Buckfast
Living in southern ontario (kitchener) and wondering if anyone has ever came across the old tonic wine. Would love a wee bottle from time to time. Any chance?

Re: Buckfast
You can buy it on line here
BumWine.com - Others
I remember being really sick on that when I was about 14...never again!
Good luck

Re: Buckfast
My old next door neighbour, bless him, used to drive lorries and stop off at the abbey overnight. He used to bring me home a couple of bottles a week. Sometimes he'd give me the "special" stuff the monks didn't put on sale. I couldn't taste the difference to be honest as it was all like bloody treacle anyway.
Good stuff for a buzz though

Two bottles in my fridge that my parents brought over in the summer.
I love the stuff, many people think it tastes horrible but i'm a big fan
