Whenever my family went on holiday to Dartmoor when I was little, parents would always take us to church at Buckfast Abbey if we were there on a Sunday.

Always thought it was just for the nice architecture and the gardens, but maybe they had another motive....

But they were all of them deceived, for another motive was had. In the land of Dartmoor, in the rains of Buckfast Abbey, the Dark Monks forged in secret a Tonic Wine. And into this Wine they poured their cruelty, their malice and their will to dominate all life.
