I've never seen PS41 out of stock at SP. The reviews for it weren't even very good. I thought I was safe with that one.Ask mingc how to get some...
Really hope pipe tobacco doesn't go the same route as Cuban cigars because of the Asian market. I don't know enough about Cuban cigars or the Asian market to make any claims, but I've read on here about the price hike.
I think to some extent it already has. However the Chinese market is fickle and follows hype. You've got a lot of "new money" buying "old luxury" goods with the most brand clout to show off first and actually smoke and enjoy second or third. So for most of the Chinese market they're buying scarce high end like Esoterica. I guess if your main source of 'baccy is online ordering Esoterica you've had a rough couple years and are going to be in for more. For most of us though the Chinese market is not a huge influence, things like this with STG are much more likely caused by the ever rippling wave of supply issues every industry is going through right now.
Again, TR is a joke. PS41 is a great blend and was once often talked about here. Always quite well thought of. I always bought a couple of five pound bags per sale.
Can we start blaming everything on the railroad strike now? Asking for a friend.
I will be adding poundage when it comes back in stock.
I just looked and found most of the popular blends available at pipes and cigars . Mingc just tell the people
haha, and it's totally reliable too!
Available until you get the not available email and the war for a refund begins.
This ^ 1000%. It's the one tobacco site where you can't believe anything you see on the screen.
I snagged a couple of bags of Esoterica 2 or 3 drops back from P&C and actually received them! As the old silverback gorilla who trained me in my first private sector job liked to say, it's better to be lucky than good.
I buy it off Boswells all the time. Right now its still available, its a problem once its gone. SPC is the biggest retailer in the game and they cant get it, so whats that say? Again I didn't ask how to get it, I asked why some retailers arent getting resupplied.
Smoking pipes.com is a tiny company compared to the company that owns pipes and cigars , which happens to be the worlds dominant supplier of tobacco, including ownership of Peter Stokkebye. Scandinavian tobacco group a 10 B public company. If STG.CO decides to change their distribution strategy globally , things will change for the distribution channel

That may be true to STG globally but here in the States, P&C is not moving as much "Pipe and pipe tobacco" as SPC. And if you look at their 2nd quarter earnings they are behind. Again, why is Stokkebye not being restocked?
