Was browsing the SG tins on smokingpipes.com and noticed St. James flake along with some other SG blends are no longer listed. Anybody have any details on this?
St. James Flake Removed from Smokingpipes.com?

Probably sold out. I’m looking for boxes of it and Kendal plug, but tins still available on iwan ries! Best of luck!
When SP pulls tobacco from the search, in the past it means it has been discontinued or no longer available through them....damn on SJF.
I just bought a box from Tobaccopipes. Calm down
So happy I cellared when I did. So so happy.
Iwan Ries wants to charge me $48 to ship 1 tin USPS Priority Mail to Hawaii!
A USPS Priority Mail package this size only costs around $6-$7 to ship.
I’m going to call them, and ask them what’s up with this nonsense.
LePipe.it just shipped me last month 2 pipes from Italy using FedEx Express for only $17 USD.
Seriously if this how a company is going to operate with extreme prices for shipping like this, people should not support them! ?

There’s no way SJF is discontinued, it has to be one of their most popular blends, that would be foolish !
What happened to that Aloha spirit?
Seriously though, that does seem like a lot of money for shipping. Have you called them to ask for an explanation?
I doubt that SP.com has discontinued selling St. James Flake. It is an extremely popular blend & there has been no notification that SG has discontinued it. Rest easy it’s a blend that can be found elsewhere until SP.com gets it back on line.
I have no personal knowledge of anything...I just prefer to be reasonable & optimistic bout one of my favorite retailers and blends. Give them a call and see what’s going on...I’m sure the answer is quite simple. ?

️It's back in the search bar!! (Not in stock). Must have been a computer malfunction.

That's a real shame but the bit at the end about maybe licensing it to sell worldwide sounds interesting.Unrelated but kind of related...

Yes I am hopeful they can get it distributed far and wide.
Sometimes I wish vendors would just show what is in stock. I use Tubotin on occasion to save time to look for stuff through major retailers.
Turbotin is a search tool. Type in what you're looking for and it will list vendors, their price and availability. You can filter the search to show in stock only. They don't cover all retailers but the major one's are represented. It is updated frequently each day.
