Recent TAD Pick-Ups

[FLDRD]

Just got some Drucquer & Sons Merry Monk. Warped was on sale not long ago so I picked up a Red Hunt and Sarto, and before that MB was on sale so I grabbed HH Latakia Flake and some others (Vanilla roll cake, Scottish mixture I think, Plumcake, some others), needed pipe cleaners another time and grabbed GH&C Ennerdale and Rum Flake, and previously picked up random limited stuff as it came out (like Sutliff birds Anomalous, MB Stockton, etc).

Going to be a hot minute to catch up. I'm trying to pare down to no more than 2 open tins at a time in each genre (which I split very broadly by English/balkan, burley based, VA based and aromatic based).

I got more in my wishlist to throw into my cart when stuff goes on sale or I need to pickup other stuff like pipe cleaners.

I think I need a bigger cabinet soon... (airtight bins contain open tins, the only open foreground tin is Ennerdale but there's no room to put it in my aromatic bin; the far left stack is empty tins + Pegasus, Blockade and Black Frigate that didn't quite impress me but I might smoke through later).

It starts so simply...
And grows with many little justifications...
And soon you'll be purchasing containers for the ones you know you'll want to go back to later...

I started my cellar with two old cabinets that I saved from a kitchen remodel. Thought that would be PLENTY of room. So yeah…. It’s now expanded to two bankers boxes behind the two cabinets.

Most recent deliveries from across the pond, those good people at Smokingpipes. Excellent service, timely and cheap (super cheap when you factor in the exchange rate):

Some more of the cellar acquisition. Plus some Sig 4s and small tats that are my “driving to the store cigar”.

4 oz. Newminster #400 Navy Flake

$17.60 shipped! How could I not?!?

 

[Sobrbiker]

Dangit!!!
I should’ve held off last Friday, I forgot all about the Phantom Privateer coming out. I can’t stand “drops”, but it sounds right up my alley.

Got a good deal on this 320KS and some VA Slices during the smokingpipes.com sale this past week. Smoked the first bowl last night!

 

[CoffeeAndBourbon]

Nice blast!

Besides Sillem’s Black these are the first tins I’ve bought in over 6 years. And no, I don’t have any tins in my cellar

Who is the manufacturer of this? The magic Google has nothing (so far...)

I was wondering the same. Is that supposed to be Indiana Jones on there?

James Ravenwood blends and has tinned some special tobaccos. Very limited runs. So far the other blends I have tried have been fantastic. I can't wait to try this one.
