Monday, UPS app popped up a notice I had a package coming. Wracked my brain to figure out who I know from AL, and came up empty. Even after seeing "Chris Neal" on the return address when it just arrived, I'm still at a loss. Lol

Hopefully Chris doesn't take that personally.

May be because of my fried memory, or it someone I only know by username.

So, if Chris sees this and wants to out his username, or anyone who knows him can chime in, that would be great.

Package was:
2019 Carter Hall--Burley/Virginia
2016 Frog Morton's Cellar--Latakia/Virginia
2017 Escudo Navy Delux--Virginia/Perique
2016 Hearth and Home Viprati--Virginia/Perique/Burley
2016 Hearth and Home Anniversary Kake--Perique/Virginia

Thanks man, all stuff I have never tried, in fact Escudo is the only one I've even heard of, plus all are aged, so awesome bomb.

Thank you very much Chris. The gift is greatly appreciated and I can't wait to start trying them.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230818/a32e42a4a84e2bbdeca3367a413e9b50.jpg

Ah, very nice.
Don't think I've ever seen his real name before, but I certainly read a lot of his posts. Regardless of the bomb, as always come off as a truly nice and helpful guy.

Edit: I stand corrected, in a thread we all know about he recently started, I did see many people using his real name. My addled brain just never mated the two together. Bet I won't forget again.

Many thanks again Chris. Now I just need my jars and labels so I can organize everything in bags, and have a better spot to put your stuff than a tupperdor on my desk I'd like to do away with anyway, as I'm eying a 6 pipe, walnut stand, but have nowhere to put it until I can eliminate a tupperdor, or at least move one, depending on how many jars my 3 shelf unit will hold

Much appreciated. Will love trying some never even heard of and well aged Tobacco.
I'm sure it will be top notch stuff.

I friggin love tobacco!

Don’t worry Sean,
I wanted it to be a secret, at least till you got it. My wife accidentally forgot to put my username at the bottom of the list I sent.

Hope you enjoy them!

It was definitely a secret and a real surprise. All I knew was the city the UPS Store was in, and Box weight. Been stumped for a week, lol.

Even when I saw your name on the box I still couldn't put it together. Between 2 forums and the 70 people I live with, keeping up with names, especially with my memory issues, is pretty difficult

I suspect you're correct. I don't think I'll forget it now

Plus, now that I know it, if I use it when addressing him or referring to him, I'm more likely to remember, but I never know with my memory damage. Some things I remember no problem, others instantly vanish from my memory. It's very quirky.

I have a feeling I'll enjoy all of them. I have really broad tastes in Cigars, and now I'm discovering pipe tobacco too. Out of like 45 blends tried, only 5 I didn't care for. I think that's pretty goo.
