AHAHA!!! The crazy wait times and loops I've jumped threw to get the last 5 or 6 of his releases, and now I've finally gotten a bunch RIGHT at launch :nana:
Normally I'd agree, but with Pease's blends, especially the ones with Latakia, I've come to trust him. I have similar tastes to him, and I particularly enjoy Latakia, so a new lat blend of his that he's been more or less smoking non stop for 2.5 months.....I can pretty confidently say I'm gonna want all 10 I ordered. And if not, I'll actually have a tobacco to use for trading laterI've never understood why people buy like 5, 10, 20 of something they've never tried. Yes, the few reviews I saw said it was very good, but taste is subjective and everyone is different. Personally, I like to try stuff before stocking up on anything.
I can understand to a point that if you have very similar tastes as another person and enjoy all the same blends, but I still like to try it first before stocking up. Yes, it does make for trade stock, but I'd rather not risk it myself.Normally I'd agree, but with Pease's blends, especially the ones with Latakia, I've come to trust him.

From his site:Like all of Greg's blends, it probably needs to be aged for a few years
So, you're right. But I do enjoy a lot of his "fresh" and hope he's not just being a "happy new daddy" and this one is truly absolutely ready to smoke ::The aging potential here is, I think, extraordinary. It's great now, absolutely ready to smoke, but it will continue developing nuance and increased complexity over at least the next 5-10 years, and probably longer.
My sometimers kicked in today and I nearly forgot about the Gaslight at 4Noggins today. I didn't get the amount I wanted, but I snagged the last three tins. Added a pound of NiteCap and some cleaning supplies for the free shipping.Was hoping to receive my shipment today but it didn't happen. Shipping from North Carolina to Vermont is 3 days.
I'll have Gaslight on Friday and make it available on my website as soon as I have it in hand.
