Advertising & Affiliate Disclosure

Ancient Vino is a small, independently run publication about the history and living traditions of rakia-making. Keeping it running costs money, so this page explains, plainly, how the site is supported.

Advertising

This site may display advertisements served through Google AdSense and similar networks. These networks may use cookies to show ads that are more relevant to you, based on your browsing activity. We don’t control which specific ads are shown. See our Privacy Policy for how to manage ad personalization.

Affiliate Links

When we mention a specific rakia, producer, or retailer, some of those links may be affiliate links. If you click through and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission — at no additional cost to you. This is standard practice for independent publications and is disclosed here, as required by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s guidance on affiliate marketing.

Editorial Independence

Advertising and affiliate income never determines which countries, grapes, or producers we cover. Every region on this site was chosen for its history, not for a commercial relationship — and most of the rakias we write about, particularly the rarer ones, aren’t available through any affiliate program at all.
