Holiday Tobaccos

[cory84]

I couldn't find the thread with recent tobacco purchases so I'll start this one. Decided to put together a little sampler of holiday tobaccos offer by P&C.

2 oz Sutliff Frosty Mint
1 oz Russ' Yule Log
1 oz Russ' Sugar Plum
1 oz H&H Egg Nog



Anyone else smoking some holiday blends?

I suppose my order of the recent Cringle Flake would fit the bill.

WCC Double Barrell
LJP Thanksgiving

Be careful with that frosty mint. Smoke it in a pipe you’re willing to dedicate to frosty mint forever...

Yeah this is some powerful stuff! I don't intend on putting it in anything other than a cob. That's my rule for anything with such ghosting potential.

I'm not much of an aromatic guy. Everyday is Christmas for me when it comes to the enjoyment of pipe smoking.

Hoosierpipeguy,
I agree on both counts. I tried the EGR today; posted about it; I’m not an aro smoker.

So looking forward to Crooner, Epiphany and Chatham Manor.

Bought the Lane Raspberry on a whim. I’m eager to try that too but I’m certain it’ll meet the same fate as EGR.

Happy Holidays to all!

I'm not an aro smoker, but the EGR is not too bad. I can still make out the tobacco.

Beautiful pipe & tobacco. How many different vintages of Christmas Cheer do you have Embers?

Gawith Rum Flake is always a favourite of mine at this time of year, I Normally get the Peterson Holiday blend but they didn't make one this year (COVID?).
The Gawith Christmas tobacco is lovely and I bought the Peter Heinrich's & Rattray's special editions as well as the new Kohlhase & Kopp aromatic.

We don't get anywhere near the amount of Christmas blends like you do in America and definitely no straight Virginias, I wish Gawith did a special aged Christmas version of Full Virginia Plug or something.

Excluding 1993 for obvious reasons, I once had many tins of each year dating back to 1992. In that time my collection has dwindled to the oldest being 2014.

This year's Christmas blends

I've got a jar of Russ's Candy Cane Cocoa I haven't opened in two years, and a dedicated cob solely for that blend, lol.

Ordered Some Christmas Blend from Milan Tobacconist in Roanoke Va. Amazing stuff! Tastes like all your favorite desserts in one.

+1 on the GH Rum Flake. Also Cringle Flake 2019 and 2020, and Corncob Pipe and a Button Nose.

This year, I've picked up:
Cringle Flake 2020
WCC Double Barrel
KBV Festivus GT
KBV Festivus Pudding

And my Secret Santa gave me a tin of Corn Cob Pipe (and a button nose).

I've been very happy with all of the ones I've tried so far.
