking, if you run your fingers down it, this noodle is slightly rough - like fine sandpaper. This allows it to hold sauce better than many of its competitors.

  1. Himalayan Sea Salt Tile 8x8x2
     Review Date: 05/16/2013; By: HARRIET GLASMAN ( KNOXVILLE, TN )
     It took me several attempts to learn how to cook the food without having too much salt absorbed from the tile. What I have learned is that the most important element of cooking on it is to heat to a very high temp. I would say 500 F. You must have it so hot that the food cooks in minutes. Otherwise the food will be too salty. I like it and plan to continue using it. It's fairly easy to clean and store. I wrap it in a towel to store it. You must use very thinly sliced food or it will have to cook longer, therefore absorbing more salt.

     I was very surprised at the ease of cooking this! I have made risotto in the past with mixed results, I found this to be the perfect texture. The flavor is light and not fake or salty like most supermarket boxed rice. It had a very subtle tart flavor from the artichoke that tasted "clean". I used water and chicken stock when I made it for added flavor. The portion size is perfect. I would buy again!

     I've never enjoyed risotto... until now. I'm patiently awaiting your new shipment of this product so I can go bananas and purchase far more. Until then, I've ordered and tried your other risotto flavors and they are equally as amazing. I never knew I was living deprived all these years...

     I had heard the term "Sicilian Gravy" several times before so I wanted to try this product. It's excellent! We had it for Sunday dinner with real Italian spaghetti, mild Italian sausages and some lovely Parmigiano-Reggiano. The "gravy" is so smooth, with wonderful slow cooked flavor. I understand why it's also called Sunday gravy or Sunday sauce! I'd buy it again!

     Review Date: 02/24/2012; By: Marcia H Laska ( Bartow, WV )
     The smokiness and citrus with a hint of sweet oakiness is a fun addition to meats and even hearty veggie mixes. It is a big wow in mashed potatoes. Wherever I've used it, someone always asks what special spice I used.

  1. Will buy this sugar again
     Review Date: 12/30/2012; By: Vicki Stewart ( Saint Peters, MO )
     I bought this sugar as part of an order out of curiosity because it was priced reasonably. The first time I used it I added it to a cup of coffee and was amazed at the flavor. I will buy this product again and find other ways to use it.

     Review Date: 07/06/2012; By: James H. Prentice ( Los Angeles, CA )
     Impossible to Imagine Bees gathering at a pine cone fest, but, that's exactly what this honey suggests. Very unique and savory. Treasure each serving of this nector and swoon. I've had to hide this one from myself on occasion from a deep desire it gives me to go mountain climbing. I live at the beach in Southern California. Ha.

     I thought it would be better or at least as good as the pumpkin butter that I make; it wasn't. It had an after taste that I did not care for when eaten by itself. It was pretty good on bread.

     This is good as well as "good for the eyes". I've always enjoyed meals with this veg included. I'm going to try it that way with some spices added & how about marshmallows? I like applebutter as well, eating it on toast at breakfast, so I will experiment with it too. The 1st taste has a vinegary taste but haven't looked at contents yet. Thanks for teaching me about the foods I would have never known without "AvantiSovia". These are my words as I didn't read yours until I got through.

     This product falls short as a spread & is very messy to handle. It might season a soup or something well, but it's almost like you're eating a raw product on its own.

• Extra Virgin Olive Oil with Black Truffle Average 5.0 out of 2 Reviews
  1. Pricey but worth it!
     Review Date: 03/22/2009; Anonymous
     Honestly I expected the bottle to be bigger based on cost. Regardless of price you won't find another oil like this. After I ordered the first bottle and tried it, I went back online and ran them out of stock for very good reason - this oil is amazing. I try to use it sparingly but it always calls out "you know I am the best just use me"....when they say EVERYONE should have this in their kitchen that is not a sales pitch! It is the satisfied belly truth.

     There are times when you want to use something other then an off the shelf "white wine V". This vinegar has a most subtle flavor and the real flavors actually come singing through.
