World Buckfast Day is celebrated on May 9 and is dedicated to Buckfast Tonic Wine, a caffeinated wine that originated from Buckfast Abbey in England. This unique beverage contains as much caffeine as eight cans of cola and has become popular in Scotland, particularly in Glasgow. The day is marked by various celebrations, including events at pubs across Scotland and other locations worldwide, such as Sydney, Dublin, and Ayia Napa. Participants often try Buckfast for the first time, visit local liquor stores, or even travel to Scotland to experience the culture associated with the drink. The celebration includes enjoying Scottish traditions, such as whiskey tastings and listening to bagpipers. Despite its popularity, Buckfast has faced controversy due to its association with anti-social behavior and calls for regulation of caffeine in alcoholic beverages.
