@SeanOCDPx, I know how you feel. when I lived there, there was only one way to nudge a municipal issue along: make a “donation” to your local ward or precinct. Customs is a US entity,but still employs Chicago’s “finest” residents. Easily the most corrupt local government in the US. Im surprised you ever get any orders at all, without having to grease someones pockets.Good luck!

I went to MrS because I wanted a bunch of Old Paris. I ended up deciding to get it in bulk, later. Instead I made myself a sampler of new-to-me snuffs. This rounds out all the current Sam Gawith and Wilson’s of Sharrow that interest me, but that I haven’t had yet. I’m trying Taxi Red and NTSU Black. From the windmills I got Son de Tonca, Limburgertabak, and FCV 400. I’m looking forward to trying de Kralingse’s new small containers. I picked up a F&T Bureau 50g because it was on sale. I think it’s 17 new snuffs. I did get one I’d previously tried: de Kralingse Mettaijer 100g. I love it. Of course, now I can’t afford that Old Paris bulk for a while. Ha ha.

As usual Mr Snuff got my snuff to Chicago in two days. It has remained there all week. Sigh.

I also got a bag of Rustica. I haven’t tried it yet, but will try it out while camping with my wife over the next two nights.

My order of trials finally arrived. The Limburgertabak has been rocking the house. I keep going back for that subtle hit of orrisroot.
