A variety of gastronomical sensations waited patiently as lovers of the culinary arts moved among the shop’s offerings allowing their taste buds to guide them toward what flavor they would be delighted by first. The selection proved to be an enormous one providing a challenge to the choosing process as each oil and vinegar held a distinctive personality designed to enhance the experience of any meal one might conjure in their kitchen.

A sizable gathering of friends and food lovers filled the modestly sized shop to partake of its delights. A tasty assortment of appetizers and beverages greeted the attendees which was consumed along with the samplings of gourmet balsamic vinegars which are aged vinegars whose years has allowed them to obtain a syrupy consistency and infused olive oils which have certain spices and other ingredients designed to add a nuanced quality to the preparation of any cuisine requiring a specific flavor. The combination of the aromas and satisfying vittles seasoned the conversation as pre holiday purchases were made allowing an opportunity of manifesting the dreams of what dishes could be created through the liquid they obtained inspired a thoughtful smile.
