Bring a piece of Guelph’s beverage-making history into your home with this handcrafted Reinhart’s Beverages Circa Candle.
This distinctive candle reproduces a vintage glass beverage bottle embossed with “Reinhart’s Beverages – Guelph, Ont.”
Albert J. Reinhart established the business in Guelph in 1908 after purchasing the former Reed Brothers beverage operation. Originally known as Royal City Mineral Water Works, the company became Reinhart’s Beverages and continued operating until March 1967. Ginger beer was one of its principal products, first sold in stoneware bottles and later in Canadian-made glass bottles.
Hand-poured in Sudbury, Ontario, using pure, micro-filtered Canadian beeswax sourced from small Canadian beekeepers. It burns cleanly with a warm golden glow and the naturally light honey aroma of genuine beeswax. No added fragrance and no paraffin.
With its impressive nine-inch height and burn time of more than 80 hours, this is a substantial decorative candle offering exceptional value and authentic Canadian character.
