Hey Eggman,

You come up for air yet. Hoping the box takes a couple more days to get here. Starting to go back together with the bathroom. Don't need too much of a distraction until it is finished. Although, a little distraction would be nice 8) .

[eggman]

Puts: Dunhill Light Flake,McClellands St. James Woods

Takes: Wessex Red Virginia, SG Chocolate Flake

Sampled: Maltese Falcon, Four Seasons, Edgeworth and Blackcherry Twist (cut a piece for later tonight)


I also put a pouch of rum & maple from Altadis(sp). I figured since there were several otc tobaccos in the box I would add this one. I realy like this blend.


Will ship out tomorrow and post confirmation # when I get it.

Thanks Mike for putting this pass on. This has to be the best box pass I have been a part of. THe samples are great.

Enjoy jeepernick there are loads of great samples in the box. Definately try out the maltese falcon it is great.

 

[eggman]

Man TJ put some great blends in the box. The veermiester and ironsides are great blends.

 

[jhuggett]

Great pass egg!

I think TJ is scared to try any new blends, if he likes them then he has to stock up on them. Only so many coolers you can fit in a house. :lol:

The box hit over a three day weekend and we had out of towners. Most everything in it I have tried and pretty much have on hand.

My apologies to all for my apparent lack of inthusiasm. I will make it up by smoking all of the east coast box.

Jason, you are right. The reason I have 70 blends in the cellar is because of Mike.

My three puts are nicely aged and are marked for sampling so as to not be additions to Jim Bobs or Tin Bobs cellars. They are in cahoots.

[Mikem]

Great going TJ and Eggman. Great passes. It sounds like GLP's blends are going to be a hit.

 

[thomas james]

It's on the way to Puffville.

Happy puffin, Jim Bob.

:suspect:

I completely missed that one,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Tin Man was tin foiled.

[tin man]

It's not so bad, really . . .

 

[Puff Daddy]

OK!! It's here!

One note: The wessex burley slices tin was open and the flakes somewhat dry (perfect for smoking right now, actually). Each tin in the box was wrapped individually in paper to keep em from banging around in the box and it must have popped open as it fell right off when I unwrapped the paper. If nobody within the next couple of passes wants to claim it it might be good to turn it into a sampler tin.

I am bagging about 1 bowl each for the upcoming week's smoking of these samples:

Black Bayou Mist
Heinrich's
Maduro cut cake
Maltese falcon
Sail
G&H Scotch cake
C&D Epiphany


My takes:

C&D Purple Cow
Astley's 109


My puts are sealed tins of:

Escudo (2006)
Patriot flake (2006)
Frog Morton across the pond (50G from 2004)
Christmas Cheer 2005 (100G)

I'm also adding sample bags of Deacons Downfall from 2002 and Ashton Artisan blend.

Will pass the box off by hand to the rusty one (Tin Man) friday morning.

[tin man]

I have 7 tins of WBS over here. I will be happy to "put" one in so everyone else can sample the open one.

See you on friday :afro:
