I've got a few sets of 3 Nuns trios. I'd heard it was CS Lewis's favorite but for the life of me I can't develop a taste for it. The tins are from 2018.

$115 per set (red, green, and yellow) via PayPal with shipping CONUS included in that price.

Lewis smoked the original version, which was a VaPer not a Kentucky. The current iteration is Three Nuns in name only. My understanding is the owner of the rights to the VaPer version refuses to either produce it or give it to somebody who will, how the rights to the name and branding was acquired without the recipe is beyond me.

I haven't had the Green or Yellow but the Red is one of my favorite blends, I'm very nervous that STG might discontinue it especially now that we know Bengal Slices will be. I'd love to try the VaPer version, it was always well regarded and now any surviving tin will have at least 20 years of aging on it.

I probably would’ve enjoyed the original then!
