**Triple C -- The Harvest Issue Review…read more
(CABO Finished / Velvet Haze Edition)**
There's something special about walking into Triple C --
it's not just a store, it's a local pulse.
Bee and I have been in a lot of shops over the years,
but there's only one place where you get greeted with:
"How'z tingz shakin, BOOK...?"
Yeah.
That's Joe -- the dude with the steady eyes,
the quiet grin,
and a presence that tells you everything in that moment
is gonna be square, solid, and chill.
Joe's got this gift:
he reads a customer's whole day in two seconds,
then hands over exactly the vibe they needed.
No fluff, no rush -- just community-grade hospitality.
He's part curator, part counselor, part old-school neighborhood backbone.
And then there's the LEAF -- The Harvest Issue.
Bruh... this one's a keeper.
Thick pages, beautiful spreads,
and the kind of editorial warmth that feels like late autumn sunlight.
We finished ours with CABO Velvet Haze,
which hits like cinnamon gold in the lungs,
soft edges, smooth brainwave lift,
and that warm drifting hum that
turns flipping pages into a ritual.
Typing "Velvet Haze" while under Velvet Haze
took... a LOT of determination,
but here we are --
mission accomplished, mmm.
And now let's give a shout to
the shop's silent guardian:
HUMPHREY
(with an E, don't get it twisted)
If Triple C ever wanted a mascot, a statue, a biographer,
or someone to write a whole book about attitude,
stance, and legendary stoicism,
Humphrey's the guy.
He could have his own Chronicle, his own Saga,
maybe even his own audiobook narrated in deep woodland baritone.
The man's an institution.
Triple C is lucky to have him.
We all are.
Final Word:
If you want a place where you're treated like a friend
and leave feeling just a little more you
than when you walked in --
Triple C's your stop.
Joe, the LEAF, Humphrey, the whole vibe --
it's part Clearlake myth, part community heartbeat,
and all good energy.
Five stars.
Easy.
