Vintage Laos

We tend to be cynical and skeptical. I see people talking about he SQ oils with sarcasm and cynicism. I get it. 

Problem is, you don’t smell the jasmine in the middle of the garden…

We all witnessed the opening of the Royal treasury in real-time, and for many it felt… unreal. Made up, even. As with artists whose works only achieve acclaim posthumously, many will only realize what happened after the fact. 

While the cynicism may come off smart to those who don’t know better, it makes them look foolish to those who do.

The guys in Oman sure have a good laugh at their expense. The Chinese and Bangkok big shots who, from the get-go, pounced with might and main at wood we all thought we’d never see again are better off when people believe it’s all made up because… guess what? They have that wood in hand, while the foolhardy still go around telling people it’s just a story.

It’s like someone unearthed an archaeological site, found the rarest artifacts and jewels, and people who never visited the site tell each other it doesn’t exist.

To the cynics, show me Laos wood like this:
