I grabbed two to pad what I already have in the cellar. I absolutely love this stuff. I have mine in mylar.

I picked up a tin for shis and giggles at my local B&M. I've never tried it, but it looked interesting.
That's just beautiful. I jarred one last year and it didn't last. I have no control when it comes to this stuff.
Few bits and pieces for the cellar and some for now as well.
Oops, I did it again!
Estate pipe from Mkelaw Pipes a Svendborg Padouk. It looks like a nifty pipe with a Canadian kind of vibe to it.
Svendborg Padouk Filter Pipe - SOLD - https://mkelaw-pipes.com/the-pipes-1/ols/products/svendborg-padouk-filter-pipe
I also ordered 4oz of Country Squire Lamb & Jam limited release.

A few familiar favorites and some new ones to try! I got the Ready Rubbed Match because I doubt I'll ever get my hands on the Edgeworth original and @JimInks said in his review that it's very close to the original. I'm also really excited about the stout Concerto blend!
Mail call!
I think the 4oz I got last of GH&Co Dark Birds Eye will be a blend I can “love long time,” so I was torn between wiring for IPD sales and risk it going out of stock.
I had a new guy discount still at SPcom, so I grabbed a pound now, along with a 2oz sample of 507-S, and a couple more tins of PipeForce VI to round out the free shipping.
….an observant reader may also spot a small but interesting sample that found its way from the east coast to my mailbox from yet another awesome forum member.
One more thing, do these freebie tins from Laudisi/GH&Co do ok for storage (not cellaring, but grab and go for a couple ounces over a few weeks)?

Picked up a Tin of Presbyterian Ordained and a Tin of Capt.Earle’s Diamond Head with a new Castello.
Bro, you're gonna be the @CastelloKing!!
These little Chubby KK’s have been great. Long ways to go to take the throne
but they have grown on me.Had a big week this week. First my smokingpipes order:
Then I walked into my B&M and saw they had some Germains so I got this:
If you haven't tried Drucquer&Sons Levant yet and like a full English, it is totally worth trying. Charing Cross is one of my favorite oriental forward blends, and I felt Westminster, Odyssey, and Abingdon were worth a go. The Union Square is to be enjoyed in a few years from now. And as for the Esotericas/Germains I could've gotten a few more, but really wanted to try Plum Cake the most and already I love Margate.
