There is plenty of FVF at small mom and pop b/m tobacconists in the low tax states. You just need to find it is all.
You'll pay yea but you can order pretty much all SG products from Synjeco in Switzerland. You can get Full Virginia Plug which isn't available in the USA.
With some patience, I expect you'll be able to buy the FVF here in the not too distant future. As Harris said, if you start calling B&M's, you should at least be able to find some tins here and there. Watch here, people offer it up for sale fairly often. And while it is better with age, I like it fresh as well.

I had 2 whole jars almost a year old.I think I'm half way thru the first and if my T-buds don't change I'm not gonna waste it by trying to smoke it when someone else could be loving it.I mean it scalds my mouth no matter whst i do.And its odd because I love ps lnf and a couple other Virginias.I might have to take a burley break and smoke nothing but Virginia all week then try fvf at the weekend,anyway I got some time before I can trade anyway.Pm me and maybe we can work something out if you can't score any by then.Good hunting.

FVF need a LOT of drying time to get the most out of it. Otherwise, it tastes like crap. A good couple of hours, maybe more, and it really sings.

Thanks guys.I kept hearing how great it was but every time I smoked it was horriblenand my tongue would be so frigged up I couldn't smoke anything else.I got so upset I almost threw the 250 grams minus 6 or so pipes away.Maybe now I get some enjoyment out of the last jar.
Years ago when FVF was half the current price and routinely available, it was 1 of my regular blends for awhile. While I liked it better than any other straight Virginia blend due to is fuller, darker taste, that was relative for me as it still seemed blander than I like. Turned out I need other component tobaccos in a Virginia blend to really appeal to me.
Forget the bowl suggestion I have come to the conclusion that I don't like it.Im not saying it's a bad tobacco I'm saying it does not agree with me.It has taken me year to smoke 125 grams and the other 125 will more than likely take 10 yr.s to smoke.I just don't have anything positive say about fvf.So full Virginia flake and sutliff creme brulee would make me quit the pipe if that's all there was to smoke
