I hope you enjoy! I was struggling trying to think of what was weird enough! I also saw you liked rum, so I hope you enjoy that Blockade Runner, I know I do.My Secret Santa gift arrived today! I couldn't think of something specific to request that wouldn't overlap my cellarful of plain-vanilla blends, so I requested "weird." I can't wait to try these. Thank you, @Nomadorb !

There is a funny smell coming from it!
so now the question is do I let it ferment till Christmas or open it now and let it air out!

Hey! You’re from New Haven?! I stay at my aunts in Chesterfield all the time! Small world.View attachment 184444
Package on the way. The postal clerk asked why it was ticking, and I told her it's for a hobby. Let the frivolity begin!
So, I may have made a mistake. Maybe I didn’t read carefully, but I did not reveal who I was in the package I sent. Was I supposed to do that? I know it arrived at the guys house about an hour ago.
I received a very good sized box from my SS today. I haven’t opened it yet - I’m going to let the anticipation build a bit more.
I got my shipment sent off this evening. In years past I have packed the box immediately after getting my mark and then let it sit on the kitchen counter for 3 weeks. No more!
My victim has discussed interest in some blends that I happen to have, so I feel excited that I’ve (hopefully) done well this year. The generosity of the packages I’ve received in past years has definitely inspired me to throw in a couple extra goodies. I know how pleasantly surprised I’ve been when receiving them. The anticipation of waiting for someone to open a gift you’re excited to give is a special joy all its own.
Ho-Ho-Ho!

It's supposed to be "Secret Santa" not "Lets Pretend We Are Being Sneaky Santa" lol.
I'm not good with secrets.
I asked Mike Thompson specifically about this.Two words... SECRET Santa.
His reply was "It can be as secret as you'd like, or as public as you'd like. It is entirely up to you."

Well, I let the person I sent the gift box too know who I am.
I'll leave it up to them whether or not they want to share that info.

I haven’t opened it yet but I saw your name on the package - and the shipping weight!!! I hope it’s not a box of coal lol.
Thank you Monty I’ll post again when I’ve opened my package.
Mrs Clause told me she thinks you'll be pleased, and I trust her... so happy days my friend!
If my Secret Santa mailed a pkg from clearwater FL the usps tracking says delivered but there is nothing in my mailbox 
. I personally did not order anything from FLA and i fear it may be my santa gift. I have a secure box with a key so I will try to catch my postal person tomorrow. Maybe they put it in a neighbor’s accidentally or maybe someone else shipped me something from FL.

I’m sure I will be pleased and thank you again. I hope you don’t mind waiting for me to open it? It doesn’t feel like Christmas around here yet - no tree or decorations yet. Also I know for sure your gift will be the only pipe related one I receive this holiday season
