I was getting low on my jarred McCelland's 5110 so I decided to open a 5# box I had stored in my cellar (actually, an interior closet) since May of last year. I cut the tape and opened the box to find the expected 5# bag of 5110. I pulled it out and hiding under it was a 1# bag of a broken flake that had 5110 written on it too. This ISN'T 5110. What in blue blazes is it? After checking some reviews and posting a description on SF, it turns out to be McCelland's 2015, a Va/Per.

Now, I've often thought of ordering a couple of ounces to try because I've never smoked a Va/Per.

First things first though. I called the seller, explained what had happened and asked him what they wanted me to do with it.

"Enjoy it." was his reply.

"How much do I owe you?" I asked.

"Nothing." he said.

Trying to conceal my enthusiasm, I said, "Thank you!!!"

I tried some in a pipe dedicated to Va's and liked what I tasted.

I have two open spaces in my racks.... E-bay, oh E-bay, come here E-bay.... Ra haha ha!

A 1# bag is way too much for one person to have....better send 2 oz to me asap. :)
