Brand

Modena Estense

Straßwalchen, Salzburg

Modena Estense is a natural products brand from Straßwalchen, Salzburg with 9 products on Beacon Discovery, mostly refrigerated cheese & plant based cheese and shelf stable pasta. 3 are Certified Organic, and its range is distributed by Not in Distribution.

The date 1598, as featured in our Modena Estense logo, not only marks the year that Modena became the capital of the Duchy of Modena and Reggio Emilia and the new Duke Cesare d'Este moved into the city with his family. It also marks the moment when the family encountered a flavor that would shape their destiny for centuries: balsamic vinegar. Whether the sweet vinegar was seen as compensation for the loss of Ferrara to Pope Clement VIII is not known. What is known, however, is that a separate acetaia was set up in the duke's castle for its production – and that this high-quality vinegar was known as l'aceto del duca long before it became known as balsamic vinegar under the name still in use today.
