Nope...I usually don't tweak...I'm too much of a souse with wine to care ROFL!!!
Besides...I just like making the kits...I enjoy what Winexpert does...this HoHo methinks will be fantastic!!! It'll be like Christmas in a bottle!! I like the cinnamon stick idea :)
Toodles!!
I came across this listing this morning...hope it's valid LOL!!!

We are pleased to announce this year's limited edition program, LE14.
This marks the 25th anniversary of the Winexpert Limited Edition program, the biggest and best...
This sounds awesome!! Mine's on order :r
"New Island Mist Merlot HO HO has notes of orange, cranberry, spice and cloves paired with round, fruit-forward Merlot. This unique Island Mist can be enjoyed at room temperature or slightly warmed."...
I've made only WE but I've thoroughly enjoyed every Cheeky Monkey and CC that has been passed on down to me!! Which has been numerous over the last year...a buddy and his wife started into the hobby...that's all they make...we trade bottles :D

I apologize...I should not have called you a snob...your comment was snobbish...
By saying a 10L kit is inferior is wrong...sorry...
I've been a Scotch drinker for 25+ years now...I know my Scotch...I love a big smokey Scotch from the North or a peaty version from Islay...but I would...
And this needed to be repeated as well:
"I would not spend any $ on anything less than a 16L kit...But why spend you time, effort and carboy space on something that maybe inferior to the good stuff."
That's just being a snob and especially to people starting out...
Again...nothing...
Hey Drock!!
Don't get hooked into the notion that "lower" end kits are a waste of money and time or that they are bad...I very much dislike it when statements like that are used as a generalization...there are lots of GREAT 10L\12L kits from Winexpert, Vineco and RJS...
Check out a...
Yes yes yes...thank you!!
That's all I'm trying to get at...you can't make a Chianti into an Amarone so why try...make what you like and enjoy regardless...that's the way of the DIY community...

You have no idea the taste palette a person has or the situation they're in so common courtesy should be a given!!
Are you saying that a Chevy is crap?? If so...then your statement is correct :)
As for your other statement..."I presume that WE takes more care in sourcing the grapes for a $110 kit than they do for a $70 kit"...again I would say that to be untrue as well...
WE and Vineco are owned by...
WOW!! LOL!! Stats...love stats!!
K...so let me break this down my way...
I like Pinot Grigio...Italian...I've enjoyed many commercial brands...so one day I decide to make one...I chose the World Vineyard kit from WE...$78.00 here at my local Saskatoon store...
Loved it!! Could easily...
