    Kopp to Handle "Worldwide Distribution" of HU Tobaccos

    Just got some more Soraya delivered, which may be my number one "Oriental" blend at the moment. Nebari is another I just got and tried - very good. It has a light touch of cocoa powder on top of the Virginia/burley/oriental blend. When sipped I get mostly very floral orientals. When pulled...

    Mhm, baristas demanding a living wage. Second time a local chain of coffee shops has had baristas strike in the past 15 months or so. First it was Heine Bros., now it's Sunergos. I'm generally always on the side of workers striking. Concerning the baristas/service industry, it's not a black &...

    I was reluctant to try this one but so far, a couple bowls in, I'm really enjoying it. G&H Best Brown no.2 in the BST full bent chimney.

    Fox Campanile in the Peterson Irish Harp 128. Walking to get coffee. My usual shop is on strike, so I'm taking a longer walk to another shop that I like better anyway.
