I used to get mine from a company called Dash -n- Drizzle up north but they don't sell outside the region and the cost for delivery is actually more than the cost of the bottle so that won't be an option.

It is similar in consistency to balsamic glaze, but it has no added ingredients. It is fermented grape must, boiled into a reduction and stored in a wooden keg for 12-50 years (depending on the quality), and made exclusively in Modena, Italy. Several online companies sell it but again - shipping costs are prohibitive.
