CBC reports on Taybeh winery of “Palestine”

Sticker covering label on Palestinian wine bottle at LCBO ‘offensive,’ says Palestinian Canadian man

Read the CBC article: Taybeh wine bottles produced prior to 2020 had sticker as ‘interim solution,’ Ontario liquor board says, by Sara Jabakhanji · CBC News · Posted: Apr 22, 2022 4:00 AM ET 

Did CBC just say “Palestine” a dozen times!

Those in Ontario over legal drinking age of 19 years can order online through the LCBO Destination program to nearest LCBO store or for home delivery.

At present, there are five flavours of Taybeh beer and three vintages of Taybeh by Nadim wine available under the LCBO Destination program.

Palestine Just Trade’s response

Sara reached out to Palestine Just Trade just after 7 PM on April 21 saying an article going to press. This was our response, some of which was reflected in the article produced.

from:Palestine Just Trade 
to:Sara Jabakhanji
date:21 Apr 2022, 20:54
subject:Re: URGENT CBC Toronto Inquiry – Taybeh Wines at LCBO
mailed-by:palestinejusttrade.ca

Dear Sara

In March 2019, as part of the LCBO’s purchase of Taybeh wine & beer under its Destination program, the LCBO approved the labels with “Product of Palestine.”  However, in late July 2019 after the Taybeh product had arrived and was ready to be released, the LCBO abruptly put it on hold. At that time, the LCBO informed Palestine Just Trade that “due to the recent decision by the Federal Court regarding labeling requirements for wines from this region, we have placed these products on hold.”


In January 2020 after holding the Taybeh products for over seven months, the LCBO said that if stickers saying “West Bank” were placed on the wine and beer products they could be released. Since that time the LCBO Destination program has made two additional purchases of Taybeh’s Nadim wine and of Taybeh beer. The LCBO has continued to require West Bank on the label. The LCBO asked with the most recent shipment that also a blank sticker be placed over the word Palestine in the product title “Taybeh of Palestine.”

Access to information requests show ambiguity about the role of the CFIA, Global Affairs Canada and the LCBO in regard to the abrupt change regarding labeling in the summer of 2019.  Our understanding is the federal government requires country or region of origin for wine, but there is no such requirement for beer. However, it seems the LCBO, perhaps under direction from the CFIA and/or Global Affairs Canada is saying that since Canada does not consider Palestine to be a state, they will not accept Palestine as a region or country of origin.


See more details in the following items from 2019:


https://www.alhaq.org/advocacy/16115.html

https://dimitrilascaris.org/2019/09/03/canadian-food-inspection-agency-defends-oppressors-victimizes-the-oppressed/


Somewhat like the CBC own journalistic standards/language guide, it seems Palestine is a word that is censored.

At present there are five flavours of Taybeh beer and three vintages of Taybeh by Nadim wine available under the LCBO Destination program.

Ashkar, the award-winning wine from the Holyland delivered straight to your doorstep 🍷

Celebrate Christmas with Ashkar (Iqrit), an award-winning wine from the Holy-Land that you never tried before 🍷🎄


Update

The holidays may be over, but a taste from the Holy Land is never out of season.

There is a good supply of all five varieties of Ashkar wine but for some reason the LCBO is being slow to put these on line. If any variety is not available perhaps call the LCBO to ask if they can please replenish in a timely fashion!

There is also some product at a few stores that LCBO sent out earlier when they moved warehouses; so check the links below to see if any at a store near you.


Ashkar was available at two events in 2021. Thanks to the Toronto Palestinian Film Festival and Jokermail Productions for featuring exclusively Ashkar wine!

All over the world, people remember Christmas for the gifts, lights, celebrations and decorations. But in Ashkar winery, the spirit of Christmas comes along with unpleasant feelings as well.

Ashkar Winery is a boutique winery started by Nemi Ashkar, a second generation of the displaced community of Iqrit. Previously an Arab, Christian village, Iqrit was seized and forcefully depopulated in 1948 and later destroyed on Christmas eve in 1951.

Yes, you read correctly, on the night of Christmas…

Ashkar Winery is a boutique winery located on a pastoral hill in Kofor Yasif village. The winery was founded in 2010 as a continuation of a long tradition, started by the family homeland village Iqrit, which is surrounded by dozens of antique presses that were used for making wine from grapes growing in the region.

As Nemi grew up hearing stories about the exile of his family, he sought to establish wines that would capture the very heart and soul of their beloved valley. Thus, Ashkar Winery, now a mother to a series of award-winning wines, was resurrected in 2010 and today is available for you to order and enjoy.

Taybeh IPA is a more flavourful reincarnation of that style with a strong aroma of fresh-picked hops, citrus and herbs

Waiting for Taybeh wine and beer.

Several people have asked who they can contact to express concern about Taybeh wine and beer being held by LCBO.

