In general, vinegar is a product suitable for people with coeliac disease or gluten sensitivity.
It is made from plant-based products which contain sugars or starchy substances. Although most vinegars are gluten-free, occasionally, due to their manufacturing process or origin (malt vinegar), they may contain gluten. Other possible exceptions include certain flavoured vinegars which may contain added ingredients with gluten.
The artisanal vinegars and bittersweets brewed at our factory in Mollerussa do not contain gluten or bear any risk of cross contamination.
You may enjoy them with no worries of any kind, awakening all five senses in every culinary experience.
On the labels of our vinegars you’ll read ‘May produce natural sediments’. We’ll tell you why!
If some time after buying your vinegar you see a possibly strange-looking substance, don’t throw it out! Just the opposite: appreciate it, as it represents a synonym of natural product, of living product. This sediment, called vinegar dregs, is a biofilm produced by the vinegar’s fermentation, composed of a form of cellulose and bacteria – the beneficial sort – which transform the alcohol in wine into acetic acid.
All natural, unpasteurised vinegars may show the presence of this viscosity and turbidity in time. These substances are not found in industrial vinegars because they are removed for aesthetic reasons.
Give a second life to your vinegar dregs and use them to make your own vinegar at home!

Traditionally innovative
Every generation of Badia Vinagres has contributed to the project in its own way; we’ve even combined artisanal vinegar production with a liqueur factory! The current generation’s grandfather Agustí and father began to specialise the company in vinegar. With the collaboration of the Faculty of Oenology at Rovira i Virgili University in Tarragona, the father Agustí Badia made important discoveries in the field of research which have allowed us to add new and innovative flavours to our catalogue. With the creation of a previously nonexistent product, the Gardeny brand was born, with a high position in the market. Judit and Marta, the fifth generation of Badias, joined the family business in 2006 and 2011, respectively. They are two passionate and endlessly curious people whose DNA is laced with the need to innovate and to disseminate the passionate world of vinegar. From this new generation of Badias at the head of the family business, we expect to hear very surprising proposals and bring vinegar closer to the world.
Currently, we have a dozen vinegars of very different kinds on the market, as well as four bittersweets. Their traditional and innovative flavours are the fruit of our passion for vinegar, the knowledge acquired over decades and our constant desire to innovate. We want to show the world that vinegar is a fascinating product, as is good wine. In fact, our motto is “From good wine, good vinegar” and with it we aim to showcase our product, not only for its quality, but also for the opportunities it offers us. We brew vinegars and bittersweets with the best organic wines of the Mediterranean.
From the typical plastic bottle of wine vinegar you’ve surely all had at home, to the creation of our brand Gardeny and its recent evolution, there is over a century of work, perseverance and patience. We do our job with passion and respect for the magic of that which possesses history and tradition.
