Hi, my name's Bloofington, and I'm a sinner. . . .

a very well built and disciplined, but nevertheless gluttonous pig. A piggity, piggity, snorkity porkity leetle babee peeg.

I received a package yesterday from our very own Castle Crest, as had been promised to me, but still not necessarily deserved. Hey, they started telling me to do comedy when I was about 14. I chickened out, but now I do it on the internet, and people track me down to send me coffee and cigars.

:dunno: :duh: :dunno: :duh: :dunno: :duh:

:duh: :duh: :duh:

Eager anticipation gripped me as I got out a knife with the box on the bar in the basement den. I could smell the artistry. Inside I found four of the cutest little paper bags with cellophane windows and black marker pen on the brown paper telling of the coffees' origin. Rwandan (WOW!!! :shock: ), Sumatran (one of my favorites!!! ), Indian Mysore (Desperately Seeking Mysore since the mid-90's), and . . .

JAMAICAN BLUE MOUNTAIN PEABERRY!!!

Don't ask, don't tell. :wink:

And, what's in that other bag??

:dunno:

Gack, wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze, gassssppppp, . . .

A 5 1/2 X 49 PARTAGAS 150!!! That's the cigar with the mysterious "found in a warehouse in Madrid" wrapper from the "1977 crop!!!!!" It also has the price tag of a fully equipped, brand new F-18A fighter jet.

So, why is Bloofington a sinner, a gluttonous piggity???

Well, because I started with the Jamaican Blue Mountain. So delicious, just like Kaldi's, some of the best, perhaps equal to Kaldi's, the best Jamaican Blue Mountain I've ever had.

Four beautiful little bags of coffee, each containing 4.75 to 5.25 ounces of coffee, 1.25 pounds, about two weeks worth of international bliss. Heck, I didn't even know they had anything but tragedy in Rwanda, I'm REALLY looking forward to trying that coffee.

Thank you so much, Castle Crest, and God bless you forever. I'm off for some R&R.

About to have the Rwandan right now, and an interesting story about the Jamaican. Grown on the property of a GREAT admirer of the 42nd President!!! I read the stuff under the rolled up part when I opened the bags. Still have yet to touch the bags of Sumatran and Mysore, but looking very much forward to it.

The cigar is going to sit until football season, and be smoked during a very special game. Oh wait, the Jets don't play special games. Okay, maybe in a few days when they run the men's 100 meter dash final. :dunno:

God bless you, and thank you again. Gotta get upstairs and pour that Rwandan coffee!!! It smelled incredible after the grinding, like few coffees I've ever ground. I always sniff before and after grinding the beans.
