Think I have more nightcap than anything else now. Not a bad problem.

Spent a few days in VA/DC area and made a couple purchases from the local B&M shops. Hadn't tried any of these blends before and likely overpaid quite a bit, but you got to pay for the ability to come in and smoke a pipe in a nice environment. 
2018 Artisans claimed to have Syrian lat.

14oz can of Prince Albert.
I've always wanted to try it but never got around to it.
I'm waiting for 2024 Cringle Flake to drop.

"Claimed" is right. I have my doubts. But who knows.
Bought from a reputable dealer labeling it as Syrian. I agree though, how much Syrian was going in this blend in 2018? My guess is a pinch with a healthy dose of Cyprian and marketed as Syrian. I like artisans anyways so it’s not a loss to me.
It would be nice if there was a way to find out the percentage. I found the same tin from 2013 and would like to know how much Syrian is actually in it. I was thinking I would crack it at the next local pipe club meeting.
Picked up a few things while I was out yesterday.

Just jarred up a pound of Hearth and Home - Ten to Midnight. It's a crumbly blend, but I got a picture of these nice slices before I filled my jars.
Common problem.Was going to order right after Thanksgiving week, but decided to do it now and save a whole $5 from SP. This is the first time in several years that I actually ordered during a sale as invariably SP holds a sale within a week of my purchase. In fact, it's so reliable of a pattern I should post on here a sale is coming soon as I just ordered.
I just ordered 3lbs of Match Victorian last week literally the night before TPcom did 15% off.
I was going to call and whine, then I realized the discount would’ve put me under free shipping and it would’ve been moot.
Y’all may or may not get a pic of the bags tomorrow before they get tossed in the closet
Was able to score a few tins online and they showed up in the mail today. 
Gotta few pouches of standard OTC's from Spain, St Bruno and Amsterdamer blau by Barens
Was going to hold off on HU products but I ended up buying two lots. Here’s the first. This really is a disorder
I'm not aware of a cure either. More cowbell?Was going to hold off on HU products but I ended up buying two lots. Here’s the first. This really is a disorder
I believe cowbell is the cure for a fever. Not sure of its effectiveness on disorders. Pretty sure we’re all screwed.
I know that's right!
