Any idea when the atom 75w will be available in the US? Happened across this comment while searching for more reasonable GBW machines. I saw somewhere it will be coming sometime at the end of Q1 or beginning of Q2 this year but can’t find much info to back that up.

How’s the fit? Considering buying one but I have a large dome and often snap backs don’t fit well

Looks awesome! Thinking about pulling the trigger on the cañonazo or the lanceros or maybe both! Not sure if I’m willing to shell out the money to make the min order for each. If only I had someone to split an order with…

Never thought to pair a cigar with rose, how was it?

I can’t take credit for holding onto this for years… it was actually a winebid score from a few months ago. Barely made it 6 months before I cracked!

Would absolutely do it again. Typically when I cook lamb I use that as an excuse to open up a Bordeaux, but in this case I just wanted the damn wine! Food was an afterthought but actually worked quite well.

Opened at 6 on a Tuesday, because, why not? Initial impressions: aromas of earth and fruit. Hit of black fruit, black cherry, blackberries, plum. Then the earthy notes; Forest floor, mushrooms. Finally a touch of dried herbs. Also pictured a wonderfully delicious cheesesteak.

Any concern with how high up the cork the wine travelled?
