Thanks for posting! It is always good to expand one's tobacco knowledge!

Thanks for the video post. I hadn't seen it before, although Percy Martin has become a legend in the history of Perique. Here's a link to PipesMagazine.com's coverage of Curtis Hymel's 50th anniversary working in the Perique industry. There is also an internal link to the PM.com article coincidentally entitled The Mystique of Perique; and a secondary link to "The exclusive video of the unveiling of the New Vintage Decade Series Perique Tobacco." A most interesting video of a 10 yr. old barrel of Perique being opened for the first time.
