About
The story of Karo Brandy begins on Karoolkie, a small 6-hectare farm in the centre of Barrydale. Here, a block of Colombar grapes grows under the Karoo sun. For Gerald Phillips and his wife Carol, the journey from owning a block of single-origin grapes to holding the first bottle of Karo Cape Brandy was written in the stars. During a Tarot card reading with famed astrologer Rod Suskin, Gerald was told two things: that he would peak at the age of 78; and that something special was going to happen involving ‘wine’. Little did Gerald know that this prophecy would ring true 15 years later and culminate in the creation of a very special brandy. On the day of his 77th birthday, Gerald Phillips proudly raised a glass from the very first bottle of 3-year-old premium Karo Cape Brandy XO.

Here at OneDayOnly we pride ourselves on two things:
Our remarkable ability to remember quotes from practically any movie, and our skill in catering to almost any person in South Africa.
The latter is the harder of the two, because A) we haven't met everyone in the R of SA and 2) our personal tastes can hardly be used as a benchmark for things other people may enjoy.
Still, through sheer determination and never-miss-an-episode viewings of 7de Laan, we like to think we hit the proverbial nail on the head more often than not.
And in the almost unfathomable event that we're completely wrong and nothing on our cyber-shelves appeals to you, we'd like to leave you with the following gem from Lord of the Rings:
"Use the force, Harry." - Edward Cullen.
