How its made
At Pizca, we believe in the power of natural fermentation. It all starts by carefully cutting the plantains into pieces and allowing them to hang on a cloth. Over time, the sugars and salts within the plantains begin to slowly drip, drop by drop, filling our barrels with their essence. Fermentation is a dynamic process that involves various elements present in every environment: air, water, sugar/energy, bacteria, and time. When these elements come together intentionally, vinegar is born. None of these elements are lost; instead, they transform into a liquid of exquisite flavors.

The bacteria remain, creating a mother culture that you can observe floating gracefully in our bottles. Through this natural fermentation process, we unlock the true essence of plantains, transforming them into distinctive and flavorful vinegar. It’s a labor of love and a testament to our commitment to quality and tradition.

At Pizca, we believe in the power of time-honored techniques and the art of fermentation to bring out the best in our ingredients. Experience the extraordinary flavors of our plantain vinegar, crafted with care and expertise, and elevate your culinary creations to new heights.
