Based on Lawrence's apparent love for it, I got a tin of Samuel Gawith Grousemoor to try. I popped the lid and it smell great! Kinda like SG Kendal Cream Flake.

I have many unopened tins, probably about 50, and about 10 pounds of bulk tobacco in jars... My most recent tin I opened is 1888 mid day. It's a nice aromatic, I like to smoke it on my way home from work... But sometimes it bites me???
Let it dry a wee bit and see if that cures the bite.

Always wanted to try Esoterica (Stonehaven, and Penzance). But I always miss out. By the time I find out they are in stock, I am usually too late. I checked FB and saw that Mars had a cancelled order 30 seconds from Mars posting. So I rush to do the order at Mars and WHAM, I got them both (8 oz each). I am so looking forward to trying these tobaccos.
I ordered some Boswell blends yesterday and I got...

Also I ordered 2oz of Edwards Supreme from edwardsfc(dot)com
Grabbed a tin of Samuel Gawith Bracken Flake (as usual, the tin note is great) and 3 oz (buy 2 get 1 free) Dunhill's Elizabethan Mixture (which is a great VaPer, but discontinued... I hope they start producing it again.)
-Jason
Middle Earth Sampler and 2oz. Morning Coffee from "Just for Him".
Just received my two tins of Squadron leader a day earlier than expected. Funny my priority mail package beat my 2 Day air one here. Now to give some of this a go.
These tobaccos smell amazing. :toast:
I feel sick seeing all that Esoterica, and it not being mine.

I wasted my money on Blue Mountain from McClelland yesterday.
Wasted? I really liked Black House... If they were both trying to emulate 759 they should be similar, no? What didn't you like about it?
-Jason
Went a little nuts today. Placed an order with Iwan Ries.
SG 1792
SG Grousemoor
SG Squadron Leader
McClelland 3 Oaks Syrian
Hoffman Distinguished Gentleman
The Mrs. never sees the AmEx bill. I just hope that I'm home when the UPS guy shows up.
Is the 3 Oaks Syrian something you've had before, papipeguy? If so, how is it?
-Jason

Jason, I have not had 3 Oaks Syrian before. I was tempted by the review here so I thought I'd try it. I'll let you know how I like it once it gets here.
Over the past two weeks, I bought...
1 tin of McClelland Blue Mountain
1 tin of Esoterica Pembroke
1 tin of Germain's Royal Jersey "Original Latakia Mixture"
Had a tin of 10 Russians and a tin of First Responder show up this week...
John: OK! If you like it, I may have to get some. BTW, I'm gearing up for a big TAD order and I'm going to get some C&D USS Mason and some Gentleman Caller if they have it.
-Jason
I swear this thread always starts something with me. I went out for lunch to the PO mails some stuff and decided to hit up one of the B&M's close by. Got a Tin of Peterson's Irish Oak and 2 oz. of "Harvey's Blend" No idea what it is, but I like the tin note and it's a decent smoke also.
-Jason
got a tin of riverboat gambler and a pouch of half and half
Know the feeling Jason

On it's way from pipesandcigars.com
8 ounces of H&H Black House
4 ounces of C&D Autumn Evening
4 ounces of McClellands Walnut Liqour
Ordered over the past couple of days...
From e-tailers:
4oz H&H Black House
4oz SPC Miss. River
4oz SPC Plum Pudding
10oz Three Oaks Syrian (I am literally smoking a tin of this every two days!)
I also have some Wilderness on order through my local B&M, but if it doesn't arrive by Wednesday, I'm going to tack that on with an etailer.
Today I received 2# Lane MV1000 (great smoke IMO)
and 2 - 50g Tins of McClelland Blue Mountain.
i went a little crazy Saturday at Carousel and The Wharf.
at Carousel I grabbed 8 ounces of Meditation, a tin of Sasieni Original Formula Balkan, and a bunch of pipe cleaners.
Then we went up to The Wharf and I picked up 8oz. of Billy Budd, 4oz. of Latakia, 8oz. of their English/Oriental, A tin of Blakeney's Best Latakia Flake, a tin of Butera's Royal Vintage Latakia No. 1, a tin of Sutliff Private Stock Great Outdoors, and a tin of Wellauer's Latakia.
I think that was everything.
One pound of Park Lanes Fireside
been holding my ground but then....
2-50g tins of Kendal Cream (thanks to a sampler...me LOVE it!)
1-8oz Plum Pudding (been drool'in to try)
2-50g tins of Peterson UF (one of my favs, haven't had in awhile..should be Goooood!)
UPS delivered today. First out of the box and in the pipe was Hofman'sDistinguished Gentleman. Not a bad smoke at all. Blue Mountain, SL, Grousemoor, and 1792 on deck.
I felt the same way, John. Distinguished Gentleman was decent but not something to write home about. I'm letting it age a bit before I pass judgment. The SG blends you listed are all ones I've tried.
SL was a nice Latakia blend, but there are better which are easier to find and cheaper to buy.
Grousemoor wasn't as much of an aromatic as I had been expecting and needs more bowls to figure out if I like it.
The 1792 is tasty but it knocked me on my @$$ with the Vitamin-N content. Smoke on a full stomach for sure!
I've been successful in staying my TAD attack, but this may put me over the edge. That and the fact that my wife gave me the green light to make an order big enough to get free shipping for our anniversary.
-Jason
CAO - Moontrace

Also got myself a Vinyl 7 pipe deluxe case. I was getting tired of keeping my pipes in socks when I travelled or went out. Went with vinyl because I'm a college kid, and there is no way I'm spending 90 dollars when I could spent 25 and put the 75 towards a pipe.
