They must rotate through batches, I imagine. My bag of Cabbies is also, like the tins, 339, while the box of St James is 334. Could end up like wine, "harrumph, the '24 was an awfully good year, what".

Never tried one either. It’s always on my list and when I go to buy them they’re sold out. So finally pulled the trigger, gonna sit on them till late October
@Tbaggins The Scottish Autumn Flake looks like it would suit the King's Clay!
Arrived yesterday:
Savinelli 140th Anniversary
C&D From Beyond
GLP Pennyfarthing
Five Brothers
2oz of G&H Dark Birdseye
Wanted to try some shag cuts and dark-fired blends, and the Savinelli just sounded interesting.
Now, which one to crack open first?

Mail lady strikes again...
A few to stock up on and few to try. One more thing to keep me off the mower.

Haha I bet it would! Really a shame it’s no longer produced, such a great tobacco!
I went to the Cargo Hold in Poulsbo, WA last weekend and picked up these legends. I've never tried any of them and can't wait to. Poulsbo is over an hour drive from my house so I've only been able to visit the Cargo Hold twice in the two years since I've been smoking a pipe. I still haven't finished any of the stuff I bought from the first trip, I'm not an a hurry to but I'll definitely wait until I've smoked all the VaPer jars in my current rotation before trying the Dorchester. I know Esoterica encourages people to smoke their tobacco fresh but I feel I need more experience with VaPers before I can fully appreciate something like Dorchester. I'm not interested in aging it because I don't have a second tin for comparison.
Just when i had the first order put away and labeled, the UPS man hit the steps. Busy, busy...the lawn can wait.
2 drops in one day, guess that makes this Thanksful Thursday!

So where would one find some Carolina Red Flake w/Perique? I’d like to get some to try, but I’ve only seen it on tinbids, and I don’t think I want it that bad :0Just when i had the first order put away and labeled, the UPS man hit the steps. Busy, busy...the lawn can wait.

If you are going to jar that HH up, dry it out a bit first. Lost 2lbs of mine to mold.
Well, that's a bummer. I did jar it up, but didn't let it dry any. Might have to let it air a bit.
Lots of nice hauls posted today, heres a little something of my own. Got some Foundation Cigars I wanted to try with wrapper leaf grown an hour north of me. A 4oz bag of Aged Maduro Cavendish I've been meaning to try, for smoking straight and some blends.
Chacom Nougat Billiard and a couple Spark Plugs.
Oh that’s right - unfortunately I’m subject to the 85% excise tax since they’re in Florida. I think I have enough other blends to enjoy, I’ll catch the next one
Incoming:
4oz - Wilkes #515
2 Tins - Solani Aged Burley Flake
Recently received two new bowls for my Falcon from Tobacco Pipes and I will be ordering another stem.

I would be very happy with that selection - it seems that the UK only g ets 40g pouches of Three Nuns ready rubbed and 25g pouches of Capstan likewise in ribbon cut. And we're supposed to be a civilised nation.
Thank ya! It’s got some great eyes on the other side. Gloss wouldn’t let me get a good pic.
I've just opened this up and found that the flakes are the length of the box! They fit into a 1 liter Kilner jar with 1/2" to spare. I am in awe.
