We're pleased to introduce our latest specialty wine, our Jumping Cholla Beverages Jumping Cholla wine! Sure, we promised the US Patent and Trademark Office that our brand name was not descriptive and that we'd never produce anything that was made from this plant, but promises shomises, am I right?

Tasting notes: Tastes like annoyance on a hike with hints of desert dust, sudden regret, and that unmistakable “why didn’t I wear long pants” finish. Pairs beautifully with cursing, tweezers, and a strong desire to never leave the trail again.
