An afternoon well spent.

[El Presidente]

Mike, Dana, Rob, Yiorgos and I smoked one of these marvelous pre embargo marevas from the 1940's this afternoon. 

There is always a chance that they had expired but these marevas were lovely and complex. Under medium bodied they were smooth as silk with a beautiful interplay of nuts, black tea and sweet spices. 

Dana has been smoking cigars for a week......... 

Many thanks to Yiorgos and Rob for their immense generosity and friendship

Ah, afternoons in Fox’s keep are the best. Cheers you guys! Tell Mike and Dana not to rush back. Thunderstorms through Monday...

They are in the bar downstairs downing a Guinness before we head to dinner.  I will let them know

Ah, a pint of Guinness... Have you been to Burdock’s for fish and chips? If you haven’t, you aren’t drinking enough. Please ask Mike and Dana when they are coming back and do they need a ride?

Kelly and I were also fortunate to spend an afternoon at James Fox with Yiorgios, Rob and Andy the Wednesday before last. Smoked a very generously offered Punch Nectares No.5 Ninfas from the JJ Fox Exclusive Selection.

Yiorgos was kind enough to show us some rare, old and unique boxes of cigars. Did you see the Visible Inmensos?

A memorable day indeed!

Just missed you by a day! Yiorgos was kind enough to share one of these when I stopped in for a 5 hour layover in Dublin yesterday morning.  What a cigar.
