| This discussion is great! I haven't read such a nuanced review of a tobacco in the longest! Very well done! |

| Ahhh. My second two tins came in today, total of one working tin and three in the hold. That should do it for me til the next frenzy.
Just picked up an odd lot of Solani Silver Flake...plus a tin on the way. Think I'll make that fine blend my next obsession. I'll be glad when Spring hits and I can start building on to my shop. That'll take my cabin fevered brain off the flakes. It'll also take all my discretionary cash. |

| After giving this thread a thorough read, I headed over to P&C so I could sign up for their notification thread for this blend. Upon opening the Bracken Flake page, I discovered that it's still in stock, as is FVF... so I ordered 2 tins of Bracken Flake. Y'know, as a final cherry on the voluminous amounts of ice cream and cake I've been buying recently.  In short, P&C has Braken Flake, FVF, and a lot of other Samuel Gawith blends in the tin in stock! |
