C&D Safe Haven in a 2009 Boswell, bent egg shape.
It's truly great especially when it help enrich knowledge and smoking experience, I wish I could be there :lol:JimInks":ny2kpd1y said:Home and exhausted after a long road, but I had a great day. M'lady and I went Richmond, Va., and were given a two hour personal tour of the Sutliff factory today, and they also gifted me a fair amount of tobaccos. The people there couldn't possibly have been nicer to us, and I learned a great deal about the company, and how tobacco is processed. It was endlessly fascinating. When they opened the doors to processing section, I was hit with the wonderful smell of latakia! It only got better from there on, seeing the steps used to bag and/or tin tobaccos from beginning to end. The knowledge and passion for tobaccos was such a great thing to witness. Wish I had owned a video camera to record it.
And you get to smoke there, too! I smoked Old Dark Fired, Edward G. Robinson, and Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match while I was there. Again, I had a wonderful time with very good people who were generous with their time during a work day. It was one great day!
Are we to expect a detailed account of the tour complete with FANTASTIC pics? Sounds like fun !! I'm having some more Royal yacht in one of mt Charatan Special Pots .JimInks":gvtro0tf said:Home and exhausted after a long road, but I had a great day.

Not sure when I'll get to do that. I have tough deadlines coming up, and I'm very tired from the almost 8 hours on the road. I'll see what I can do, though I'm sure hoping to get some sleep tonight. Only slept an hour and a half before starting my day, and can barely manage to smoke at the moment.monbla256":oy2z4q7a said:Are we to expect a detailed account of the tour complete with FANTASTIC pics?

No hurry, just when you can get around to it as I'm sure it would be interestingJimInks":d0ycny2j said:Not sure when I'll get to do that.
