flipflop wines joins the family this
year as the Official Wine Sponsor of
Fantasy Fest 2012. Fantasy Fest couldn’t
have a more aptly named wine sponsor
that embodies the casual carefree yet
elegant lifestyle of Key West. At flipflop
wines they have embraced the movement
towards individualistic expression,
instead of manufacturing wines into
a cookie cutter style. Their goal is to
craft expressive well-balanced wines
that evoke just what the grapes inside
intended.
In keeping with Key West’s motto “One
Human Family” a portion of the proceeds
from the sale for flipflop wines benefits
Soles4Souls, the international shoe
charity dedicated to providing footwear to
those in need.
Be sure to look for the flipflop team
on Friday, Oct. 26th at the Fantasy Fest
Street Fair for a taste of their delicious
wines.

of Old Town, the romance of Hemingway
and the calm, laid-back attitude of island
life, using only the purest, highest-quality
fruit, floral or earthy fragrances, natural
antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, essential
emollients, and Aloe vera that’s clinically
proven to be the purest and most natural
