Hello from the UK!

Welcome from the PNW!

Welcome to this knowledgeable, generous, funny and opiniated group.

To say I've learned a lot from the Forums members is an understatement. And I've had a lot of fun and bellyaching laughs along the way.

Please put your location in your Profile as people are forgetful.
Why:
That will save questions in the future as to where you live when you later mention local stores, weather, tobacco prices, availability, regulations, location of photos, wildfires, air quality, etc. In many instances that saves time for those who read your posts.
How:
Under your avatar, (top right, left most of three symbols) you choose "Account Details", which brings up "My Account". "My Location" is halfway down. Whatever you're comfortable with- town, city, county, state. Just country if you must.

how many posts we've made and how many times someone has reacted to our posts. So a combination of how long and how active we've been here. The joke answer is once you make three new posts that don't get edited for improper capitalization in the title.

Welcome from Alaska

Are there any particular blends that are favored by the locals, possibly?

Not really, theres only a few of us here and we only have one B&M. They make a decent aro called stoneys blend, and an ok english cake called sewards folly.

Most of us order tobacco almost exclusively from outside due to limited selection here and the 120% tobacco tax.

Wow! 120%... some things we'll never understand. Good luck and best of smokes.
