    Default Panacea

    Hey this interesting angle slipped my mind before: The guys at Flatbed Cigars have partnered up with a fellow in Richmond Virginia area who has organized what is called the Virginia Wine and Cigar Trail. Look it up on line if you live in VA. It's a series of wineries where he has left a selection of Panacea cigars, each variety of cigar paired with a certain wine from there. So you go to the winery, score a bottle and a stick, sit at a piazza table overlooking a sunny vineyard, smoke, and drink. What a great idea. Vineyards often have live music on a weekend to boot.

    The same guy also tours from one street fair to another selling his cigars. We ran into him at Rock Hall Merryland. The air was redolent, so we followed our noses, and there was his booth. Does one heck of a land office business that way too.

    These are all rolled overseas. But as I say, the Green Label is PA Broadleaf, and tastes it. Interesting marketting idea, eh?
    Unmitigated risk aversion is the new Puritanism; complete with witch hunts funny outfits and humorless preachers thundering doom. The Deity is Safety; Satan is a Lawyer; but the object is the same: to suck the life out of life and tell you how to live it.

    Interesting? Uhhh.... Let's' just say it's hardly unique.
