Well, I dont speak Bulgarian, but my daughter and Son-in-law do. I am an artist and I was given one of your blue bottles made for your Rakia from my Son-in-law. I made a beautiful dragonfly from it, and now I will be on HGTV April 6th at 8am Eastern US time, on a show called "Thats Clever". Anyhow, I would like to know if I can order just the bottles with-out the Rakia in them. Mainly because I would need to make alot of dragonflys from them and I couldnot possibly drink that much Rakia in one week. You can send me a message on my blog which is www.whisperingangelsart.blogspot.com
Thanks,
Karen Wassmer, Artist

Liquid cocaine found in bottles of Bolivian wine

July 16, 2009 Sophie Kevany in Lima, Peru The discovery of liquid cocaine in bottles of Bodegas Kohlberg wine has shocked the owners of the 40-year-old winery in northern Bolivia. The narcotic was found during a drugs inspection by customs officers in Bulgaria, at the port of Varna-West. Wines from Vinos Kohlberg are normally exported from Bolivia via the Chilean port of Arica. No Kohlberg wine is currently exported to Chile. 'We export about 10% of our production to the Czech Republic and China, via Chile, but those shipments have not even left yet,' said Herbert Kohlberg, marketing manager at the winery.

Of the 1020 bottles of Kohlberg wine – 765 litres - discovered by Bulgarian authorities, news agencies reported 714 litres was liquid cocaine. The rest – 68 bottles – was reported to be real wine. The Kohlberg winery is...

How did I get here? - Talking Heads - Once in a Lifetime (Official Video)

How Did I Get Here? I retired in 2021 after a long career as a wine importer and distributor in the U.S., a journey that began in 1996. But how did I get here? To answer that, I will share a few stories, along with articles from newspapers and magazines, for the record. First, I escaped communist Bulgaria in 1985 and arrived in Anchorage, Alaska. Since I had requested political asylum, the U.S. Immigration Service transferred me to Denver, Colorado, for processing. Back then, there was no Immigration Court in Alaska—I wonder if there is one there now. After months of waiting idly for my work permit and green card, I took a job in construction. Eventually, a kind Greek restaurant owner named Georgio, who had named his downtown Denver restaurant after himself, hired me as a busboy. Earning $3.75 an hour made me incredibly happy—not to mention the great food, which included a free meal, plus a few extra dollars in tips. I worked under the table until I finally obtained my work permit. Dur...
