VOM FASS offers exclusive cask-aged vinegars, exquisite oils, exclusive liqueurs and spirits. We take pride in selling all our products in a variety of quantities and dispensing them into any of our traditional and elegant bottles. Each bottle is inscribed with a special message, or simply with details of their contents and, upon request, beautifully wrapped - compliments of VOM FASS. As always, our customers are encouraged to return with their bottles for a refill!
Our award-winning offerings, combined with our knowledgeable and enthusiastic staff, allow VOM FASS to offer an exceptional product range and quality of service with a personal touch. Selling straight from the cask to the customer also brings back that relationship originally found when customers used to buy directly from the producer, giving you greater flexibility and choice.
Today, we are the premier leader and retailer of exclusive vinegars, fresh oils, select wines and exquisite spirits and liqueurs, directly from the cask. We are happy to share our exceptional products with customer’s everyday worldwide.
