Este vinagre aromatizado foi produzido através da maceração de ingredientes naturais em Vinagre de Sidra, posteriormente envelhecido em cascos de carvalho francês de 225 e 350 Litros. A Hortelã Pimenta, nomeadamente as suas folhas e caule, foram introduzidas no momento da acetificação do Vinagre de Sidra. Teve um processo de envelhecimento nas barricas de carvalho francês durante 7 anos. Esta maceração é essencial para que o vinagre ganhe o aroma fresco e característicos desta espécie da menta. Este produto foi elaborado a partir de matérias-primas sem adição de produtos fitofarmacêuticos. Todos os produtos foram colhidos manualmente e durante a sua época natural de maturação. Durante o engarrafamento, não houve qualquer processo de filtração, sendo apenas utilizado a decantação natural. Assim sendo, o vinagre poderá conter algum depósito e não estar completamente límpido.
