Perique

[tbradsim1]

The Martin family has put out a book, softcover, with pictures about the Makeing of Perique for 25$, it is temporally out of stock at Amazon , but I ordered one , I worked with one of the sons at Exxon , I put this information out so you smokers who love Perique might be interested, I have no monetary interest in this, just a curiousaty and would love to see how it's made with pictures, thank you.
