Somehow, I have been roped into visiting a local Vanuatan school today.  What in hell do I have in common with local kids? The last time I did this was after drinking with Hamlet at the Nacional hotel in Havana until 7am. He insisted I go back to his house and explain to his then wife, that the session was all my fault. Jesus, I can still remember knocking on the door…..hearing the swearing …..the reaching for the pots/pans and knife…..the door opened and there she was with a full face of fury that changed abruptly when she saw me ….Hamlet tail between his legs behind…the face changed to disdain.

Coffee was served and our punishment was to take Hamelito (7 at the time) to school.  We were forced to take a taxi as we weren’t at out best. How hard could this be?.....Let me tell you. I was introduced to the teacher…and then the principal. I was then convinced to give a talk to the school about Australia …in Spanish…and answer all questions. It was now 9am. I got out of there at 10:30am.

After that day/night Hamlet went dry for two years. I was too traumatised to do the same.

Have a cracking day!

I think we have the cheapest Upmann Magnum 54’s in the world. Either we have mispriced them or PCC has. You shouldn’t care either way.

I was saying on FOH zoom yesterday that my 2023 Upmann 54’s are as close to the Upmann 2 flavour profile as I can find. There is no greater compliment I could give.

Love them in 10’s! There are plenty of fans and for good reason.

Cream, cake, shortbread, mezzo espresso, burnt sugar nuances, starts mid bodied (but be prepared), smooth.

Perfect coffee and/or fortified companion.
