Wilderness Family Naturals' coconut vinegar is made from the sap of the coconut tree, which is called "tuba". Tuba is collected from the stem that "feeds" the coconuts. A "Tuba Collector" collects the sap from each tree daily. Once collected, the sap (or tuba) is allowed to ferment into a natural coconut vinegar. Natural fermentation takes 45-60 days. Unfiltered and unheated, it is then bottled and sealed fresh to protect its goodness. The color of the vinegar changes as it ages, from cloudy white to light yellow to a clear light brown as it further matures. As the vinegar ages, sediments will appear at the bottom. Film and coin-like gel will also appear and eventually become the "mother vinegar". They eventually thicken and float. This is a natural characteristic of natural coconut nectar vinegar and to savor its natural goodness, you will want to shake it well before using. This vinegar is produced and processed at a coconut plantation in the Philippines. It contains no water, no added sugar, no preservatives and is chemical-free. This coconut vinegar works very well in dips, salad dressings and mayonnaise recipes.
