New Box Pass Thread

[jameral]

The ziplock baggies is definitely the way to go about it, it's the only way that I was able to zip through the box (no pun intended) in quick fashion and get it on its way to the next person.
Photoman, I tried somed Halfling's Leaf from the box; boy is that good stuff. I hope you get to try some too.

I will get the box in the mail this week, probably on Wed. I need to get a larger box to combine the two, and package up some things for my contribution. The box I was going to use, doesn't quit make it with all the goodies we have in there.
The Hafling Leaf is very good stuff, and I might leave some. Lol

Just to update - the box has not gotten to me yet. Don't know if gecko13 has had a chance to mail it or not.

 

[gecko13]

@Jud. I will get the box out shortly. I have to repack it into another box. I thought the box I was using was going to be big enough for the combined contents of the two boxes we have. I will get another bigger box in town today and get it out. Fear not, it's coming. :clap:
:puffpipe:

Cool, Gecko! Wanted to bump this thread before anyone started asking me if I had the box yet. :D

At this rate, I'll get the box again right around my birthday!

One away.....

I can't wait.......

I plan on using the zip lock bags also, so I won't tie up the box for the full two weeks.

I know many are waiting......

It's been 3 weeks since there was a picture of the box.
I'm going through withdrawl over here gents.

Its been quite a week; split my head open, got a concussion, and got stitches. But I did survive, and those that had hoped for a tobacco estate sale must wait a little longer.
With all that going on I finally have the box all packaged up are ready to ship to Jud. I am going to try and leave work early enough today to get it in the mail. With the combined contents of two boxes, it is really ALOT of good stuff.
I have pictures I'll try and post them tonight as soon as my son coughs up the USB cable to my camera.
I added the following to the box assortment:
Sam Gawith - St James Flake - Aged with some flowering.

Gawith, Hoggarth & Co.- Rum Cake - Has a bit of a nic hit, but a good, strong blend. There is a lakeland floral component some may not like though.

4_noggins - Bald headed teacher - Cellar almost 2 years

C&D Guilford - Courthouse - Nice mild and sweet Virginia blend. Cellar almost 2 years

H&H Stogie - Nice mellow blend with cigar leaf

P&C Bulk 965 - Cellar almost 2 years

McClelland 2011 Holiday Spirit - Nice aromatic blend. Let it dry out a bit though.

McClelland Blue Mountain - Great English blend, mild, and rich.
Also when combining the boxes I cut off parts of the other boxes that members had written comments on the inside. I didn't want to lose the box's connection with those that had sampled it and passed it on.
So in hopes of keeping and building of a legacy, I added a small notebook to the box. Everyone that has the box should write comments on what they tried, liked, hated, and other general comments to share.

Lol the box pass just became a "time capsule" of sorts. Good pass.
Let's keep the box lighter than an elephant if we can lol.

 

[judcole]

Wow. That's all I can say. Looking forward to it.

 

[photoman13]

Wow gecko13 you added a lot!

 

[baronsamedi]

I bet that new box is a BEAST! Thanks for putting in the work, gecko13!
