CHEF ENTHUSES:
Quote from Jason Rowe of " Dine on the Rowe:"
"What I love about Womersley Vinegars is the versatility: whether you want
to add zing to grilled or slow cooked meats and stews, add new
dimensions to salads and roast vegetables or even add soda water (alcohol
not necessary) and just drink! Thinking of new cocktails now..."

Culinary Guide article
 Those lovely people at the Culinary Guide have written a beautiful article about us this week.
Here is an excerpt:
"There’s nothing quite like a glass of full bodied red and cheese, fruity
crumble and custard, or a roast with all the trimmings to warm the
heart and cockles on an ice cold eve. When two of Womersley Food’s
vinegars arrived last week – Blackcurrant and Rosemary and Lemon, Basil,
Bay & Juniper (£6.00 each for 250ml) - they seemed perfect for this
seasonal transition and the luxurious deep flavours I crave from now
until spring."
