I thought his cigars were long gone, but apparently Alec Bradley has purchased the brand and will begin to place them in shpos again.

Quote from text on the front page of his website (at least as of the time I'm writing this, it might get corrected later):

Lars Tetens is a man of so many talents he has been dubbed by his admirers as a contemporary Leonardo Da Vinci. People ranging from high-profile celebrities to politicians and presidents of Fortune 500 companies have retained him as there consultant on many varying projects, and are among his abundant admirers.

Yes, he is so amazingly brilliant and totally awesome that he doesn't know how homophones work, something that's taught in elementary school English class! 😛

that stuff just jumps off the page.

at least he has always had his ego in check.

I recall smoking one or two of his offerings earlier in the century, I seem to think he was on the scene with his magical South American/Amazon secret blends before Jonathan Drew reinvented the genre...

possible?

It's "their consultant". When you instead use "there consultant", people wince.

They sound the same, but one is correct and the other is horribly incorrect, especially in a business setting, and ESPECIALLY when ironically appearing in a paragraph of douchey, self-congratulatory "look how awesome I am!" text.

Hilarious!

They were pretty much like Acid cigars, but much more expensive, if I remember right. It's been a long time.

And no, I'm not a fan of infused cigars, but to each their own.

By the way, I did get the "you're faves" irony humor you slipped in there, very nice!

when looking at his stuff and site, it felt as if I had stumbled into a loft in a converted manufacturing site in NYC owned by Andy Warhol.

and that was a very uncomfortable feeling for me...like being paranoid while tripping.

I do recall DMV posting about him. good or bad, don't remember.

I clicked on LT's music on the site...I think my brain pan took a subliminal message. I could not shake the urge to send a donation to the cult.
