I've noticed Samuel Gawiths fvf seems to be perpetually out of stock at multiple online shops. Anybody know why and or who has any?

It comes and goes...l for a while. It will be back but you will need to have an eye for it when it arrives

FVF and SJF have had irregularly available for a number of years now. I remember shortages as far back as 2010.

I saw it available this week, I think at Tobaccopipes. It's cheap, buy the 250 gr box and store some. It very, very good so you'll smoke it over time. And it's popular so even if you don't like it, you'll easily recover your money.

When I loaded up on FVF back in 2012 it was in short supply. I found most of my stock at a small b/m and not the big 3. I was even getting a 10% discount when I ordered in 5 pound lots.

I bought some 2 year aged FVF from a forum member, and it was still very light in color. I smoked it and enjoyed it, but nowhere near blown away by all the hype.
Now I am smoking some 5 yr stuff I just received. This was much darker in color,more molasses/raisin smell...and now I'm a believer. This stuff is awesome, but definitely needs the age to get the best flavor.
