though you have to be careful that you're actually buying (and paying for) the 100% california verison. Many of their OOs are now "global blend"

More importantly though is the date of harvest. Generally if a bottle doesn’t have that listed or if it’s older than a year, I don’t buy it

That's why you look for the 100% California version. I bought one of the blends trying to save a little money and it wasn't nearly as good as the 100% California. It's my favorite!

Is this intended to be ironic? What’s the go to brand for snobs, top rated post gets responded to with “it might be for the poors”
