Big white envelope with an address that reads "Dream Castle." Call me paranoid but the thing spooked me a bit. All my baccy orders and pipe acquisitions are accounted for....And the envelope rattles...yeah like I'm opening that! So I look on the Google for this company Dream Castle and find several folks have received one and no white powder exploded out of it upon opening. So I opened it and found a tin of baccy from Sutliff Tobacco Company. The tin has beautiful artwork depicting a fall foliage scene with a river running through it and the blends name is Great Outdoors. I open the tin and again, no powder of death. From first pop of the lid I was taken aback by the strong aroma of Kodiak or maybe Cope chewin' baccy. I know I can't smoke it because it's an aro and the smell alone was enough to turn me off of smoking it. I guess it will go into my guest tobacco pile of blend samples that I can't or won't smoke. My son in law will try anything, so I will just let him try the first bowl to make sure there are no surprises left in this mystery baccy. I hope it goes well as I need the kid to mow and shovel snow!

Just thought I would share

Yep, you must've put your name and address in the free sample thing from Altadis (Sutliffe's actual company name). Funny, I smoke aro's and told 'em so when I did it and they sent their No. 5 blend (which is a Dunhill 965 knock-off). I liked it, but was confused why I got it. Go figure.

I received mine also . Balkan luxury blend. Put it up for now.

Already received 1.3 #'s of tobacco from Sterling and have a another 1+#'s

of St. James Woods ,Lanes1Q and a few pouches of P.A. mixed up in a bag That i call

Greek Stew.

I found another site for free sample and it goes back to the Altdis's site.

Filled out the form again and it was excepted. Never know.
