So I decided to leave the question of whether or not to open the box early up to chance; heads I open it now, tails I wait until Christmas. Seven flips later the votes were in: open it now.
My Secret Santa hit it out of the park. Two tobaccos I love (the Astley’s 44 & Dobie’s Orange Four Square), and two I’ve been meaning to try for a long while (Russ’s Arcadian Gold and GLP’s Blackpoint). Plus a new pipe to smoke them in. I love old American wood and my SS gave me a beautiful Kaywoodie Silhouette with an amazing blast. Thank you SS, a generous package much appreciated!
