Just posted on Glynn Quelch's Facebook page:
Its been well over a year since GQ Blends stopped being produced. As much as i love having my hands in a bowl of tobacco mixing it up, its something i can no longer do (this part hasn't changed).
So rather than me having to scrape black cavendish from under my nails, why not experience all the fun for yourselves!
GQ Tobaccos will soon be selling "Blend It Yourself Kits" of many of the GQ Blends range. The tobacco will come packed inside the same 50g pouches i sold the blends in and inside you will get several packs of tobaccos. All you need to do is; * Empty them out into a mixing bowl * Mix it * Mix it some more * Then a bit more * Finally put back in the large pouch to sit and marry for a few weeks * Smoke it, cellar it, trade and just don't eat it (tobacco isn't nice to eat, trust me!)
Eventually we plan on bringing back most of the blends, but logistically its not doable from the word go, so the first blends to be re-released are as follows
Breakfast Blend Chocolate & Vanilla Askwith Mixture (you can always make your own press!) Swamp Flower Clementines Nip
We are hoping these will be on sale early to mid next week. I will let you all know as soon as they are on GQTobaccos.com for purchase.

While great news indeed, but he doesn't mention US customers. Skuttlebutt is shipping to US is still a no from GQ unless you use alternate methods. One of the last beauties from his press now sits in my cellar.

That is great news, love me some BurPer Kake! Sadly, Glynn no longer has his press, so Burper Mixture may be available for us to kake in our own presses. He did make the GQT kakes in a home-made simple press made of boards and tightening bolts, nothing more really... highly effective without the PSI tonnage, obviously not required.

Didn't SP do something similar with their blending kits a year ago or so?

This is outstanding news! I miss dealing with Glynn, a great guy all around. BUT, last time I checked he could not ship any longer to the USA. Hope a private email from me does the trick. THANKS MUCH FOR POSTING
PS I know Glynn is no longer @ GQ and the website still states they can no longer ship tobacco out of the UK. So, I sent a private message through their website. Hopefully it will be good news.

My GQT Mixtures arrived today!!! Very Very Coooool!!!! Extremely simple to prepare... gonna let the mixture marry in the jar for a few months and then will press into a dense kake for another month or so. Glynn Quelch has started an anti nanny state New World Revolution, and we are soldiering the battle front!!!
