(The cup-style cracker is not well-suited to cracking pecans, which must be cracked end-on-end, and is not strong enough to crack macadamias BUT it has been...

We don't use natural cork to close our bottles due to the unsustainable harvesting of cork and the loss of wine in storage due to cork failure or infection....
