This should be a good engaged to smoke one of the really good cigars. Padron Series 1926 No.9 is a Nicaraguan cigar for the big occasions. Powerful and complex with wonderful aromas of spices, hay, fruits and dark chocolate. Was named this year's cigar in the cigar aficionado in 2007, where they gave it 97 points. This cigar is great for a young nebbiolobasert red wine (recommended by Augusto Cigar).

Now it has happened so much that we I do not quite know where to begin. Therefore, it is a good old-fashioned lit:

1. NM coffee:
Thomas and Kevin went to Oslo to participate in, respectively, making coffee and tea making. It was a very inspired and informative tour, where Thomas came home with a 3rd place and Kevin with a 16th place. It must be mentioned that Kevin has only worked for half a year of coffee. That he at all qualified for the semi-finals in Oslo thereof struck many seasoned bari leftovers is a great presentation that bodes well for the coming year and for those of discerning customers are on the bench.

2. Tirsdagscuppingene: (*Tuesday Cupping - didn't translate for some reason)
Here we have faithfully (except Tuesday) implemented fun and educational tastings for our customers. It is a pleasure to see how many people will benefit from this. I hope that many more have the ability and desire to come. Next cupping is Tuesday at 17.00 on the bench and it is as always, free.

3. New cigars:
Away from London, we had new cigars. Previously we had a simple choice, ala a bad tax-free. Now we are happy to have several exciting cigars:

Don Pepin Garcia Blue Invictus (Nicaragua)
Tatuaje Havana VI angeles (Nicaragua)
Padron 1926 Series No.9 (Nicaraguans)
Ramon Allon Specially Selected (cuba)
El Rey Del Mundo Choix Supreme (cuba)
Romeo Y Julietta Hermoso No.2 EL 2004 (cuba)

Several of cigars is saved!

And--I've stood in front of this wheel of women in Sandnes, near the train station & wondered if it was made of wood for one thing & who created it for another - am happy to read now, & know, it's been done by a woman...as well not just any woman artist, but the one who also created the moving caravan art installation called "Camping Woman" for the 2008 Stavanger European Capital of Culture
