@Briar Lee, thank you for posting this. I'm on the hunt for it but failing so far. I called every store in Texas on the Smoker Friendly website and sadly, no one has, "Sweet Natural."
I called the store you mentioned in MO and they have it in stock now but don't ship here (I'm in Texas, but it sounded like they don't do any mail order sales--certainly not out of state).
I called Sutliff and the cust. rep., Sharon said it may be discontinued. She cant find it anywhere. She did find a VaBur blend called, "Natural," for Super Value doesn't know if it's an equivalent -- it's a cavendish VaBur. Smoking Pipes lists it as:
"Super Value: Natural Cavendish 12oz Pipe Tobacco
Product Number: 003-706-0017"
Any clue how a motivated codger in East Texas might get some, or perhaps any thoughts on whether SP's iteration is an equivalent?
Either way, thanks for sharing this and so many other great posts! I enjoy reading your insights and recollections of you family's lineage and history there in MO (especially those snippets from memory of family experiences and anecdotes). Some remind me of mine here in Hopkins County, TX where we only go back 5 generations, which includes our child of course
.
Thanks again.
kindly,
Mike
p.s. I gotta post a new photo, no beard and hair's short again after a two year "walk on the wild side"-- so if your passing through, pm me and dinner's on us--but don't look for a shaggy bearded old guy!
