A question about Erinmore Flake..even though it is listed as an aromatic, it doesn't seem that it is to me...and incredibly smooth flake.
A question...unlike the round tins, mine are older when they were square...from Tobaccoreviews:

Yo trai
My buds who puffed the old Erinmore Flake do feel the apricot topping was toned way down. Even to the point that some, like you, feel it is no longer aromatic. I do pick up the fruit in the tin note, not so much in the puffing. The topping probably contributes to the smoothness.

In light of that, do you think that the STG blend is an improvement? (to your palate) |

I get an email every day with the sale, today was 25% off "Best of Denmark" (Orlick, Ernimore, Escudo,Balkan Sasieni) , they also post it on Facebook. *edit, sorry what I described was the first post, I must be tired. I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer sometimes, but normally not THAT bad...geesh.... |

If you are on the email list you should get what I think will be daily updates this week. I don't honk you can find them otherwise, unless you are on Facebook.

I am not getting the emails - even sent a ticket in and they say I am on the list. Oh well. Even on facebook it is difficult to find them. You would think they would just add a link on the website and make it easy for us old people. Shame really.

They probably only had 1 of each in stock!   . Seems like they have a lot of items out of stock and/or back ordered lately. |

That 20% off sale appears to be stackable. For example, they're having a 5-for-$24.99 Build Your Own Pouch Combo www.pipesandcigars.com/p/BYOCP/2000003/?slide=3&slide=3With sale it's $18.75. I'm sitting on these, deciding on whether or not I should pull the trigger. Yes, folks, that's CBG at the top! 1 x Captain Black Grape 1.5 Ounce Pouch 1 x Amphora Black Cavendish 1.75 Ounce Pouch 1 x Amphora Full Aroma 1.75 Ounce Pouch 1 x Peterson Wild Atlantic 1.42 Ounce Pouch 1 x Missouri Meerschaum American Patriot 1.5 Ounce Pouch |

Just ordered four 1.75oz tins of OGC and two 3.5oz tins of Dark Star. With shipping it was just under $50. The discount code worked fine. The OGC was about $4/tin before shipping was applied. Can't beat that!

I just ordered a few minutes ago and got one - looks like they're still available. By the way, you get an additional 20% off the Danish tin sale which are already 25% off. That means Sasieni is $4.26, OGS is $4.45, and Escudo is $6.29. And then there's this www.pipesandcigars.com/p/toeenglish/2000005/ where you choose 5 tins and get a free cheap pipe, cleaners, and Czech tool. I got H&H Cerberus, Seattle Pipe Club Yakima Valley, Murray's 1A Linfield, John Cotton's No. 3, and Gurkha Urban Legend.... but instead of it coming out at 20% off (which would be $39.96), it was $30.87. No idea why but to quote Iggy Pop, I ain't complainin'. They have aro versions, too, but they're not as good of a selection. |

I was really tempted by the Leccia Black coronas for $40 after discount, but looked at how many cigars I have and slapped my own wrist. For some reason I was able to rationalize it with pipe tobacco, though.  |

LOL ... just the opposite for me. I couldn't justify any more pipe tobacco but am rolling my own cigars anytime I want one and needed back-up. |

So far, not all the blends have been priced down. I have actually had more luck with Low Country vs Lane. I have actually busted my budget this month on my 20% day.

If one were to stock up (and not sample) then they'd get the same price (1.25 for 4+ ounces). Looks like 20% off was the best deal. Congrats to those who got it.

I spent my budget before the 'free box' email came. But I got some GREAT deals. Happy customer here.
