Your Latest Tobacco Purchase

[MacMarty89]

Title edited. Only JimInks gets to use ***.

Greetings,

I have not seen a dedicated thread for this. I’m sure many of my fellow pipe smokers acquire new tobacco regularly. This thread will serve this purpose: showing your latest tobacco purchases. It will perhaps be an incentive to post a review afterwards or to pick up some new tobacco that you haven’t tried before.

My latest smoking candy for today:

Mac Baren Classic Flake (50g)

Mac Baren HH Pure Virginia (50g)

Mac Baren Navy Flake (50g)

Orlik Golden Sliced (100g)

Love it! Great choices.

There is an ongoing thread for this in the Pipe Tobacco Discussion section called Recent TAD Pickups. Usually it's easy to spot (I post there when TAD gets the better of me), but there hasn't been a posting there in over a week, which for this crew here, is VERY strange. Shame on us! We should be stocking for the tobaccopolypse or something...

Finally got my hands on one of these. From 2006. Getting ready to crack it now. How did you like it?

We haven’t posted because all our purchases have been the same over the last week! Uno, St. Espresso, Palmetto Balkan… And this week we’ll all show off our Simply Orange and Hoghead! ?

Wait, are you getting my credit card statements?

Ah, well that title is not so obvious. I couldn’t find anything. What does TAD stand for then?

Nope, never heard of it.
Denial is the first step to recovery ?

I saw the price for Hoghead and I think it's going to be a hard pass for me. If it's a regular blend I may pick some up on sale.

It's the first step to a lot of things.

Yup, I see it a lot these days

Some Lane 1-Q and a mix of the SPC plum pudding, with a few random tins thrown in.

 

[Home Brewing Piper]

Just picked up a tin of Squadron Leader from SP. Have not opened it yet.

 

[VirginiaMan]

Picked up a pound of WCC simply orange, and 5 tins of SPC Hogshead.

 

[AcesAndEights]

I grabbed a few ounces of Simply Orange and two tins of Vauen Virginia No. 14. Should be here today. Also just placed an order for a couple tins of Marlin’s Flake from SP this morning.

I've reached a point where I don't need any tobacco as I have more than enough to last me until I go to the happy hunting ground.

I’m still firmly in the “OMG I GOTTA TRY IT ALL” phase. I buy two or three tins of all sorts of random stuff then squirrel it away. I’m gonna be ‘trying’ stuff for the next decade, I swear! ??‍

 

[pipesandscotch]

Just got some WCCC Simply Orange, The Country Squire Tidewater, and Hunting Creek.

Yeah, well past “need” here too. Plenty I want to try though.
