Recent TAD Pick-Ups

[jpmcwjr]

I myself haven't gotten it in many years (hence the surprise with the round tins).

I hear a lot of Germain's stuff are wildly available across the pound.

Which side of the pond?

Please put your location in your Profile, as people are forgetful.
Why:
That will save questions in the future as to where you live when you later mention local stores, weather, tobacco prices, availability, regulations, location of photos, wildfires, air quality, etc. In many instances that saves time for those who read your posts. It cuts down on posts or PMs asking where you are.
How:
Under your avatar, (top right, left most of three symbols) you choose "Account Details", which brings up "My Account". "My Location" is halfway down. Whatever you're comfortable with- town, city, county, state. province, etc.

Which side of the pond?

None, actually. UK members haven’t seen Germain’s available for at least six months. I’m keeping an eye too as I still have friends in the UK who could receive and hold an order for me, but no luck.

Ordered up a pound of Folklore.

It went quick. I saw it was gone from 2 sites already earlier this morning. I was curious but I'm not experienced & well-versed on my Virginia path yet so I passed. Still small tins for me in that family until I get that one figured out.

I missed out. It was gone by the time I saw the email. Glad you were able to snag some.

Tuesday delivery: 33 tins of Capstan Blue and 1 x 250g bag of Ascanian No.2. This completes my tobacco purchases for a while.

Good thing there's no such thing as Virginia burnout...

Nice haul!

Keep an eye out on Iwan Ries and P&C. They usually release late

It's good to have a "little" Capstan laying around. Wow!

This all showed up yesterday, some from a trade and some purchased. Next up is a tobacco press and I can get into some home blending. Not pictured is 5lbs of Mac Baren Virginia #1 to serve as a base for blends.

8oz each: Turkish Izmir, Burley, and St. James Perique.
4oz: Green River Black Cavendish and Cigar leaf.
3oz of FVF, 3 tins of Brunello, and 5 tins of Escudo.

 

[Philosopiper]

4.5lbs of Sutliff VA Slices. Great all-day blend.

I really miss Tad sometimes. Right now I am in the throes of PAD and that is cool. I have no business buying any new tobacco to age. All of my cellar is now aged to at least 5 plus years with 80% being at least ten years old. I am currently aging, Salty Dogs, Curly Block, Savinelli Doblone d'Oro , Butera Dark Stoved. Most of these are 5 years old so in another 2-3 I will start opening these tins to see how they are doing.
