Born 5,000 years B.C. from the encounter between alcohol and the air of time, vinegar is the result of a formidable natural alchemy that stings wine and turns it sour (vin-aigre). A true artisan of taste, Jean-Philippe has won a number of awards for his vinegars, which are fermented in oak barrels using fresh, local produce and no additives, colorants or sugar. A fascinating visit. Excellence, far from the norm.

Owner's Message
Saint-Jacques vinegar factory in Mauléon, Basque Country (64)
Our vinegars are produced on the spot with local products, of quality and fresh fermented fruits.
My range is composed of apple or cider vinegar, beer vinegar, wine vinegar, pear vinegar, pepper vinegar, cherry vinegar and blueberry vinegar. They are fermented in oak barrels according to the Orleans method. The refining continues several years in barrels selected for their old container as the cognac for the apple-cinnamon vinegar, the whiskey for the pear vinegar...
My ambition is to offer you the best possible product elaborated with healthy products and in the respect of the environment.

Merci pour votre gentillesse et de faire partager un savoir faire ancestral , un métier que l'on vois peu..
Dommage on a pas pû visité la maison des châtaignes, le monsieur était absent ce jour..
Même belle impression pour la maison de la châtaigne , juste derrière, où nous avons rencontré aussi deux personnes passionnées par ce qu'elles font.
Allez y, cela vaut le détour ! ;D
Je ne peux que vous recommander d'y aller.
