Are Single-Serving Wines Missing Something?
Getting endorsement from a certain hotel heiress is probably not doing anything for the reputation of the products, but the market for single-serving wines is growing by leaps and bounds. The wines are a great alternative to opening a whole bottle for occasional drinkers or those who only use wine in cooking. They're also more convenient to tote around to picnics and events than full-sized bottles. But some consumers feel that the small packaging, especially the cans and juice-style boxes, are ruining the elegance of drinking wine, despite the fact that better and better wines are being packaged this way. Is the new packaging changing your perception of the product? Are single-serving wines really missing that certain something that makes wines appealing in the first place?BZ Boxes
For collectors of fine watches, jewelry, pens or
cigars, having elegant cases is key. BZ Boxes are made by artisans in Brazil
and use exotic woods. The internal structure of boxes are made of wood compound materials and the exteriors are done in
real wood veneers or solid wood. The boxes with gold leaf use 18 karat gold and all the glass components, on the lid and
inside mirrors are beveled. The boxes can be customized with a wide variety of details from wood choices to linings,
engraved metal plaques or your initials in gold leaf. Each box has a serial number and a one year warranty. They are
wholesale only with a minimum of ten boxes per order. The box shown here is a humidor with a removable cedar wood tray
and hygrometer.
