Sarson's Distilled Malt Vinegar

Sarson's is an iconic British brand with a history dating back to 1794, when it was founded by Thomas Sarson. It is most famous for its malt vinegar, which remains a staple in British households and fish and chip shops. The brand prides itself on a traditional craft-brewing process that takes seven days to complete, ensuring its distinctively tangy flavor profile.

Throughout its long history, the brand has changed hands several times. In 2012, Sarson's was acquired from Premier Foods by Mizkan Euro Ltd, the European subsidiary of the Japanese-based Mizkan Group. Despite the international ownership, the production remains deeply rooted in the United Kingdom, specifically at the historic Middleton vinegar brewery in Manchester, where it has been produced for decades.

The ultimate owner, Mizkan Group, is a global leader in condiments and vinegars, headquartered in Handa, Japan. The brand continues to represent traditional British heritage under the stewardship of this Japanese multinational corporation.
