L. J. Peretti Tashkent
L. J. Peretti Century
Esoterica Dorchester

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.

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.

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. ☕
