Behind the Brand
Kiepersol is named after the Kiepersol tree, native to South Africa. This tree is depicted on our wine label along with this historical story.
During the Boer War, 1900, British soldiers were running from a lion through an open grass field toward a single-trunk tree shouting, “Kiepersol, Kiepersol, Kiepersol!” The Boers who witnessed the soldiers climb to safety named the tree “ Kiepersol.”
Years later, they realized the soldiers were actually yelling, “ We hope the tree will keep us all.” We have thus adopted the tree as our symbol, because we strive to keep everyone that comes to us in comfort and show each guest the extraordinary pleasures of life.

The KE brand was developed in 1999. It is the actual brand we use on our cattle and we felt by infusing that brand into all of Kiepersol, it would show how we value hard work, dedication, and service.
