Back in the good old days A.Zavvos was providing briar even to Dunhill (England-Denmark-Germany etc have no briar), also another world provider was Amadeus.
The term ''Philoxenia" means ''friendly with a Ksenos'' (a man from different place), we are always friendly and kindly if you show respect to our religion, flag and ethics. We will help you no matter who you are and we will show tolerance but if you show us a ''bravado'' attitude-get drunk-start braking things and slander us then no one will show pity on you.
The saddest thing is that we don't have politicians to ''educate'' the other countries or correct them if they say something wrong about us, there is no Patriotic policy so any moron can start to defame us or spread lies about our history and no one answer to him. This attitude after some decades turns back to us, people are thinking that we are sitting all day, we drink Ouzo and dance, taking unemployment benefits etc and any one can print a book with accusations or say that Greeks are from albania or skopje or there is no ancient Greek language and there is no answer from the Greek state.
You know very well that if you say something similar about Israel then the whole world (even the UN secretary) will turn against you.

As for the topic, i have ordered another metal tube for single cigar, fancy look but i did it in purpose, when arrives i will explain why i choose these colours.
I have a small ''tupperdor'' with 5 cigars inside, unfortunately i have too many pipes and tobacco tins so i can not make a ''collection'' of cigars at that time.
