Tea stain comes complimentary on the label, huh?

I agree and disagree with Hugh. Old money doesn’t want to be fussed over. New money does. It’s the difference between old and new.

Yes David, but the trouble arises when suddenly “the fuss” becomes more important than the actual product. Style bleeding substance dry- a common phenom in designer label. A common problem in New York, period.

English Cut’s customers generally LOVE the fact that we don’t do that. The minute we start caring about “fuss” is the minute we start losing something truly unique. Just my opinion.
