    SP C&D 20% sale started

    For anyone trying new-to-them C&D blends: without fail, I have found that ALL of them are far better, less bitey, more smooth, after being opened for a week or two. YMMV Then again, my palate may feel that way about most blends, but don't discount your first experience if it's less than you...

    No, I think each one will take about 2 weeks for potential impact. I intend to send a 3rd as well. I'm concerned about them getting through the iron dome so I've split it up, hoping that puts the odds in my favor.

    What is your Favorite Christmas Blend?

    I think the first aromatic that I've enjoyed, and is associated with the season, is Thanksgiving Day. I've gotten my hands on a cellar that has 3 different years in it. I'm liking it more than anticipated. I also got my hands on some Christmas Cheer (2 different years), and have 2 or 3...

    Your Favorite Pipes?

    Me too! I ended up with 2 of those Cap'n Petes and my desire slowly fizzled for them. I've even sold one of them off since that time. I definitely have a few new favorites. Still Petersons though! I've decided that's all I'll buy. It limits my erraticism and puts a slight restriction on the...

    McClelland Christmas Cheer 2001

    Maybe I really do need to go through with opening that 2011 tin I got my hands on recently. It will be my first experience with the blend of any year. I probably wouldn't go through all of it, rather jar it and grab it sometimes.

    A Little Disappointed in Recent Brulor Purchase

    Wouldn't the stinger prevent tobacco from getting very far? Now that I've read all the replies, I see that you've got it conquered.

    What Were Your Go-To Tobacco’s in 2025?

    I appreciate the motivation. I started slowly and now will have several open at any given time, but it took a couple years for me to get that way.

    🌟 🎄 🎅 The UnOfficial Official 2025 PM Secret Santa Thread 🎅 🎄 🌟

    BTW, I did get a pkg at my home, which I grabbed and brought inside earlier. I'm certain I haven't forgotten about an order I placed so I think my SS is on the ball and has accomplished his goal. It's a nice size too. But instead of opening right away, I think I need to wait until after I've...

    Aromatics for Tobacco Lovers

    Does Thanksgiving Day count in this category? I got my hands on some in a recent purchase, and I like it despite the description of it indicating I likely wouldn't.

    What Were Your Go-To Tobacco’s in 2025?

    Still on my variety kick, as I've a shelf full of new ones to try. But I was very pleased to discover how much I enjoyed the HU offerings. Of note, I may be one of those that have really gotten over my initial love of Latakia. It just doesn't do anything for me at the moment, and I'm wondering...
