Enduring culture survives because it carries meaning, continuity, and gratitude. Wine belongs to that older, steadier tradition. It’s not an indulgence to defend nor a habit to excuse; it’s a conversation between land, season, culinary practice, regionality, and culture.

The Estate Merlot Vineyard at Siboney Cellars Inflorescence: The pre-flowering stage emerging from Bud Caps protecting the flowers fall away to reveal hidden beauty The “flower” takes form as delicate fronds surrounding a tiny green berry Not hard to imagine a grape cluster from this bouquet! We love to see the size and health of these bouquets across the vineyard! Learning to Understand the Estate Vineyard…

Just got this new gadget. It’s called a “radio”. Once you plug it in, you have to master a rotary dial to “tune in” stations already broadcasting content. It’s easy don’t worry. Just rotate the dial and the needle points to different numbers on two different sources. They call those AM and FM so you do have that as a learning curve.

Background: Turns out there are “radio waves” all around us and this Victrola has a little wire coming out the back that can magically intercept them and direct the passing signal to speakers. It When you find something interesting it has another feature — you can make it louder by turning a different rotary switch. I just got up from my chair and tried it, in true FAFO spirit. Works great!

This is just fantastic and I felt compelled to bring it to your attention.

No streaming required. No WiFi or subscriptions needed. No service outages from local internet providers.

Amazing. Hope it catches on.

Oh there’s also something called a “Bluetooth” switch that somehow manages to receive and play music you might have on your phone.

Will wonders ever cease.

Go Victrola!!

Our Premium Brand for this Release #11: Micallef Cigars - Esteli, Nicaragua

We are thrilled to announce the return of Micallef Cigars to Siboney for our Premium feature. The Micallef Cigar company is, perhaps, new to many. We featured one Micallef in August 2024, and it was so highly regarded we knew we would have them back for the full featured premium spotlight in a future release. With the introduction of their new “color” series, the timing is perfect for the return and presentation of this fantastic boutique cigar producer. ��The founder, Mr. Al Micallef of Weatherford Texas, has entrepreneurial DNA in his roots. In 2016, as an avid Cigar Lover, he took the next step and partnered with a venerable family in the tobacco business dating back to 1934 in Cuba. The Gomez-Sanchez family has roots in Pinar del Rio. With a history including Partagas and H. Upmann, and a fully operational factory in Esteli, Nicaragua, the family heritage of growing tobacco, hand-crafting vitolas, and creating an authentic brand are all essential attributes of Micallef Cigars.

We have a fantastic day on tap.

First steps of Spring are emerging at @siboneycellars! Texas Mountain Laurel and Redbud lead the way, and the overseed grass - dormant for the winter - was finally activated by recent rains.

Won’t be long for the vineyard to emerge. Just you wait!

Cigar Talk:
We get questions about Cuba. Whats happening in Cuba. When can we travel to Cuba. When can we organize a trip to Cuba….

We are not going to Cuba. You are not going to Cuba. Not for a while yet…

Update: “In late January, the Financial Times reported that Cuba had less than a single month’s worth of oil in reserve. Already, the country’s energy stockpiles appear to be dwindling. Havana informed international air carriers this week, for example, that it will no longer be able to refuel commercial jets on Cuban tarmacs.”

Whatever is happening is going to take time. Whether the Cuban government can twist out of this submission hold, or tap out, remains to be seen. They never have tapped out in 66 years.

Even though humanitarian aid continues, be certain that the situation is quite seriously deteriorating. Obviously it has already been, and will continue to be very hard on the Cuban people. A very severe test. They are marching in Havana. The prospect of Freedom brings forth courage like nothing else. Abrazos to all
