I'm not ordering any since I'm deep in good blends already, but if it shows up as regularly available I probably won't be able to resist it for too long. But for now, I'm being strict with myself.
A member here sent me a new tin some years ago, and it is one of the primo blends I've tasted. It never made it into a jar. Good for Sutliff to distribute it.

Initial impression, rubbed out, in a new MM diplomat cob, sweet, coco flavor with a touch of cinnamon spice. First 1/3 the bowl required a number of relights, though the moisture level is the same as I enjoy FVF. At this point, I let the pipe sit for 10-15 min, then fired it back up. The spice element kicked up a notch, coco note waned a bit, but the sweetness remained. Tasty with a side of zest.
I got some from Watchcitycigar.com, smoked through one tin, and reupped when it finally showed up at P&C. Received order in 3 days. .
It smokes a lot like SG Best Brown, a hair sweeter and some Oriental funk. SG Best Brown is a favorite of mine, I think this is right up there. I found it smooth as silk, no real rough edges, cool smoking and very easy to get going and keep lit. Moisture content was fine right out of the self opening tins. I put all of them, including the tin, in Mylar.
It has been many months since I had any issues with P&C, even managed to grab some Esoterica tins in the last drop. Some things in life do get better.

I quite liked BSF as well and I would have to agree with your likening it to Best Brown. Both great blends, imo, and Best Brown has been a daily smoke for me these past many months.
