Kinnie

ryanstarr

Hey all .. Sorry as this may be an impossible subject for many of you . But it seems we all enjoy looking around for good bargains and I am wanting to know whether anybody on the lookout come across a product named Kinnie ? Its a Maltese soft drink. Being Maltese I love it and miss it a lot. It is possible to buy from the Maltese Culture Movement in london but theres a minimum of 48 cans that costs £30 then delivery is a further £14. so it works out close to £1 a can which is quite hefty.
all help appreciated

Kinnie is my favourite drink, but I can only have it when I holiday in Malta, I havent ever seen it for sale in Englad I am afraid.

Damn Real Shame .. Its a beautiful drink and a well needed alternative to the usual soft drinks on sale

You could try asking them:

"Kinnie is now available in an ever increasing number of countries. Contact us for more information."

I did contact them and they told me its only available what they know off from the Maltese Culture Movement . BUT. they did say that they sold Kinnie to some UK cash and carries so im guessing somewhere in britain they have Kinnie. God knows where though.

thanks still kinda pricey for them all . works out just under £1 a can for all of them except for the ebay one which works out over £1 a can

Yep, still not cheap, but cheaper than MCM. I'm surprised at their prices.

I would love to know where to buy Kinnie, my Dad (Maltese) loves it. If i could get him a case for fathers day that would be excellent. I too have looked everywhere and could only find maltese movement, but the shipping is a fortune!

ryanstarr

I have rung the Maltese Culture Movement and they are willing to let people pick it up but unless you live in London where the offices are that isnt much use. But if you are in London that makes it £30 for 48 cans which is decent

It seems that there is a Facebook group to petition Sainsburys to stock it, you might want to sign it and then encourage your Maltese friends to sign it also. You never know, it might work if enough people petition for it!

Link to FB petition.

ETA...i just tried signing the petition and got an error message, still, you could join the FB group and email Sainsburys yourself imploring them to stock your fave drink!
