In fact, winemakers from Australia and other wine producing countries come here to learn best practices in this area.
One of the leading producers in this area is, without a doubt, Avondale.
Their guiding ethos is &#8220;Soil is Life&#8221; &#8211; Terra Est [...]]]></description>

Tequila tasting was the objective.
Our job was to taste our way through 8 tequilas and vote on the most preferred.
We had 4 white tequilas and 4 reposados to taste.
To explain; there are 5 kinds of tequilas.
Blanco, white or silver tequila, this is un-aged, and bottled after distillation.

Blind tasting vodka is no task for the fainthearted. 
You are tasting a liquid that is supposed to be clear, odourless and flavourless. 
But vodkas do have a distinct nose and flavour.

It has just been launched and will retail for R200, which is a steal at that price. Only 8,000 bottles [...]]]></description>

Food pairing with wine and beer is as accepted by consumers as something so natural that there&#8217;s no need to even think twice about it. But with brandy? Who would have ever thought of that? Well actually, it&#8217;s a completely normal, if not a well known way to pair food.

The word coffee comes from the Arabic word Quawa (meaning wine of the bean). This became Kahve in Turkish, and the Dutch transported it to Europe as Koffie.

Ketchup has been around for over 200 years. Made from tomatoes, vinegar, corn syrup, salt, sugar and spices it is as indispensable to a modern kitchen as  butter or milk.
