TAD Acquisitions 2025

[Christos D. Tsatsaronis]

4 packs of the mighty, the glorious Condor RR arrived right at my doorstep thanks to the nobble actions of the good man from Spain @JOHN72 .
I'll smoke them in time to John's and his family's good health!

That ACP is just so good. So easy going. Have you tried Quint’s Own and Delixe Crumb Cut? Also excellent and in a similar genre.
I love what Ernie does.

Just finishing a bowl of the Waltham- delicious, rich, smooth Burley with some Va.
thinking about picking up some more of it. Might as well get a sample of the two you mentioned

Add Original Crumb Cut to that. You won't regret it.

Couldn’t find it on their web site. Is it out of production?

It's one of their regular offerings. Should be back soon, I hope.

Received my end of a forum member trade. 7 tins of the magic weed! Thank you, Sir!

Yes, these cabinets go 1 foot deep.
No, those tins on the left aren't all CAO Cherrybomb... Yes, they are almost half Magnum Opus and Bengal Slices..
Yes, they were mostly filled in the last 2 months.
No, they still don't represent more than 1/4 of my panic buying (the rest mostly Sutliff bulk pounds/KBV)
Yes, I have a mental disorder.
No, I'm not greedy.. most of the tin dates are from 2023 and I gotta pay credit card debt just like anyone else.
Yes, I definitely have a mental disorder.
No, my gf would still not leave me even if she knew how bad it was (God knows why..)
Yes, this is a cry for help...

 

[eljimmy]

[coming to_falling too]

Glad it’s not just me

I just received a couple more pounds of Sutliff Match Victorian, from TPcom.
Of interesting note:
-the (what I’ve come to believe are) date codes have moved to top right of label, and the SKU is now at top left. I find it odd that they changed the label on a blend that is being discontinued very soon.
-there’s moisture condensate in the bags.
-I paid for economy shipping, and they shipped priority. Ordered placed Wed ~10:45am and was in my mailbox in under 50hrs.

Just picked up a couple of tins of Seattle Pipe Club blends I'm interested in trying before they possibly go bye bye. 2 tins each of Virginia Jazz, Down Yonder, and Galloping Gertie, plus a soul thrilling restock of pipe cleaners.

Honest question, do you find the quality of theirs to be better than the Peterson/Dunhill Elizabethan or is it just a price thing? I've never tried it but I've seen this (anecdotally) seems to be one of their most popular bulks/matches... just wondered why when the "original" is still readily available...

It's based on the Murray's version, not the STG version, so the profile is a bit different.

Had the day off while the wife had to clock in. Took advantage of a mostly empty house and decided to process the last 2 orders that have came in a little while ago. Everything added to my spread sheet, labels printed, and most of the bulk stuff was sealed in mylar bags for a nice deep sleep.

My strategy of complete voting allegiance to HH Latakia Flake in the Battle of the Blends contest has paid off.

1x 1 lb. HH Latakia Flake
5x BJ Long Pipecleaners

Gotta get that free shipping!
