This isn’t going to be a typical blog entry!! However I have permission from my friend Kevin that I can blog about it. You see….I can’t believe I have a friend whose favourite drink is MANISCHEWITZ CONCORD (on ice).
He was recently in Toronto visiting with his lovely family. His parents threw a party for the occasion and I noticed there were TWO bottles of Manischewitz amongst the wine/scotch/and beer. I was so surprised to see this brand that I said something to Mrs. D….and she replied: “Oh that’s Kevins favorite drink…he requested for me to buy two bottles”.
Seriously…. this just blew me away.
Please meet Kevin who could be the poster boy for this SWEET…SWEET (err…off the scales SWEET) wine.
Most Jewish people (including myself) have a long history with this brand but it’s not something we drink socially…except for Kevin!
A few years ago, I found out that this particular brand is one of ten listed products that you will find in EVERY SINGLE LCBO store. I asked the sales rep: “Who is drinking this brand?” and he replied that it’s widely used in PUNCH, due to its’ high sugar content. Too funny.
Anyway…cheers to my friend Kevin!
