One moonlit night in May 1867, Samuel Zenas Ammen and Jo Lane Stern, who had become fast friends, were taking a walk off campus. This particular evening, they were discussing the future of their young fraternity. Pausing along the way, that sat on the steps of Whites General Store, on the corner of Lexingtons Main and Nelson Streets. There, they seriously contemplated the viability of Kappa Alpha and whether or not they should continue the chapter, asking the pivotal question, Shall we let the Lodge die? Ammen well-remembered that conversation and later recalled, The outcome was a decision to keep up the fight, and from that time on our prospects improved. Without that crucial decision, we would not be able to raise a glass of Whites General Cuve Blanctherefore, celebrate!

We introduce to you Whites General. This elegant white wine blend is alluring and complex. The nose is like a bouquet of flowers and jumps from the glass with ripe lemon, white peach and orange blossom followed by notes of toast and white pepper. On the tongue, lemon bursts forward with pineapple and other tropical fruit, with undertones of vanilla. The finish is bright and zingy and mellows with vanilla and subtle spices in its length.
