I genuinely enjoy Buckfast and I refuse to be ashamed of it.

    how would you describe it? especially in contrast to the snobbery in the original post?

    Kind of like being under a bridge on one's knees orally pleasing a vagrant while simulataneously drinking liquified meth through a dirty rag. But in a good way though - definitely give it a try

    I think the description of the flavours were largely apt, barring the negative connotations. When thought about as its own category of beverage I think they can be pleasant. Just don't think you're going to be getting some wine, because that's not really what it is.

    it's looking like i can't buy it or import it to where i live, sadly 😔

    the descriptions made it sound like prune juice except caffeinated, alcoholic, and with a slightly broader flavor profile.

    I think I would've actually liked it, but allegedly it's a schedule 4 controlled substance according to the braindead dipshit assclowns at the Drug Enforcement Agency...🙄

    fucking feds. Typical bastard pig bullshit.

    My favourite local wine is also the favourite of homeless people, it comes in a carton.

    Box wine is actually a staple in Sweden where I live, but again without the negative connotations. Great way to be able to enjoy wine in moderation without having it spoil early - having to either commit to finishing a full bottle or have it spoil is a major hassle.
