This is a potent wine. It is referred to as "Liquid Crack." It is primarily found in the poor inner-city neighborhood liquor/package stores.
This stuff sounds great. I've had no luck finding it in the U.K. Will have to get a friend in the U.S to send some over. Arawn c 00:04, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
When I was in College my roommate used to drink this stuff. I remember some talk about this drink not really being alcohol at all but rather a chemical beverage designed by the United States government to reduce sperm count and marketed for sale in low income areas as a way to control population. I searched a bit to try to validate this information but can't find anything so far. Does anyone else have information on this? --David Marcucci 15:08, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
Probably not. Besides, you shouldn't trust people who drink Cisco--Nog64 23:18, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Created by BuySomeApples (talk). Self-nominated at 22:54, 26 December 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Cisco (wine); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
- New enough (5x expanded around 26 Dec 2023), long enough (~15k), well-sourced, neutral, copyvio-free (Earwig gives score of 10.7% on a single quote, which is properly attributed in the article). It is in presentable form, cited, and quite interesting. QPQ confirmed.
