    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Very nice afternoon, not quite so hot, so I enjoyed a bowl of Dunhill Aperitif in the Ries Blackruf. : )

    Brightening the afternoon even more was a visit from the mail carrier with a 7.5" long Boswell Canadian. I am really appreciating this Gentleman's work. World class custom work at very competitive prices. I think the break in process must begin tomorrow.

    Started the day with Boswell's Premium Burley in the 1981 Boswell. This is a great tobacco and will be a keeper.

    This afternoon I enjoyed some Tsuge Fujin: The Wind God in the Castello. I like how these Tsuge god blends deliver on their promises. This wind god blend says "You will be whisked away on clouds of heavenly Latakia and specially processed dark fired tobacco. Blended and balanced with premium bright Virginias and exotic orientals". : )
