Thank you @woodsroad !!! You outdid yourself. I have opened up the tin of McConnell from 2012. This stuff if great. I can’t wait to try the rest of them. 
Thank you anonymous Secrecy Santa. Three new to me blends that each look tasty in their own right. I’ve no experience with this polish but have a lot of stems in need of some love! A book as well. You outdid yourself they/them/you! Thank you!!! Another year in the bag for B.Lew!
The eagle hath landed. Might wait to open it up..
This gig is a lot less lucrative than you think.
Saving of course the very generous gift from you all last year, which I hope will not be replicated.
Some really generous gifts in this thread guys 
I’ve got full name and address, but no clue of which member…
Merry Christmas and Happy Som Besths! A package arrived at the homestead this eve, from a Secret Santa in a location other than the North Pole. Oh my, what could it be?
Upon opening the faint smell of latakia and virginias wafted through the air, sending youngs and gals scurrying away. (Okay the exact opposite happened as all were eager to “help” open the box!)
And inside were joyous tins filled to the brim with burleys, virginias, cavendishes, orientals, and latakias! Oh my Secret Santa went above and beyond and must have fallen into a vat of liquid som besths as included are some truly generous and thoughtful treats!
A merry Christmas to you all!

- Plum Pudding, Special Reserve! Woah this is hands down my favorite blend!!!
- Hogshead! Here is a blend of superior virginias I have been wanting to try as my palette has been into virginias of late. Exceptional choice!
- Cobblestone Plum Rum. An entirely new blend I have not heard of, but it sounds exquisite and I am excited to crack it open!
- Krampusnacht!!!
Oh me oh my, oh boy! I was bemoaning that I did not get the last drop of Cringle Flake and to my surprise it has arrived from Secret Santa, only in the limited packaging!! Unbelievable!!! Only a true secret santa would be able to get this unique offering! - And that is not all, no! Included as well is a fancy Christmas Zippo, and flints! I love my zippo lighter as it holds up well to the Indiana winds, and so this is a welcome edition and very much appreciated. The design is tremendous as well! Warms my heart when things state Merry Christmas (just a personal thing)!!!
- And then, of course a smoking vessel in the form of a handsome Missouri Meerchaum cob, wow!! This cob holds very well and looks great with the amber stem!
A merry Christmas to you all!
The package for my match is moving on a brown truck towards it's patiently waiting recipient!
My wife also informed me that the item I was waiting on to go in that box finally arrived as well. She said she will be sending it off this week for a little post-Christmas surprise to my match.
Soms Besths, y'all!!

Oooohhh! A Som Besths duplex miracle!
When you’ve received your gift and your match has received theirs 
I think my match received theirs and is just waiting for christmas as the usps shows delivered.
So there I was . . .feeling the Mondays. Getting home from a long day of work, tired and hungry, I asked a kiddo to go get the mail. While I stared aimlessly at the contents of a sad refrigerator, the glee of a young child’s voice gained volume as she came closer to my glass half empty disposition. And that’s when it happened . . .”dad, your secret Santa package is here!!” The spirit of Som Besths instantly replaced my gloom and pure joy filled my soul. No way was I waiting. I opened that bad boy up to find a glorious bounty. My Virginia flake education is officially fast tracked and I’m stoked. In addition to the Virginia haul, a beautifully hand written note and some bags of tea. So thankful to this anonymous SS, but pretty sure I know who the Virginia smoking, tea drinking piper from that mailing address is. Thanks for making the day a Som Besths one good sir. Tip of the cap.
