Abraxas Cafe 11 Opens Some Eyes and Nostrils, and Blows Some Minds, in Chicago

I returned late Sunday from 4 days spent at the Chicago Pipe Show, which, as many of you know, is the largest gathering in the world for pipe collectors and enthusiasts. Several thousand people come to the show every year from 65 countries. As a serious pipe collector and pipe smoker for 40 years, I was there to see treasured old friends and to add to my collection of pipes and vintage tobaccos. I was also sharing Abraxas Cafe 11 with many people, some who love snuff and others who have never tried snuff at all. Even among the snuff fans, they have been mostly limited only to those snuffs available here in the USA. When they sniffed the small jar, their eyes opened wide and they gazed at me with a look of wonder and amazement. All, without exception, said they had never encountered anything like Cafe 11. I told them the same was true for me. When they asked about it, which they inevitably did, I told them that it was one of the very finest snuffs in all the world. Then when I suggested they actually snuff Cafe 11 most of them did so. Heh Heh. I can tell you that they were consistently bedazzled, astonished, and blown away by the power and olfactory beauty of Cafe 11. I had so much fun doing this that you can bet that I will be taking more great snuffs to Chicago next year. I am thinking that I will take more Abraxas types to Chicago, as well as those of Sir Walter Scott, Toque, Bernard, Dholakia, and others. If you go to the Chicago Show next year, I will be easy to find. I will be honored to take a pinch or two with you. Be proud, Nigel @Abraxas. You did good, my friend. :)>- ^:)^
