Hello, world!
My name is George Davis, and I’m absolutely thrilled to welcome you to my blog! I’ve been affectionately called the ‘Tobacco Sommelier’ throughout my 20-year career in the industry, and I must say, the title fits perfectly. I am passionate about my work and enjoy delving into the intricacies of the tobacco world each day.
I began my journey in the tobacco industry with the renowned British American Tobacco, where I served as a product quality manager. In that role, I spent many long hours in tobacco fields, production facilities, and labs, ensuring our products lived up to the high standards we set for ourselves. From there, I joined Philip Morris International as a senior supply chain executive, overseeing the movement of millions of tobacco products worldwide.
My experiences have afforded me the chance to explore the incredible diversity within the tobacco industry. I’ve watched sunrises over North Carolina tobacco fields and tasted the unique blends crafted in the heart of Havana.
Along the way, I’ve received numerous awards for my work, including the prestigious ‘Golden Leaf Award’ for my contributions to tobacco quality assurance and sustainability. Still, the most significant accomplishment I cherish is fostering a greater understanding and appreciation for this complex industry.
I currently reside in London, England, an incredible city with a rich history in tobacco trade. Here, I am active in various professional networks, regularly hosting tobacco tasting events and workshops.
When I’m not immersing myself in tobacco, you might find me hiking the gorgeous trails across the UK or playing jazz piano at a local pub – I adore the parallels between crafting a melody and blending tobacco. Another hobby I’ve picked up recently is photography; capturing life’s fleeting moments provides a fresh perspective and enhances my appreciation for the world’s beauty.
If you’re curious to know more about my work, or perhaps you’d like to join me for a tasting session, don’t hesitate to reach out!
