Good Afternoon
Matt
Thank you very
much for your enquiry. Occasionally our supplier of the base used to
make the Red Russian products uses isinglass (derived from Sturgeon
collagen) to fine / clear the bases after the fermentation process, this
can be dependant on how quickly they need to make the base.
We are very
sorry, but currently we cannot guarantee that all the base that is
supplied to us has not had isinglass used to fine it. However, the
isinglass is all filtered out of the base because it is only used as a
processing aid. Apart from this no other animal, fish or dairy products
are used in Red Russian.
I had a look at
your website by the way and although I’m not a vegetarian myself I will
recommend it to others as it seems to be a very useful resource.
Kind regards
Maxine
