Very happy to acquire two more tins of late 70s Dobies Four Square Curlies (and a couple stickers) from my pal Brandon.

Two tins of Cobblestone Hiking. Got the e mail that they were back in stock, I don't think I even got off my forklift at work to order it. Shoulda waited a day. Because Cobblestone blends went on sale at smokingpipes.com the next day. This happens every time I buy tobacco when it isn't around Christmas time or IPSD.

Where did you get it? I stopped by Ginja Kikisui and picked up some Tsuge blends. The guys there didn't speak English but were really helpful via Google translate. Japan has been my all time favorite country I have ever travelled to, talk about kind and respectable people

Nomura in Tokyo.

Yeah I want to go back real bad, its dope there.

Hiking sold out the same day so if you waited you would have missed out.

Oops, ordered some more goods for the cellar. Happy with this choice.

Took advantage of the Peterson sale at P&C with two tins each of Sherlock Holmes, Elizabethan, and Standard.

Geez it’s Christmas in March!
This griswold tobacco cutter came in today. Got an amazing deal and will be a future resto project.

That will be a fun project.

Just ordered some Sutliff Crumble Kake No. 5 Barrel Aged and a pound of Sutliff Black Cherry. Excited for the tin. Never tried rustica blends before.

Good stuff isn't it ! Pretty soon all your teeth will fall out, you’ll start stealing copper pipes and selling plasma to get more All jokes aside Exclusive and Father Dempsey have become my codger blends and I buy 4oz - 16oz a month of each because of it.

Exclusive is my favorite blend so far, I'll be interested to see how long this 8 oz lasts since I only smoke 2-3 bowls a day on average. I know I don't want to run out!

I've been happily smoking through a 10 year old tin of HotW. Checked my spreadsheet and discovered that I had no more. Ordered two more 50 gram tins from Storytellers' Pipe, and tossed in a couple of 50 gm tins of Old Gowrie while I was at it. Had some OG aging, but decided that two more tins were a Fine Idea.

I just wanted give a shout-out to Old_Newby. I bought a solid sampler kit from him at a very reasonable price with 100+ blends. I’ve been enjoying the hell out of it and it’s already helped me figure out a few blends that I’m not as interested in as I thought I would be, and it’s helped me find some new ones that I’m going to be putting directly in the cart next time. Thanks again Old_Newby! I’ll be sampling for quite some time. Definitely saved me money in the long run TAD in standby mode for a bit.

 

[AcesAndEights]

Gonna save a pinch or two of each to sample then squirrel away the rest in Mylar.

Let me know what you think of the Rouxgaroux. I have some on the way. I love their burleys, but haven’t tried much else from WCC.
