Just found a box and opened it up. My Santa hit the nail on the head. Everything was new to me and thats what I like. Always wanted to try country squires and never had a Christmas smoke so the Cringle Flake is awesome!! I do find the generosity to be humbling. Nothing but good people in this forum.

I have received and opened my gift from Secret Santa.
Mahalo for your Generosity, all blends I have not tried and exited to give a go. Your note was icing on this cake.
Aloha,

Thank you Secret Santa - I received a package containing two wonderful tobaccos and a Christmas Greeting!

I was able to pick up my Secret Santa gift today. Wow, what a kind and generous gift. Three blends that are new to me and a Peterson 2022 Christmas pipe, a 6 straight billiard...one of my favorite shapes.

Chris, thank you so much. I will think of you every time I smoke it.
Wishing you and your family a wonderful joyous Christmas.

It’s the unwrapping that counts!

My gift arrived earlier today and I couldn't resist the temptation to see what Santa brought me. He didn't disappoint. Thank you Santa! Have yet to try 2 out of 3 of these. I am sure I will enjoy them in my new cob.

I do enjoy a bit of country lawyer from time to time.

Received a mystery present from Elmer J Fudd, c/o Acme Xmas Gifts Inc today.
I did the right thing and rolled out for a quick perimeter check, to ensure no one was going to drop an anvil on my head. After establishing security, I hit the box with some Expray. No A,B or nitrates based color on the swabs, so I carefully opened it.
Turns out that my extremely clever Secret Santa has gifted me with a couple of lovely tins (I've not tried either of these blends yet, and I'm stoked!), a really solid tamper, and a few things that are maybe philtpads...or a delivery system for anthrax. Very sus.
Either way, I've not been hit by a train, an anvil, a blunderbuss or tnt, so I think I won this round!

Thanks Fudd, you are a real champ. Merry Christmas!

EDIT:
Upon further review and a glance at the date codes, these tins have several years on them. Thanks Fudd, these tins, (like you), are
