Review of 'Kiju' Pomegranate Cherry

Kiju -- Pomegranate Cherry
Overall rating: 4/5
Summary: fresh, sharp and distinct flavour; it's medium sweet; and the pomegranate flavour is slightly more distinct than the cherry. I buy this juice on the regular--it's that great. The brand is more progressive than most (socially and environmentally)--more on this below.

Where to buy: Fortinos, Wal-Mart Supercentre #3, Metro, Sobeys #707, Price Chopper #7949, Freshco #9708
