wow round tin Penzance? I wouldn't even want any of that ? (definite case of the sour grapes).

I know! I will miss the square tins..

I had a tin last year but don't remember the tasting notes now, anyone can offer a quick reminder? Probably sold out though eh?

I’ll let you know as soon as I open one!

Cigar Haul

 

[ofafeather]

It’s been a summer of TAD and my “budget” (if such a thing really exists!) has been stretched. I won’t bore you with the sordid details of my TAD adventures over the last 12 weeks or so but will tell you that I received a lovely package from Watch City Cigars today containing 1lb of Watch City Flake 558 and 2oz each of Nor’easter, The Churchwarden and Ahab’s Comfort along with a tin of 50g each Rattray’s Red Reparee and Black Mallory.

TAD strikes again! Ordered the following:

4 Wessex Burley Slice
3 Presbyterian Mixture
2 Solani Silver Flake

Got tired of waiting on my latest tobacco order that's been stuck "processing" with customs for 9 weeks now so I picked these up locally.

That will definitely ease the waiting pains. Nice haul.

The 4nogs put MB HH Balkan Blend on sale for a quick minute, so I got a pound of that, plus 100g of Red Rapparee. Added an 8 ounce tin of Union Square to reach the land of free shipping.

Ordered Friday and in my grubby mitts today!

Crap load of bike parts came in and I was busy putting them away. Then this came in. Still going down GLP blends, and finally got that Presbyterian. Peterson are for the cellar.

After 9+ weeks stuck in customs my US order finally arrived. Really excited to try Key Largo that the friendly folks here recommended.

 

[J.Henry845]

2 pouches Amphora Burley
2 pouches Amphora Kentucky
2oz GL Pease Jackknife Ready Rubbed
2 oz. C&D Billy Budd

Did not intend on ordering any tobacco but added to an order of an estate pipe.

TAD gets vicious once you come down with it. Ordered one each of the following:

Orlik Golden Sliced
Gawith & Hoggarth Rum Flake
MacBaren Vanilla Flake
MacBaren HH Burley Flake

Haven't tried any of the flakes yet so kind of excited.

 

[troyniss]

Order from May 22 finally arrived. Never thought it would show.

MacBaren Golden Extra 1oz
Newminster no.702 Light Burley 1oz
PS Cube Cut 1oz
C&D Yorktown 1oz

Not tobacco :
Peterson Aran Nickel Mounted X105
Brown Pipe Roll

Finally got most of the bulk burley blends available. Going through them to decide which one is worthy of the cellar.

 

[Elric]

Oh what a slippery slope:

3 Wessex Burley Slices
1 Edward G Robinson Blend
5 Presbyterian Mixture
Capstan Blue

Yes I am! ? Tack för tipset!

A couple orders arrived. The one with the Navy Rolls was back ordered for a little bit but both arrived OK this week. Deepening cellar of the De Luxe Navy Rolls and widening a bit with the others.
