Aromatic Vinegar – Holy Cell of Saint George – Mount Athos

Description

Athonite Aromatic Vinegar with Pure Herbs from the Land of Athos

The Mount Athos aromatic vinegar is made from 100% natural ingredients, following an authentic Athonite recipe. With care and passion, Monk Meliton from the Holy Koutloumousian Cell of Saint George prepares and bottles this exquisite Athonite vinegar.

The herbs used for its production are gathered from the pristine soils on the slopes of Mount Athos, and are then added to the vinegar to create a product with roots in ancient traditional recipes of the Athonite cuisine. The perfect combination of vinegar and herbs creates a wonderful flavor, while simultaneously offering various health benefits to the human body.

Uses and Benefits

The vinegar imparts its aroma and wonderful flavor to vegetables, salads, and a wide variety of dishes, while also providing numerous health benefits. Specifically, it has antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. It also reduces blood glucose levels, helps lower cholesterol, and has antihypertensive effects. Additionally, studies show that it can help individuals with osteoporosis by increasing the absorption of calcium and non-heme iron in the body. It has also been found that vinegar consumption contributes positively to combating obesity.

As is well known, vinegar is an excellent natural preservative for meats, fish, and vegetables. It is used as a main ingredient in marinades, and when added to food that is being cooked, all of its acidity evaporates, leaving only its rich aroma.
