BarberDave's Shaves & Such

Enjoyed the video. Can you explain why there are two different spellings of “Cubebe” (“Cubeba”)? Curious.
Litsea Cubeba is an Asian evergreen with a Lemony fruit. It is also called may
Chang

Cubebe is a peppery from the plant piper cubeb. It is a mixture of all spice and peppery nuances

They are actually two different plants one as mentioned above from an Asian local
And the other indonesian

So Litsea Cubeba is a bright lemony oil that has great skin properties and Cubebe ie from SV takes its name from the cubeb berry or cubeb pepper

Hope that helps
 
Glad you’re feeling better. For you to not shave it must have been an awful illness. I had to tune in and check out your whiskers! You definitely didn’t look like yourself. Here’s to your continued recovery from the Creeping Crud, or whatever has gotten ahold of you. Be well, Dave. (y)
