This sucks! Too bad Sternecker is such good schmalzler!!

250g. In my stash under dark amber glass will tide me over for my lifetime. Another that is kept under lock and key in my snuff fridge.

Me too. We could send old Alfred Easter greetings postcard.

Digging this up from the dead, but dang this stinks! I’m too late to the party it seems. I would have LOVED to try these.
