Smoker's Haven Exotique

[docrameous]

I was given a small sample of Smokers Haven Exotique and wow, it is fantastic.

Doing some digging around, I have not been able to find it for sale online. Has this gone the way of extinction like the McClelland blends?

If so, I don't have anything like this in my cellar, so I am open to suggestions to blends that are similar.

Smokers Haven blends are Germain manufactered from my understanding. There has typically been a long wait period between batches. The fact that you can't find any is pretty much standard operating procedure. Whenever a new batch is released it sells fast. Not quite a fast as Esoterica maybe but still pretty fast.

I think Premal often takes prepaid advance orders when he knows a shipment is coming. It's been a successful way of letting customers know that they've locked in their tobacco. Sometimes the wait is a little unpredictable. Germain doesn't produce to a precise timetable, and once the stuff is in the States it takes a while for Premal to box up and ship the orders. But I've done it and been happy with the result.

Premal's last batch was $22 a tin. Still sells out quick.
