!. Mark sold the company. I do not know the name of the buyer.

2. The buyer is cutting some of the line up. What is getting cut I do not know, except that some of the cuts are due to that product being more complex and costly to make.

3. Welcome to the reality of the tobacco world of 2020.

4. I'm glad I bought what I did, when I did, 'cause even with blends that have not been cut, the quality is taking a hit.
Not good news to hear ?

I don’t mean to be an alarmist, but if they decide that it’s the Perique that’s too costly to mess with, there could be a lot of blends from other companies that will either disappear or take severe a hit in quality as well, no?

Shit if I left it in a box she probably would. That’s Acorn.. a feral kitten I rescued from an abandoned house.
Gotta love torties. We had one when I was growing up. Swell cat, but couldn't meow for the life of her, poor baby. She came by on Halloween & we hadn't had any trick or treaters, so my parents let me keep her. Good on you for taking her in! Our current three are all rescues, including the Maine Coon.

Funny, I preferred the St James to the AP. Can't put my finger on it either. I find the AP lacking in flavor compared to SJ, but thats all I can figure out. Both a great though and I have a pound of each. I smoke D&R more then any other blender these days.

I agree I love the SJ, managed to get a pound to England 4oz at a time.
