I went in there about 30 yrs ago, I was a motorcycle dispatch rider , my face was covered in filth and I looked like a bag of shit after a long days work, I went to buy 3 cigars as a few friends were returning to Australia, they cost about £30-35, I went to pay with a credit card but was informed their machine was down, I didn't have cash on me and it was close to 5pm on a Friday, so I was stuck.....The sales assistant calmly said to take the cigars and drop the money in on Monday... They got their money at 10am Monday morning.

I'm not sure why, but I find such beauty in this story. a few kind, well-dressed gentlemen at my local cigar bar recently caught me admiring the $50 Davidoff. I had never had a Davidoff before. They insisted that I try the beautifully constructed cigar, and I instructed them to take a look at me and ask themselves "does this guy deserve a stick with that kind of pricetag?" The two gentlemen immediately took the stick down from the top shelf, walked over to the counter, split the cost between them & insisted that I sit down and enjoy it with them. Not sure what I did to deserve such kindness

In this context "Oriental" means "eastern" as oppose to "Occedental" which would convey "western". So, our manners in Europe and the western hemisphere can be called "western manners" and anything, generaly, from the Near-east to, say, Japan would be "eastern mannerisms". Hope this helps.

I was in the Davidoff shop in London in the 1990's and asked for some Havana cigars at a time when Davidoff had already stopped production in Cuba. After a five minute conversation with the clerk, he finally told me that he had just obtained a limited supply of Davidoff Havanas from an estate sale; and opened up a locked drawer to reveal a small stash. I bought a box. Those were some of the last Davidoff Havanas ever smoked on the face of the earth.

I have had the pleasure to have sat in that same chair one day in 2019. It was a privilege sharing one of my favourite Robusto Vitolas - the Ramon Allones Specially Selected cigar with Edward Sahakian. It was 1 hour of laughter, wisdom and enjoyment accompanied by A friend of Mr Sahakian's from across the pond. In my world dominated by investment, it was a pleasure to not have to invest and think about the future. But to simply, and rather beautifully waste the present. Thank you to Kirby for taking the time to make these videos and to both Eddie and Edward. They are truly, in every sense of the phrase, the last of a dying breed.
