I really should quit buying tobacco, but I won’t. I’ll probably grab a few of these.

Looks pretty ritzy! It seems like flakes and cakes are definitely having their moment in the sun.

Looks delicious. I haven't tried the original yet and must admit that I do not have a tin in my cellar either.

Presbyterian is something that I've always wanted to try, but think that I'll have to pass on this. It gets great reviews, but Sutliff Presbyterian match gets the same high marks.

It sounds like an aromatic that I may enjoy.
Might grab a few.

It would just be another one that sits in the cellar that I "bought to try." Just like the first tin of Presbyterian I got 3 or 4 years ago... and about 30 other different tins.
This one does sound pretty good though.

I forgot...Arizona doesn't change time...half the year the MST people get it right, the other half the year the people on PDT get it right.
It is time to retire the DST.

I'm hoping that it'll be available in the UK. Presbyterian mixture isn't anymore, but then again I'm not sure it's getting produced anymore (I could be wrong).

Looks like an interesting flake. It is now available to buy.

I got the "out of stock" message on Cup o' Joes last night, but figured it was because the release wasn't until midnight. I'm finding it showing as in stock on both sites as of now.

It is slightly oriental-forward (so if you like the "sour" part of sweet and sour--you will like this). And the latakia is minimal (if there is any at all actually in it). I find it interesting that a few years ago it was unavailable for a period of time and folks lamented its lack of availability and loudly sang its praises--and rejoiced enthusiastically when it was suddenly in stock at most retailers again. It seems absence does, indeed, make the heart grow fonder.  |

I remember one time they strapped on a customs charge around £250. But thanks anyway. There are plenty of Germains and SG GH here to keep me happy. There's Condor as well, but I can't stand that stuff. |

I grabbed two tins and...a pipe. I wasn't even thinking about a pipe. What is wrong with me. I desperately need another pipe stand.

It's a subtle, well-balanced English blend, well worth a try in my opinion. Easy to pack, light, and keep lit, nothing obtrusive about it at all, just a very pleasant flavor that doesn't wear out its welcome. It's not a regular resident in my cellar, but when I pick up a tin I always enjoy it. It's one of my favorites (the original Presbyterian). It is slightly oriental-forward (so if you like the "sour" part of sweet and sour--you will like this). And the latakia is minimal (if there is any at all actually in it). I find it interesting that a few years ago it was unavailable for a period of time and folks lamented its lack of availability and loudly sang its praises--and rejoiced enthusiastically when it was suddenly in stock at most retailers again. It seems absence does, indeed, make the heart grow fonder. Thanks guys. I also ordered some Folklore, which sounds right up my alley. |
