And it’s gone. Hopefully folks who were interested were able to pick some up.
I’ll have to catch it on the next go. I missed it, and I’m tapped out from panic buying all of my favorites D&R blends anyway ?
Thankfully I was able to get 1 pound. I love VaOr blends and this one sounded unique.
Same here. I was very impressed by Rouxgaroux and am sure this blend will deliver as well.
I’ve resisted the D&R panic buying up to this point. There are other things I’ve been saving my pennies for.
Wow! Gone in 40 minutes and it's a completely unknown blend. FOMO is alive and well in the Pipe Smoking Community.
Picked up a pound myself.
Yes, I know, I know. I have no self control! ?
Actually, I only loaded up on two blends, because they happen to be favorites, so I guess that’s not too bad.
I don't get the D&R panic buying, at least at this point. The discontinued blends are pretty much gone and the other blends will continue to be available, at least for the next 9 months or so.
Grabbed a pound for giggles. I love VaOr and like what he does with Virginnies, so this should be a win. Good on him for selling out so quickly, but equally frustrating for those that couldn't jump.
I’m not sure whether those blends that are continuing will really be the same product. It’ll be another company making them. I figured I’d better get the ones I love while I can. I’m not getting “Irish Flaked” again! ?
But anyway, I like Virginia/Oriental blends, so I’ll have to try to snag some of this next time.
Would have liked to get 8oz. I'm not sure how I missed it as I was actually checking the status every 20-30mins or so. It sold out quick! If anyone wants to trade a 1 or 2oz sample for something that I might have, let me know.
Edit: It would sure be nice if they made a few more pounds of these limited batches when they're selling out in 20mins. I understand that scarcity sells right now, but it seems like they could have sold a lot more and it would have taken an hour instead of 20mins...
Alas - if it is available for more than 24 hours it gets labeled a non-limited release and is forever shunned by the pipe smoking community forever!
Also - I blame @jiminks for even putting this on my radar, and for my current sourness over having missed it.

Defeated by daylight saving confusion - 10am Eastern should have been 11am here.....
Bugger.
Bugger.
I had no interest in any of the discontinued blends, so there was no loss for me there. As far as the other blends go, I understand people’s desire to grab them now while they are still available. Who knows if quality will actually go downhill. Better to get what your interested in now and not chance getting a lesser version down the road.
I rarely get the Va/Oriental itch so I skipped out on this one. Trying to save up to pick up a few of the Cringle Flakes when the drop happens later this month. I usually prefer straight VA or VA/per blends. Been seriously cutting back on my tobacco buying but it's still a practice in self-restraint to not pick up more tobacco every time there is a drop.
Awww, go fry an egg!!!!!!Would have liked to get 8oz. I'm not sure how I missed it as I was actually checking the status every 20-30mins or so. It sold out quick! If anyone wants to trade a 1 or 2oz sample for something that I might have, let me know.

The same confusion happened last time with Rouxgaroux. If you try and add any to your cart it will let you know they are out of stock.
Yeah it shows out of stock when you go to ad some to your cart. Oh well
