I was just put back a step a few minutes ago. When I was "organizing" some boxes, I opened up a box I thought has 45's for the jukebox and realized it was all pipe tobacco....and good tobaccos at that.How does one put these aside and not remember?
Found: Couple tins of Three Nuns & Orlik Golden Sliced, a handful of 2 oz. tins of Seattle Pipe Club Decption Pass & Seattle Evening along with 8 oz. tins of Mississippi River & Plum Pudding.
The cappers were 8 oz. bags of Penzance & And So To Bed. Those had me so pissed when I bought them I am really shocked that I forgot about 'em. I had purchased them for someone (family member) who "had" to have them but had to get them on the sly so as not to get caught spending money...when when it came time to pay...he backed out.

Great find! Like finding money in a jacket pocket; only better. How long has it been lost?

Better than Christmas! Nice
Couple of things I've learned. I like good Bourbon and hate wet toilet paper.

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Man, what a find! I've got a Ser Jacopo billiard around here somewhere that I misplaced in the last move that I'm hoping to find someday.

It was in May of 2014 that it happened. He also wanted Monte & Cohiba Gran Reservas about the same time....same results....but I smoked most of the cigars and donated two for a charity auction.

Nice find!
In the midst of cleaning out the room that we're turning into a nursery just last week I found a container that had two sealed 250g boxes of SG St. James Flake and one 250g box each of FVF, Navy Flake, and Balkan Flake, all of which must have been set there two (or more) years ago. Seems like I was going to put a date on them but never did...
