My son was in Boston last weekend during the blizzard. He stopped by Peretti's and brought home the above blends for me. Three blends I've never tried. Looking forward to it, especially the Dorchester.

That's a good son. If I was you, I'd keep him. Does he smoke a pipe too?

Thanks.
Yep, all three of our kids are keepers. Only the oldest son smokes cigars and pipes...he'll be attending the CPS with me in May.

How did he choose the blends? Did u ask for them specifically, or even at all?

He said there was an older man there that recommended these blends. These are blends my son has never smoked too. The only Peretti's we've smoked is the Thanksgiving blend.

No, I didn't ask my son to bring anything home. I just mentioned to him that if he had time, stop by Peretti's.

Never had Dorchester?
Among the Esoterica VaPers I think I prefer Dunbar, but the D-Chester is a fun smoke. There's a touch of sweetness that the Dunbar doesn't have. Has a fairly healthy pinch of perique too.

My favorite shop. My favorite city. Enjoy Tashkent, I find it truly unique among Latakia blends.

Yup, Tashkent is in my top 5 tobaccos. Royal and Omega are pretty good too.

The most important thing is he was thinking of you. Awesome.

Yep, he's 38 and still thinks about dad. Feels good.

Tashkent is especially awesome!

All winners! Tashkent is a very strong oriental, and Dorchester is one of my favorites of the Esoterica line, an aromatic Va/Per.

You raised him right…still thinks bout da old man. ? I’ve sampled Tashkent a few times…I remember it being a tasty bold oriental blend. The Dorchester is absolutely delicious and I always have some & along with Dunbar. ️
