We’re delighted that a dozen of our brand partners’ products have been awarded stars in this year’s prestigious Great Taste Awards.

Congratulations to Acetum which scooped 2-stars for its delicious 25 year aged Mazzetti Tradizionale Balsamic Vinegar as well as its Mazzetti White Condiment Vinegar, which judges described as ‘innovative’ - bravo Acetum on this double success!

Mutti achieved four Great Taste Awards, with its Passata Gastronomia Baby Plum winning a 2-star award. This special passata is made exclusively with baby plum tomatoes chosen for their sweet and delicious flavour. The passata was described by judges as ‘as good as homemade’. Mutti’s Passata with Basil was awarded 1-star alongside two organic products from its range – organic Chopped Tomatoes and Organic Passata. The Mutti Organic Passata was said by judges to be ‘packed with umami’ and ‘deeply flavoursome’.

Kikkoman achieved success too with 1-star awarded to both its Teriyaki Sauce with Sesame and Teriyaki BBQ Sauce with Honey. Kikkoman’s Organic Soy also scooped 1-star and was commended for its fragrance which was described as being full of ‘inviting umami notes’.

The Kühne range also achieved a triple with three awards. Stars were awarded for Kuhne’s Whole Pickled Gherkins, Gherkin Slices for Burgers and its Gourmet Selection Cornichons with Chilli – described by judges as ‘moreish’ and ‘beautifully made’.
