Been gone awhile…Just read about Chef Daniels…A bit grief stricken…Terrible loss…he was kind to me and shared his knowledge. Tremendous sense of loss here. He knew how to live. I am getting up there myself. This EU thing is a major disturbance in the FORCE.

Welcome back Whalen. Yes, we’ve been dealt some devastating blows in the snuff world recently. The good news is that Grand Cairo is safe - Wilsons are continuing to produce it in all three tin sizes and in one pound drums. As to what we’ve lost - brace yourself… Snuffs lost in 2016/17 Bernard ~ Gekachelter Virginie Bernard ~ Alkoholfrei Frederick Tranters ~ Beau Nash Frederick Tranters ~ Brunswick Frederick Tranters ~

@50ft_trad…Thank you for that ambitious post! I am actually going to have to hang my head and cry before I raise my fist and shout! What a devastating list! Look at all the capitol being wasted. Each of those took time to conceive, and yes some are minors, but many are classics. A DAMN SHAME- So many shocks to the system. And how much of this is for greater good? Looks like greater profit to the few who had the audacity to pull it off. Never underestimate the evil of big corporations.
Sorry, but it is an outrageous situation.
Is there anything as an American that I could do to help? I am “WOKE”.

Darn near all of the classic Rose snuffs on that list! Arg! I was going to highlight how many I have from the list, But it would be far simpler to list those I have not.
OMG - TOP MILL, ATTAR of Rose, Irish HDT 20, English Rose, Someone get a rope! Torches!

@Whalen No problem, it was just a copy and paste exercise. Sorry to be the bearer of the full extent of the bad news. I actually had to shorten the closing paragraph as I maxed out on characters for the post. If we lose many more, I won’t be able to list them all in one post.
@50ft_trad That would certainly be a good thing if you didn’t have to do such a depressing update.
