Yeah, you're probably just going to see the usual sales. Actually, if no one announces they're going to pick up the line (like, pronto), it'll go in a whole new direction. Dunhill isn't a name that screams "closeout prices to clear out old stock." More like "the end of an era, premium prices...

5110 is a fine smoke...kind of like FM but beefed up. I can't understand any comparisons to Nightcap, though...NC has a fair bit of Perique in it, while there's none in the 5110. YMMV, I suppose, but that threw me.

P.M. Pipe or Avenue P.M. (or whatever they're calling it these days).

It's been a Toque Lime Toast kinda day for me.

You either love the South African snuffs or hate them, it seems. I'm on your side, though...really pungent with a nice kick.

At work: McChrystals Hops. At home: Old Mill Butternut and Open Source Project Batch #3.

Don't freeze it, don't cook it. Manage that and you'll be ok. Sure - consistent, moderate temps are better for the long run, but it's not going to destroy the leaf. As you're already aware of the problems rapid fluctuations in temp/relative humidity can create with sealed tins, I don't think...

I can't believe anyone would ever fall for these things. In fact, I was just discussing how gullible some people can be with this Nigerian prince I've been talking to lately...

Trivial, and amusing...but karma is a nasty lady and she's punched me square in the face. My wife isn't exactly technologically savvy. My mother-in-law is technologically comatose. I've been training people on our database system at work all week, and spent the last half-hour having a good...

The man is/was a legend. Respect.

Cup O' Joes Yeti Flake in a Nording bent billiard.

OG and HoW will be fine, as will many of the "XYZ Mixtures." They've been around for a long, long time and will be grandfathered in on the new regs. There have been periods where they were hard to get and in low supply, but I'm 99% certain they were never discontinued and then subsequently...

McC Brindle Flake in a Todd Harris smooth bent bulldog. Delicious.

I agree. Vacuum sealed tins are usually fine, square tins can be problematic, round screw-top tins can be somewhere in between. Anything that comes in a bag or pouch gets tossed in glass as soon as I get it - better safe than sorry (and like Coyote said...glass jars are pretty inexpensive -...

I'll be loading up on Old Joe Krantz, Billy Budd, and Poplar Camp. I have plenty of each on hand, but it never hurts to lay down some extra bulk of your favorites! Regarding the mold: I know they had issues with some of the small batch stuff, but what's the full story? Is there something of...

For this with cellars that they'very built up over time: how do you keep your stash organized? I've been organizing based on blender or theme (theme meaning, for example, all of the Christmas Cheers, Pipe Club Blends, show blends, etc that I bought an extra tin of solely to keep as part of a...

I LOVE GregorIan chants, and I REALLY love the 4-part harmonies from the Renaissance, too. I got a lot of funny looks I college, but there was a period where I listened to the Tallis Scholars all the time.

Sorry that it all went down the way it did, but very glad to hear your wife will be keeping you in line! Keep yourself well, Oak!

Congrats to you! And admiration, too - the stress and pressure of that kind of job would do me in (heck, the stress and pressure of getting the degrees and licenses required to HAVE that kind of a job would probably do me in!).

Ah, yeah - misread that. SP it is (I'm not in the market for the Dunhills at P&C). I'll say it again, though...I have no good reason to avoid P&C in particular. I've been a customer for a long time, and they've always done right by me, even after the ownership/management changes. I know a...
