Dear Sirs,
I'm glad to tell you that I did it... I mean I got the goods from the customs finally.
The customs story is worth a novel and I'm shamed of our Armenian customs office unprofessionalism, anyway, its all behind now.
The first thing I opened the box I was stunned how beautiful is it!!!
Even I saw numerous photos on your site the real thing is much beautiful. And the quality of work is amazing.
Nobody could just pass by without admiration and now in the village where I have a orchard a house Portugal is the most popular country in the world :-)
Yesterday I tried to test run it with a cleaning distillation with a mixture of flour and water. I could not accomplish it in 8 hours, because I placed the alembic outside, and may be because of a wind the temperature could not rise above 55 degrees and it was not enough for a water/flour mix to evaporate.
The place I live is 1600 meters above the sea level, so in theory everything should boil in lower temperature. Anyway, this week I'll continue my experiments to be ready for apricot harvest that is coming after some 10 days.
Thank you again for your support and the beautiful bain marie.
