Bragg Organic Vinegar is Watered Down since 2020
Bragg Vinegar was sold to the private equity firm Swander Pace Capital in 2019 and now waters down the vinegar. Fairchild's vinegar offers a very higher quality of apple cider vinegar 6.3% acidity. I will never buy Bragg Organic Vinegar 5% acidity again. Food companies make changes without any information being given to the consumers. We need to do more research to know what we are putting in our bodies. Especially, items like ACV which offers health benefits. Put the brands side by side and see the difference. Fairchild's is much darker.... Show more

Excellent!
I ordered Bragg Organic Apple Cider Vinegar from iHerb, and it’s been a fantastic addition to my daily routine here in Baku, Azerbaijan. 🇦🇿 I’ve tried other brands before, but this one stands out with its pure, unfiltered quality. I use it in salad dressings, and it also helps with my digestion when I take a small amount in the morning. It has a great, tangy flavor that’s just right, and knowing it’s organic gives me peace of mind. Let alone the fact that it comes with the "mother," the main ingredient that gives it its murky and cloudy substance look. I’m really pleased with this purchase and will definitely be ordering it again! 💚 Good that I ordered 2, and other orders are yet to come.... Show more

Good 😊
Many people attribute apple cider vinegar’s effects to the "mother." There’s some truth to this since the mother counts as a probiotic. But, the importance of the mother has not been established with research. Aside from probiotics, ACV has a vitamin profile similar to apple juice. Hence, the sour drink is ripe with B-vitamins and polyphenols (plant-based antioxidants).All in all, the probiotics, acetic acid, and the nutrients in ACV are responsible for its health benefits.The size of the product is okay.Apple cider vinegar has been used for ages for its medicinal properties. It is made by combining apples with yeast, which creates alcohol and is later fermented into acetic acid by adding bacteria. Not just this, the drink contains water, minerals, vitamins ...

Good quality
I am very pleased with the product, the quality is very good, I like the taste, and I like it because it is raw, unfiltred and unpasteorized. I have used ACV for several things in my life! I have always been satisfied with the results. Hair...skin...diet...I have taken more than a couple teaspoons a day and been just fine! Sometimes it fades out of my diet but it always finds it's way back in. One time I had pink eye and looked up natural remedies and I tried ACV and it worked. Was amazed. Obviously it's in your digression if you want to use natural remedies or not but I have nothing but positive things to say. Do your research and use it right. Everything in moderation.... Show more

Lip-Smackin’ Good!
The Bragg ACV Apple Cinnamon drink is soooo good - lip smackin’ good! I make ice cubes with Hint water, and pour the ACV Apple Cinnamon beverage over the cubes … oh my - it’s tart, crisp, and delicious! Evokes memories of stopping at a roadside fruit stand in Colorado (between Denver and Boulder, I think - it’s been 40 years since I moved away!) and drinking a fresh, cold, tart mug of apple cider on an Indian summer day, the aspen leaves beginning to quake in the warm breeze coming down the Front Range. Don’t be afraid of the word “vinegar” … the Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar “Apple Cinnamon” flavor beverage has bright flavor pop … I close my eyes and travel back in time to a beautiful place. Drinking it is good for your body, and savoring the tangy flavor experience ... MoreThe Bragg ACV Apple Cinnamon drink is soooo good - lip smackin’ good!

Previous ordered bottles not so good
The last two bottles I ordered were terrible. This jar is great! My guess is the prior jars were stored incorrectly, too hot of an area? Yes, LOL, I know, vinegar does not go bad per say, but the flavor can be negatively affected by incorrect storage. They were NASTY.Negative thing here is when I tried to get a refund for the nasty tasting ACV from before, they wanted me to bring it back to the store... I order delivery for a reason.Doesn't make sense for me to drive there, spending an hour plus in total time returning this item. Walmart needs to make this returnable as stress free as they do their fresh produce. I ended up using the nasty ACV ( ~$13.00) to clean the kitchen/bathroom drains. What a waste of money....

product sucks
We have been using the ACV with mother for years to do final rinse after bathing our dog. Seems like everytime we attempt to buy it now, they have modified the product and we either have to throw it out (opened) or take it back to the store because it has pepper, honey, or any number of other ingredients. The company has to be pushing shelving displays because the basic product is not available. If they want all the alternatives, a better marketing approach would be to highlight attention product variations. Basically it was a find product. Will not purchase it again given the number of times we have been frustrated with wrong product or not available at local retailer. Dumping another bottle down the drain today because yet again a new ingredient.... Show more

Topnotch ACV!
Bragg's has an honorable reputation as far as brands go, for good reason, especially leaving the 'mother' (those loose pieces) in the apple cider vinegar. ACV is naturally acidic, so be sure that you will have no reaction to it. Many people have reported loosing weight after taking it for 2-4 weeks every morning.Most people start slow, taking one (1) teaspoon mixed with water and building slowly up to 1-2 tablespoons. Some still find the taste hard to handle with water, but find it more palatable when mixed with apple juice. Like anything, taste preference is personal.I prefer Bragg's organic, unfiltered choice (with the mother), but any of Bragg's selections are pure and good. Bragg's is highly recommended......
