Sale: Rose Otto, Turkish (Rosa damascena) - Distillation Year 2005

[Guest guest]

Hi Butch,

 

Put me down for another 25 grams, call me greedy ;-), but to poor to get

more than that.

 

If I did my calculations right with a average specific gravity of 0.856,

25 grams works out to about 29.21 ml / .99 fl oz, so cost wise it works out

to about $9.93 a ml for the bulk buy at 25 grams,

50 grams equals about 58.41 ml / 1.97 fl oz, so cost is about $9.245 a ml

100 grams equals about 116.82 ml / 3.95 fl oz, so cost is about $8.52 a ml

 

Do these figures look about right to you.

Hi y'all,

 

This Sale ABSOLUTELY closes out at Midnight this Sunday (5 March).

 

I announced on 23 February 2006 .. that I have access to TWO more kilos

(2,000 grams) of Turkish Rose Otto (Rosa damascena) .. 2005 crop.

 

As of today .. 1,600 of those 2,000 grams are sold .. 400 grams remain.

 

There will be no more sales on Turkish Rose Otto until after the 2006

harvest/distillation. Odds are great the new crop (2006) of Rose Otto

will be higher in cost and the 2005 crop is more mellow anyway because

it improves a good bit as it ages.

 

The largest size I will sell is 100 grams.

 

Prices are:

 

25 grams ....... $ 290.00

50 grams ....... $ 540.00

100 grams ....... $ 995.00

 

The above prices are FOB Maryland and do NOT include shipping/insurance

to the buyer's location. Orders from the USA will be sent via US Postal

Priority Mail .. insured .. with Return Receipt required. International

orders will be sent via Global Express Mail. As y'all also know .. we

charge only actual costs for shipping .. there is no profit made from

shipping on ANY ORDER from my company .. and there are no Mickey Mouse

handling charges.

 

Those who wish to order will pay 50% in advance and the remaining 50% at

the time the Rose Otto is shipped to you .. no exceptions on this.

 

Payment can be made via Check, Money Order, Pay Pal or Credit Cards. We

take ALL Credit Cards except American Express.

 

You can contact me off line for more details or purchase procedures.

 

E-mail address is Butch Owen <ButchBsi

 

The producer is willing to hold these two kilos of Rose Otto for me

until Monday, 6 March 2006. On that day, he will deliver that which I

pay for and sell the remainder to the second highest bidder.

 

I am also notifying some of my customers off line .. so if you get a

post from me and you've already read this information on Oils & Herbs ..

I apologize in advance for the double whammy .. but I can't know who all

of the folks are on this list. I do know that I will get many requests

for bulk Rose Otto after this sale is closed .. it happened after the

last sale and it will happen after this sale. If you want Rose Otto ..

order it now!

 

I MUST Close this sale at Sunday night (Midnight) on 5 March 2006.

 

That's all folks. ;-)

 

Y'all keep smiling. :-) Butch http://www.AV-AT.com
