Says 63 in stock right now. Damn, $55. I'm setting on a gold mine. I may have to rethink giving people tins of this in the Christmas exchange, ha ha.

I always got a kick out of ordering from McCranie's. Only place I knew where I'd place the order, send the check, and they'd send the order out immediately without waiting for the check. That honor system made you feel good.

The question is always, "Is a $55 tin THAT much better than a $15 tin?"

When it was $15/tin and less it was.

Esoterica? No.
McClelland Red Virginia? Probably.

Depends on what you want from the experience.

FWIW, I remember the 2000 edition as a lighter blend, not the robustness of the others. Of course, it's been 8-9 years since I last smoked it, so it may have gained a little something.

I agree. Ha, when I first ordered from them I asked if they would repeat the payment instructions because I thought I misheard them.

I really miss Currituck. That was by far my favorite offering of theirs.

Down to just 21 left. Better hurry guys.

 

[mingc]

Nope. Thanks to @witchofthehollow for the heads up tho.

no just that much harder to find. Choice means prices have to be competitive. No choice means you can charge what the market will bear.

All gone, which shows you that tobacco could be priced a lot higher and people would still buy it up.

Indeed. People are buying used Dunnies for thousands of dollars. For sure they'll buy $55 unicorns.

I was close to pulling the trigger, but a quick look at my cellar made me realize that this bout of FOMO was actually FauxMO
