Purdey Event, evening of October 2

[Monty Cristo]

As mentioned elsewhere on these forums, I'll be hosting a special cigar event at the Royal Berkshire Shooting School on behalf of legendary London gunsmith, Purdey, on October 2. Get in NOW if interested as they're zipping out...

JOIN US FOR AN EVENING OF FINE CIGARS, WINE AND CONVERSATION

We are delighted to be able to invite you to our inaugural cigar tasting evening, held at the Royal Berkshire Shooting School on Wednesday 2nd October, hosted by Nick Hammond - the cigar writer and award winning Author of ?Around The World In 80 Cigars?. The evening will see guests enjoy two different cigars, starting with a Por Larranaga Petit Corona that has been carefully paired with a suitable whisky. Set against this backdrop, Nick will provide an informal and enlightening talk covering the basics of cigars and their enjoyment and then, while sharing anecdotes from his book, including how he dived with Great White Sharks off South Africa, trekked through the rainforests of Borneo, enjoyed a tug of war with a Nile Crocodile in the Limpopo River, went partridge shooting in the Scottish Highlands and sailed high above the vineyards of Cognac in a hot air balloon?we will enjoy a bolder Montecristo No.2, which will be served with a robust red wine. As this is an intimate evening, there are a very limited number of spaces available. Tickets are priced at ?95.00 per person. For further details about the evening, or to book your place, please contact Wendy on 01491 672907.