You can contact the following:

Dr. Siddika Mithani, President, Canadian Food Inspection Agencysiddika.mithani@canada.ca

Jennifer Bell Vice-President | Communications & Corporate Affairs (Liquor Control Board of Ontario): Jennifer.Bell@LCBO.com

We are still waiting for the Release of Taybeh Wine and Beer from the LCBO

agent

Perhaps you would like to ask the LCBO and CFIA why!

Purchased by LCBO, these quality beers and wines from Taybeh arrived in Canada mid-July 2019.

Taybeh Beer (Amber, Dark, Golden, IPA and White)

Nadim Wine by Taybeh (2016 Cabernet Sauvignon, 2015 Merlot, 2017 Syrah, 2018 Sauvignon Blac, and Cabernet Sauvignon 2014 Grand Reserve)

Labels had been pre-approved by the LCBO. The product was made ready through the usual LCBO testing and administrative procedure; and on August 2, 2019 was ready to be released under the LCBO World Destination Program and to those who had made private orders.

Then on August 6, 2019, after the court ruling that wine from Israeli settlements could NOT be labeled as “product of Israel,” the LCBO contacted Palestine Just Trade, the exclusive agent for Taybeh in Canada to indicate the order of Taybeh wine and beer were being put on hold “due to the court ruling.”

Dimitri Lascaris who is acting as legal counsel for Palestine Just Trade wrote about this in a blog, “Canadian Food Inspection Agency Coddles the Oppressors, Victimizes the Oppressed.” Read the full details HERE.

Taybeh is based in Ramallah in the West Bank, which is formally under the control of the Palestinian Authority. None of Taybeh’s products are produced in Israel’s illegal settlements. The court case, which subsequently has been appealed by the Canadian government, has nothing to do with products from Palestine. It is specific to wines from Israeli settlements considered illegal under international law and according to Canadian policy.

Over the last several months, a number of people have contacted the LCBO and CFIA (Canadian Food Inspection Agency), however as far as we have heard, responses have not been received from either agency based on what people have indicated.

At this point, the Taybeh products continues to held by the LCBO, while Palestine Just Trade Inc. waits to hear if the product will be released.

Taybeh is HERE, but on HOLD by LCBO as Directed by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA)

The World Destination Program of the LCBO arranged to include five Nadim wines by Taybeh, and five varieties of Taybeh beer earlier this year. The product arrived in Canada, and was ready for release in early August when notification came that the product was being put on hold.

Earlier this month, just as shipments were ready to go to local LCBO stores for private order pick up, as well as to be put onto the e-commerce channel for offering through the LCBO World Destination Program, the LCBO informed Palestine Just Trade that “due to the recent decision by the Federal Court regarding labeling requirements for wines from this region, we have placed these products on hold.”

Today, August 28, 2019, Dimitri Lascaris, legal counsel for Palestine Just Trade sent a letter to the President of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and copied the LCBO on it. You can read the letter HERE. An accompanying list of alcohol products listed for sale in Canada with the label “product of Israel” that are known to be from Israeli settlements considered illegal by international law can be seen HERE.

In our letter today we indicated to the CFIA with copy to the LCBO that “we are at a loss to understand how the CFIA can continue to allow the sale of wines from territory occupied by Israel to be sold in Canada with false Product of Israel labels even as the LCBO prevents the sale of Taybeh products which are accurately labelled.” We indicated that “the manner in which the CFIA and LCBO are dealing with accurately labelled Taybeh products, and falsely labelled products from Israeli settlements in occupied territory is plainly discriminatory.”

Palestine Just Trade is excited to have joined with Taybeh to have made the first import of product to Canada, and look forward to Nadim wines by Taybeh and Taybeh beers being available for purchase for the first time in Canada very shortly.

Taybeh Brewing Company

Taybeh Brewing Company is a family owned business established in 1994 when David Khoury and Nadim Khoury were inspired by their late father, Canaan David Khoury (1926-2002) to return to their home village of Taybeh and establish the first micro brewery in the Middle East.

The goal was to invest and boost the local economy by introducing new styles of natural hand crafted micro-brewed beers according to the German Purity Law with no preservatives or additives making an excellent Palestinian beer. Nadim Khoury turned his hobby of making homemade beer during college days into a career becoming the master brewer. He is very proud to pass this passion and experience to his daughter, Madees Khoury, the only female brewer in Palestine.

Taybeh Beer is uniquely produced in small batches and hand crafted with state of the art equipment. This assures strict control, Batch to Batch process. Using the best ingredients that money can buy to create a beer so fresh, it can only be called TAYBEH BEER.

Taybeh Winery was founded for one simple reason – to bring truly exceptional wine to the Palestinian market and abroad. We are able to achieve this by partnering with the finest growers in Palestine in order to deliver high quality wines and the highest degree of service to our customers.


Taybeh Winery is a family owned business founded in July 2013 by the Khoury brothers, Nadim and David, and Nadim’s son Canaan Khoury. Following the success of the Khoury family in opening the only brewery in Palestine, Taybeh Brewing Company, Canaan was inspired to return to Palestine after finishing his studies in the United States to open the only boutique winery in Palestine.

Stay tuned for more information about the distinct, quality hand crafted beers and boutique wines!
