Sedgwick's toasts all South Africans this Heritage DaY

Toast the traditions that make South Africa and its people so incredibly unique this National Heritage Day (24 September) and share the warmth, the love and the moment with one of the country’s most iconic brands, Sedgwick’s Original Old Brown.

Whether you are huddled around the braai with your closest friends, or hosting a festive family get-together, Sedgwick’s will certainly be great company. Add it as a dash to your salad dressing, marinade or sauce for your steak or serve it as a refreshing drink with lemonade or ginger ale over ice. 

Captain James Sedgwick and his legacy of Sedgwick's Original Old Brown is imbedded in the heritage of South Africa. After braving the seas with his tea-trading clipper called Undine, he fell in love with South Africa and opened his very own tavern in Cape Town, known as The Captain's Room, in 1853. There he lured crowds with his tales of the high seas. His sons continued the business he started and in 1916 launched South Africa’s favourite fortified wine. Today, his charisma and sense of adventure is captured in each bottle of Sedgwick's Original Old Brown.

Sedgwick’s Original Old Brown is available from supermarkets and liquor outlets nationwide for about R28 per 750ml bottle.
