“Limited Blend”???

[Chalaw87]

Does anyone have any information on this mystery limited blend?
The advertisement was on a Cup O Joes email. The picture is of a square tin so I’m assuming Gawith product??
These blending houses are killing me with these limited releases. It almost seems like a marketing ploy to get me buy more, ha.

Exactly playing on FOMO to hype sales.

Imagine buying a pound of something you never smoked.

Are any details available on the blend? I wish they would just send JimInks a tin so we could all see a review ha.

On the flip side, I originally bought only two tins of CRF 2022. After a few days, I realized how much I liked it and that I was already opening the second tin. Unfortunately, most places online had already sold out. I scrambled and paid 25% more than retail per tin and located 1.5 lbs.

You just never know how it’s going to strike your fancy.

Here's how I see it. Sometimes a particular leaf becomes available that's really hard to find, so a limited release is the only way that it's going to become available. Then there are "seasonal" special blends. Mostly it's a form of manipulation. Any "limited" blend released in 1lb increments is a vote of "no confidence" by the blender. They want to get rid of it before reality sets in.

I do that all the time. I figure the worst thing that can happen is I find someone that bought too much of something I love or like alot. And these limited blends extra fill that though I have never one
