A couple tins of MM Luminaire and a Charles Towne Landing cob. The pipe is the lizard's fault and the tobacco is . . . well, somebody around here keeps mentioning it. Can't remember who. Herb, maybe?

I have 4-3.5oz tins of Jock's Mixture, by Rattray's, on the way and it's due tomorrow. The aforementioned baccy is from Iwan Ries in Chicago. Some people don't like their customer service, but I've had only positive experiences. IR has a good selection of merchandise, as well as fair prices. I really enjoy Jock's Blend. JB is mostly a Virginia with some English Cavendish and a condimental amount of Latakia. Really good, I say. The Rattray's is here!! It's a day early too. 👌 |

I take my tobacco like I take my food, mostly savoury, but sometimes sweet, Muttnchop swayed me on this one, hopefully, it hits the sweet spot! |

That guy probably made more pipe smokers than anyone since Jeremy Brett.
Oh, and I definitely failed to mention all the Rattray's blends. I wish those were available here more than a couple times a year.

Oops. This should've been in your over-the-pond thread. |

I know someone who thinks Eileen’s Dream is the ultimate tobacco, it seems like he smokes a tin each week. I have some, but I’ve never gotten around to trying it. |

Hiland’s cigars seems to have Rattray’s more often in stock than anyone else. www.hilandscigars.com/shop/pipes-tobacco/tobaccos/ |

Well, I'm a ninny. The package CrustyCat so kindly sent me arrived in the mail just now, and now I remember who it was who kept talking about Luminaire.  What a dingus I am.
Thanks for the Luminaire and the 100g tin of OGS you "tossed in", Kevin! Both are much appreciated!

It's nice, but it doesn't seem to call me back to smoke another bowl. Not a thing wrong with it. |

My supply of Belgian chocolate to get me through to autumn. They won't ship if it's going to be 90 degrees anywhere between them and you, which is pretty much May through September around here.

My tin of Seattle Pipe Club Rum Vanilla. That was fast. You guys should be using Wilke.

But they carry all kinds of tobacco besides their own blends and the service is excellent. It just let me add #10 to my cart. It's not one of my favorites though. |

I have a lot of 2016 Chatham Manor and Prince Andrew because, back in the good old days of 2016, 14oz tubs were $25 and I took good advantage of a buy 2 get 1 free (no limit) sale at P&C. 😎 |
