Over the past forty eight hours, several Belgians, Dutchmen, and Germans have cruised in and read this blog.
Which is not entirely surprising - I already knew that they could read - but what they have been scoping out is rather unusual.
These three posts:
PIPE TOBACCO IN GENERAL
http://atthebackofthehill.blogspot.com/2010/02/tobacco-companies-tobacco-blends.html
Written in early 2010, it details several different blending houses, and mentions what has happened to their products.
BALKAN SOBRANIE MIXTURE AS IT ONCE WAS
http://atthebackofthehill.blogspot.com/2007/10/balkan-sobranie-original-mixture.html
A long disquisition from 2007 about a favoured smoke. Perhaps not the best thing I've written, and readers who aren't fond of pipe tobacco will find it quite as boring as the post mentioned above.
BALKAN SOBRANIE MIXTURE MADE AGAIN
http://atthebackofthehill.blogspot.com/2011/10/balkan-sobranie-2011-arango-and.html
In 2011 Arango Cigar Co. arranged with Germain and Son in the British Channel Islands to reproduce the famous blend.
While these and other tobacco-related posts bore the living daylights out of my target audience, that being primarily fresh-faced young ladies with dark wicked eyes living in the northeastern part of San Francisco who are single and curious about badgers, rabbinic students in places like New York with quirky minds and linguistic bents, booksellers, food mavens, and people with Judaic, Sinitic, and Netherlandic interests, friends, or heritages, and everyone that happily associates with any of these types, I also gladly cater to the tobacco fiends.
So, like Joel Grey as the oozing master of ceremonies in the musical Cabaret, I bid you welkom, willkommen, bienvenue.
Please imagine me singing that.
I can't hold a tune in real life, but in your imagination anything is possible.
