answerably South African liquor stores have come up with an important innovation: the Three-Pack, an All-Inclusive combo: a pack of Peter Stuyvesant cigarettes, two liters of Coca-cola, and a bottle of Richelieu brandy. All you need for an evening of fun. Minus the cigarettes I think I could have a pretty good time this way myself. But as with all things here there is a racial twinge to it all: whites complain – both in person and obliquely, through print media – that the country, though a superb wine producer, has almost no domestic wine market. Wine is considered an upscale taste, even though it is cheap and locally abundant. The country prefers beer, though it has difficulty sourcing hops. We have seen the label “House of Mandela” sold in the U.S. as both a cheap and certified-fair-trade wine, but it is not to be found here in South Africa.
South African All-In-One.
