What makes honey, honey? And why use the good stuff in vinegar making?

The Great Taste Awards are the Oscars of the fine-food business, and a 3 Star Great Taste Award is about the highest accolade a product can get.
Each year tens of thousands of products are judged, and only a tiny fraction (a couple of hundred or so) are given the highest award - the coveted 3 Stars.
So for a small, craft manufacturer like us to have won not one, but TWO 3 Star awards is really something. We’re quite chuffed.
Our flagship Artisan Malt Vinegar was the first product we made. By now it has a great string of awards to its name – and it now has the accolade of 3 Stars.
One of our newest products has also picked up 3 Stars. In 2025 we launched a range of vinegar-based probiotic ‘Shrub’ cordials, and Artisan Raspberry Shrub was awarded 3 Stars.
(And as the cherries on the cake, Artisan Blackberry Shrub was awarded 2 Stars, and Artisan Strawberry Shrub 1 Star.)
