About 3 weeks average time here, as well. I’ve never ordered around Christmas time.

Lots of good stuff in your haul. Many happy smokes!

I would guess it takes longer with more holdups over the holidays.

glad to hear the average time is less than I thought.

keep in mind AlaskanPiper is in Alaska.. which probably takes about the longest possible.

Being in Alaska has nothing to do with it, the delays are all related to it getting to the US in the first place. Once it cleared customs it was here in a few days. Shipping to AK is actually sometimes faster than many other states, because it immediately gets on a plane.

It is also a common misconception that it will be more expensive, which is not true unless you are using FedEx. USPS Priority Mail and flat rate boxes cost about the same as shipping anywhere else.

That is actually the Special Fayyum Kake, which I ordered because I LOVE the regular Fayyum that I got in my last order. It is fantastic.

That and the Louisiana Broken are my favorite HU blends so far.

Awesome haul! Louisiana Broken is probably my favorite HU blend but they are all good. St Bernard Flake is amazing and one of my all time favorite VaPers. Esterval also sells it in 4kg slabs.

Ditto! LB and Fayyum are my favorites so far, thats why there are more tins of each in this haul! St. Bernard will be new to me, stoked to try it.

Yeah, 4kg would be about 8 years worth of tobacco for me if I smoked only that blend so I haven’t done any of those. Boy would I love to see that slab show up though, hahahhaa.

Full disclosure, I did split that slab with a fellow pipe club member. So it was only 2kg or 4.4 lb each...
