You just never know...

A couple of weeks ago, I got a call from a gentleman living on the Peninsula. He was looking for some hard to find Dunhill lighter flints. After being directed to us, he showed up the next day with 2 lighters that had not only sentimental value, but a great story behind them. It turns out the Dunhills were from the early 190o's and manufactured for the Asian market. He inherited them from his great Grandfather and one of these lighters was given to him by none other than Chang Hai Shek! Our guest was delighted to discover that we had not only the flints he was looking for, but the wicks as well. One of the big reasons I enjoy my time here is the relationships that I build with people and the many friendships that are developed over a great cigar and a fine glass of wine. Sharing stories and spending quality time together helps make life richer!
