Thanks for the heads up.

The "And So To Bed" is gone. I work 7:00am to 5:30pm each day so even when I get the alerts I usually miss when things are in stock, but that's life.

 

[zitotczito]

Well both are now gone. Hope anyone who wanted it was able to.

I already have both, haven't tried either but I have high hopes for Margate especially. It seems like they're not so hard to find anymore. I have tried Penzance now enough to make a decision on whether I like it or not, and my opinion of it is "where's the beef?" It's creamy, but kind of like if you add too much milk to your tea or coffee and there's really no flavor left. I guess I'm kind of glad to have tried it to decide there's really nothing about it that appeals to me, I think if it were in a blind tasting with several people who had never tried it, it would rank pretty low. Around the end of the bowl where it's getting to the dottle and most blends are becoming too harsh and you dump it I found it was starting to pick up a bit to the point where I found it satisfying. But yeah there's too many blends out there for me to bother with penzance.

@zito check your pm's.

Only had 1 bowl of and so to bed. thought it to be an english blend until i tried it. Dint really appeal to me

 

[fnord]

Effing hell.
I've tried most of the Esoterica blends and the only one that really appeals to me is And So To Bed.
Penzance is tasty but ASTB buzzes my buttons right now.
I've got Esoterica SH and PZ to swap if you've got some ASTB, and I'll be happy to trade a couple of bowls or do the oz/gr dance.

What's the deal with Esoterica? I've been out of the game a while and I see everybody loves this stuff but it's impossible to get. Now I REALLY want to try it lol

What's the deal with Esoterica?

Arguably one of the best tobacco manufacturers in the world (trust me, people will argue), low production volume, high demand (usually only just for Penzance and Stonehaven, but lately for everything).

 

[CherokeeBilly]

Hmm I must get my hands on some

 

[derfargin]

I hate to say it, but I had been avoiding trying Penzance just for the fact that I didnt want to get "sucked in" to liking it. Rsuninv was generous and sent me a sample and I gave it a fair shot and unfortunately.....I liked the hell out if it. Due to the availability of it, I'll try to get a few bags if I can, but I can't spend the time hunting for it. I was able to score a few more ounces locally, but I'll keep that around for special occasions.

 

[peckinpahhombre]

Shame on Rsuninv for getting you hooked. I like the stuff too. Welcome to the rabbit hole.

[woodsroad]

Has anyone evr actually ordered from Bigsmokes? The web site checkout is non-functional.

 

[zitotczito]

I tried it also and same thing, a no go on checkout.

 

[hiplainsdrifter]

Windy City Cigar is legit, I just placed an order with them, their prices are better than I have seen anywhere online for in stock Esotericas.

 

[mrjerke]

I don't think Big Smokes is in business. I've tried calling before to no answer.

 

[CherokeeBilly]

I grabbed some from Windy City so I can see what all the fuss is about, cant wait for it to get here!
