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.

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. :)

Never heard of Georgetown before, they certainly have some really nice artwork on their blends.

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. :LOL:
Common problem.
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😉
