About Kamil Juices

Our Roots

We came to Canada, thirty-two years ago from the area of Europe where wine was almost a daily part of our diet. Besides that, working in vineyards and wine cellars (well before the Sixty Minutes "French Paradox, Resveratrol and recent findings of anti-aging compounds in wine etc.), our families celebrated ups and downs in life with the grape fermented nectar. Only now we have realized no one in our families left this planet before being well "aged".

Our first steps in the continuity of an old tradition of enjoying the wine - what a sin - started a quarter century ago with pressing, locality unknown grapes and making wines from concentrates. Trying to find the old formula of the magic touch alchemy (the medieval attempt to transmute base metals into gold or silver), the results from local grapes and concentrates were less than successful. Imagine, we were losing friends. Their comments were, "We will gladly visit you but please don't serve your great self-made chateaux." What an excellent anti-alcohol tool. We should have patented our product under the slogan "drink our wine and we guarantee you will become a 'Teetotaller' in six weeks." (Similar to today's weight loss commercialism).

The last 27 years of our own research has shown that pure fresh vinifera grape juices yield a superior product. To that end, we have come up with a product that will satisfy the most discerning homewinemaker. This result was achieved in co-operation with the professional winemakers and Oenologists in different countries. May we present to you as a future customer our single strength 100% pure fresh vinifera grape musts from Europe. They are not concentrates and you don't add any water. Imagine, just squeezing the grapes and collecting the resulting grape juice. This is exactly our product. Not chemically manufactured like concentrated products. They're available 365.25 days of the year.
