Yugeta Koikuchi Dark Soy Sauce Koikuchi the classic Japanese soy sauce used for dipping sushi and gyoza dumplings. This version comes from Yugeta, a fourth-generation company.

Poppy’s Caramel & White Cheddar Popcorn At the risk of upsetting all of Chicago and anyone else who claims ownership of the sweet and savory combination of caramel popcorn and cheese popcorn, I’m ready to declare this version from Asheville, North Carolina the best I’ve tried. Their salted caramel coats the popcorn like a second skin and the white cheddar popcorn has a rich cheddar flavor I’ve rarely come across. P-PCC 5.5 oz bag $13 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE
Feta Voras from Greece Mount Voras is one of the highest peaks in Florina, the province in northwest Greece where brothers Sokratis and Andreas make traditional feta. Their cheese is almost entirely sheep’s milk from the local Florina breed.

Gingerbread Caramels Made with heavy cream, salted butter, molasses, and a not-too-spicy blend of ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice to create a comforting and recognizable warm gingerbread flavor. Each bite is so soft, so buttery, so lusciously indulgent, that it’s hard not to close your eyes to fully focus on the enjoyment. P-GCR 4 oz box, 10-12 caramels $10 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE
Carosello Pasta Mike Carosello learned the art of pasta making from the masters in Florence, then set up shop in Dexter, Michigan. He does all the right things: he starts with freshly milled semolina wheat, extrudes through bronze dies so the pasta grips sauce better, and dries the pasta slowly for great flavor. Gigli is a short, flower shaped cone with ruffled edges. Fusilli are twists. Both are great for chunky sauces. P-CAR-GIG 1 lb bag gigli $14 P-CAR-FUS 1 lb bag fusilli $14 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Warm them up, break one open and put your nose up close. You’ll smell sweet butter, Indonesian cinnamon, real vanilla. But the real treat is next. Take one bite.

Tradizionali Balsamics
from Modena
Balsamic vinegar has been made in attics all around Modena, Italy, for centuries. Balsamic barrels were (and still are!) made to celebrate the birth of a daughter, and later used as her dowry. Such a precious resource was eaten only rarely, and then only on the richest of foods: sizzling roast meats or sumptuous stuffed pastas. Today, though, practically all balsamic on the shelf bears only a fleeting resemblance to these treasured family heirlooms. Our balsamics from Acetaia del Cristo in San Prospero, just north of Modena, Italy, are the traditional product, aged for decades, judged in a blind tasting to make sure they meet the local standards of excellence. Only a tiny amount is released each year, so our quantities are very limited. These are special occasion balsamics, offered with a rarely seen discount.
Tradizionali Balsamics from Acetaia del Cristo These are the vinegars about which legends have been woven. Tested by a panel of judges, the qualifiers in Modena are graded gold and white. During the decadeslong aging process, the vinegar is shifted from barrels of one type of wood to the next. Cherry, chestnut, oak and mulberry all leave their imprint on the flavor of the vinegar. The result is an almost unbelievable concentration of sweet-sour flavor in a dense, intense, brown-black vinegar that hints of berries, grapes, vanilla. There is nothing like it in the world. An amazing treat you'll always remember. All traditional balsamics from Modena are bottled in Ferrari designer Giorgio Guigiaro's streamlined, sexy bottle, then gift boxed. They may all look the same, but the vinegar is not. We buy ours from Acetaia del Cristo. I think their vinegars are consistently fantastic—and the juniper aged version is unique.
