The link below has 5 tins of Margate available now. Two weeks ago, there were 2 pounds and 10 tins available. I was in 2 shops and know of at least 2 others I called and ordered from that had quite a bit of Esoterica on hand.

I've gotten a few pounds of Margate over the last six weeks, thanks to members here and a local B+M. And while it's my favorite at the moment, there are tons of other excellent English blends, many by American Blenders. But what is the topping? I am surprised to hear that it's topped at all.Margate is rather unique due to the topping. There are countless other English/Balkan blends that have some similarities. What's similar to you is unlikely to be similar for other people as it is personal taste. Point is, if you love Margate, then why not simply buy all you can when it is available?
Why not just purchase Margate instead?Pembroke is basically Margate with a cognac topping, and I finished off my Pembroke by airing it out plenty to get rid of that scent.
