   Kicking back enjoying some Best Brown for the premier's of 3 great shows tonight. House of Lies, Californication and Shameless. They're also free for those who don't have Showtime. They will re-run right after. Don't miss out on some great all American comedy.

   As in Samuel Gawith Best Brown? I just ordered some of that, one of the only SG blends I could get my hands on. Sounds like some pretty good stuff.

   4noggins has a nice bit of Samuel Gawith in stock, Pipes Novelist. What blends were you looking for exactly? They seem to come in pretty regularly if you keep a close eye on the inventory.

   dragonslayer, thanks for the notice about Californication! I'll have to watch that tomorrow. I only saw the finale for Season 5 last week - I love the show but I fell far behind and caught up in a matter of days...

   Their Bracken Flake sounds pretty good and there was another one I was looking at on pipes and cigars that eludes me. Ill look here in just a second.

   EDIT: It was the St James Flake. That one is out of stock on P&C as well.

   I'm also waiting for the St James flake to return, it's on my hit list to try and yet to get ahold of. I've been smoking the McClelland St James 2015, which I got an email that it's back soon. I'm buying a tin of the SG Best Brown waiting for the bulk, this time it won't be a 8oz purchase, but 16oz to smoke and 2lbs for hoarding/ageing.

   The bulks are hard to get in any quantity, so search widely and be patient.

   PN, did you settle against 1792 after? I don't know your preferences but as a fan of strong blends there's a good chance you'd like it. It is my kind of aromatic - but it is on a completely different planet from what most people would call aromatic. LOL. I can't imagine 1Q with darkfired VA...

   Wish I had tried the Best Brown bulk earlier not the last 4 sad looking oz's staring at me from their little glass jar lols. I would have been sitting on a stash right now.

   1792 has officially earned a spot on my list, but I am trying to stock my cellar with a few more Virginias and Vapers before I start worrying about the other stuff. Thanks for the heads up simenon.

   Its all good, I was just wondering what you decided! Let us know one way or another if you like it when you get a tin and finally fire up a bowl. I'm craving a bit of tonquin myself - I might have a small bowl today.

    Jrcigars usually has tins of Best Brown in stock and only charges 8.95 per. He has a flat rate of 5.00 for shipping.

    If any one is looking for FVF or Best Brown, these guys have it.

    Harris, thank you so much for the heads up on nice ash cigars. They had Navigator and some other delicious loveliness so I stalked up.
