This company “Mendis” is advertising that this coconut brandy is the first ever to be made. It is merely an overpriced Arrack- a liquor distilled from the coconut sap pressed from the flowers of palm trees before they bloom. They probably purchased it from some poor Sri Lankan village distiller and packaged it up to look pretty and jacked up the price. Welcome to the human race- there are no firsts. Just advertisers that lie. This product is going to bomb.
Sounds like a brilliant idea to me. The company has E! Entertainment doing a segment on them, several world renowned magazines writing articles on them, plus the product comes with raved reviews from world critics (www.mendisbrandy.com/blog). Brilliant as no other alcohol company has done it before. Oh, not to mention the company is also the first to have category approval as a “coconut brandyâ€. Looks like Jeanine is completely wrong as this product has gained massive exposure from being a exquisite product – good on Mendis! and keep up the good work. Dont worry about slanderous remarks from people like Jeanini who don’t know what they are going on about.
I cannot judge your different points of view, but I’d be willing to judge the brandy.
