Awesome glad you liked it. Someone on the a pipe forum put up 3 tins of Pelican for $50 each and I missed it by 30 seconds .. stuff goes for 450+ on the secondary market .. people are idiots.
Had some Sutliff 507C tonight a couple bowls to try it to see if I want to go with the 5lb brick to cellar, I will try it again in the morning before deciding.
I also got some Old Dark Fired from 2018, about a pound of it in a big lot of tobaccos, turns out i hate the stuff, tastes like a freaking camp fire but i guess that's why people like it. If anyone is interested in trying it let me know.
I also experienced my first 'sour' pipe tonight, really disgusting, ruined the rest of the night's smoking for me, I was smoking some Mac Baren Navy Flake and it didn't taste right then everything was sour and gross, so I broke out the 151 and cotton balls (instead of salt) and have it sitting, i'll swap them out in the morning, i also did a good cleaning on the stem. From now on every estate pipe i buy is getting the alcohol treatment wether i think it needs it or not.
