Put Obsessed to the (Taste) Test:
We’ve all heard of boxed wine and, having tried it or not, can appreciate the stigma. But what about canned wine? Tiamo has red, white, and rose in cans, which could either be a great summer treat or a terrible idea. C + D shared a can of Organic Rosé picked up from a local World Market and rated it pretty highly.
