Agreed. Doblone d'Oro and Brunello Flake are excellent tobaccos. I trust these will be good as well.

Instead of Juno I think I’d rather buy a bulk pound of C&D Yorktown.
I hope not. I’ve had a string of C&D blends that read on the tin like they’re up my alley, but just fall flat. I think something at C&D just doesn’t agree with me.
Turns out I was wrong. I got a tin of each to review just now.
I'd bet on them being good, but they should have asked jiminks to review them -- always prudent. I'm so overstocked for my slow poke smoking, I shouldn't buy any blends until 2046, but no doubt I will. Oops, now I see jiminks just posted he's received tins for review. Never mind. All is well.
I didn't know they were coming until I saw the box on my front step a few minutes ago. Anyway, I just lit up a bowl of Juno. Picked my best Va. pipe for it.
They seem to have a few different lines made by different manufacturers.
I ordered the Jupiter a few days ago along with a few others. I ordered Escudo because I love that one and miss it, also got yellow Sail because I'am just curious about it, Robinson blend you know the one that Ji Minks loves so much, and jupiter because honestly I've been have some weird dreams with Jupiter themes and I strongly believe in living live superstitiously.
Is it just me or is Doblone d;Oro the least consistent blend on the planet. It can go from best to o.k. in the same bowl or is it just me?
It happens, I had some last night and it was great. I have a few tines and I haven't smoked enough of it but I seem to enjoy it when I do. I'm going to reach for more often.
As for the new blends I have to let my mail box cool off or I'm in the dog house. I have been getting a lot of tobacco with two more orders incoming. Most of the orders in the last few weeks have flown under the radar but I'm pushing my luck.
It's JimInks, man. I don't know why I was unable to capitilize the "I" when I joined, but it's caused confusion ever since. I should have typed "Jim Inks", I suppose.
Shane Ireland just confirmed your comment. I am sorry for doubting you
Thanks for the link
Random irritation: Why does he keep saying Janis, surely its pronounced Yanus
The J is pronounced so......Jan-is is actually correct. I have heard Jane-us sometimes though.
Think January, which is the month named after him.
