White wine vinegar, hibiscus, orange, and allspice\n
\n
If there were such a thing as sipping vinegars, this would be the epitome. Hibiscus and orange rind seamlessly mellow the sharp edges of white vinegar, resulting in a delightful flavor profile \u2014 sweet and floral with nuanced allspice overtones.\n
