The Hunt for The Fine White Wine Man

UKUWELA, SRI LANKA: Every since I randomly ran into the genius that is Sri Lanka's Fine White Wine Man on a run to the local liquor store 4 years ago, I've dreamt of running into him again, to actually sit down for a drink this time. I planned on visiting him again 3 years ago but world events took a turn for the worse. Now, a full 4 years since I first saw him, Sri Lanka has finally opened again and you can roam around freely from state to state without wearing mandatory excess garments over your face. Freedom at last! So upon touchdown in Colombo, Sri Lanka's capital, I immediately got my hands on a motorbike, so I could journey up to Ukuwela where the last sighting of the fine white wine man occured some 3 years ago. Does he still live there? Is he still into white wine? Is the wine store even still there?
