This is huge! Even if you find something you like that is in regular production from a large company, it can change out of the blue, without notice.

Stock up, Stock up, Stock up.

I have had some favorites that do not taste like they used to even though they are still in production, by the same company. The only thing I can think of is that the process changed a little bit or the components changed.

Some would argue that my tastes changed, which is very possible, but not to the extent that I have noticed in some blends.
I have a very large cellar. Probably 70 pounds or so. But I gotta say, this whole tobaccapocalypse thing has taken alot of the meditative qualities out of the hobby for me. It seems everytime I smoke I'm thinking of the end 😆

One of the hazards of the online world, for better or worse. I don’t necessarily think about it when I’m enjoying a pipe. But I need to get out of the habit of keeping multiple online store windows open every time I check in here!
