Thanks so much for sharing all of this information and your thoughts! I am definitely interested in following your Tobacco growing and blending journey and wish you all the best with this!
When the whole announcement happened I did grab a few tins of Capstan and this was before the list of remaining blends came out. I’m still glad to have them in hand since I honestly don’t expect anything to stay the same. The remaining blends may not stay the same. The only one that has gotten away that I really wanted was HH old dark fired. I have one open tin and that’s it. I’ll hope to find an alternative I am also cellaring deep now on my favorites as I have no confidence in any company staying in business. I’ve quit buying pipes and am only buying leaf. I intend to have enough to last the rest of my life, as the biggest danger I see to our enjoyment of our pipes is the continuing lobbying to nanny us to death. I travel to Mexico frequently and even they have recently caved and banned nearly all smoking in public, only allowing certain designated smoking areas to remain. This is unheard of there as it is still very much a part of the culture, similar to here in the 50s. Remember, “We are the government and we are here to help…”
I'm glad that for other reasons i went really deep on alot of the blends i enjoy so im cellared for many years to come. But it sucks knowing that so many of those jars will be empty in another 10 yrs
Hell yeah, stoked for the uncoming follow along series. I've got a blend lined up: Durin's Morning Breath - a Va/Bur/Rustica blend that hits as hard as dwarven morning breath after a night of drinking and onion eating contests 😂
So I know that pipes and cigars delisted Hearth and Home 10 to Midnight then relisted it again after an apparent restock. I ordered 26oz from that restock but it hasn’t shipped. 10 to Midnight has since been delisted again and shows out of stock with the direct link. My order does show ship 26 and Back Order: 0 - so I’m holding out hope.
Michigan has restrictions on grow tobacco. You are only allowed so many without required permits. I currently looking into to see how many plants/types you are allowed.
I know Smokingpipes has a “discontinued” label on Sutliff Balkan S Match, meaning they probably won’t restock. That (and H&H WhiteKnight, which is also being discontinued) was my favorite English. Sad times.
Sucks man I missed out on my two favorite suttlif blends I wish they put a limit on how many you can buy at a time so everyone could get at least one last chance to try their favorites.
I got layed off of work 2 weeks before Christmas and missed the option to buy 5-8 tins of molto dolce. I’m so upset I don’t think I’ll get that opportunity again
We should rejoice that we still have Gawith, C n D, and more recently the HU blends which in my opinion are on par with all the HH blends(Indaba is the perfect replacement for Old Dark Fired and Directors cut is even superior to Royal Twist). Happy smokes !
agree on the HU blends Night Owl & Mukhuwa will be my alt to HH Bold Kentucky and Burley Flake sadly there will be no replacement/equavlient for HH Rustica
Remember that HU is blended by K&K I believe and they get a majority of their leaf from STG. STG now controls 80% of the pipe tobacco market. They are an evil company and could have sold off the sutliff factory to an interested party but they are destroying it instead. Support C&D and smoking pipes. They are all we have left in the US.
In summary, from what I’ve heard, Sutliff is gone except for those terrible aromatics you mentioned. MacBaren is gone except for the 5 blends you mentioned in the US, in Europe that will be up to 10 blends(as yet not announced) but definitely not any HH blends. A shitshow.
I wonder if STG IS going to not resupply MacBarren blends, and then after Feb 28th, release a tin at a time on CigarBid. Thereby significantly increasing their profits....
I haven’t smoked any Sutliff I haven’t smoked any sutliff so it’s not going to effect me much. But if anyone out there can tell me which is a few good blends to try by them. Sorry to all those whose who smoke this blend and are broken hearted.
I think i saw someone say they own P&C, cup o joe and smoking pipes which is just great. Just funneling all the bigger ways to get pipe tobacco looks like its on to the smaller shops
Rather angry about all this. MacBaren blends would continue to be available had that company not been bought out. Artifacts of pipe smoking history are becoming less available so that profits can grow.
Thank you for information, thank goodness for your comments.

Im loving the process so far gotta get a couple final things but i almost have it all
@ hooray!!! I’m sure that’s gonna be fun for you!

Fml this is perfect 😂 I'm for sure doing this
Funny!
Good info. I can’t wait to see your videos about growing your own tobacco and making blends ! Sounds awesome
Me too!
Thanks im so ready to get started!
@@durinsrest6570 it is exciting! What kind of tobacco do you already have harvested? I know you had the Basma.
@carolinarose704 I have basma and burley so far about 4 lbs of burley and prob 10-15 lbs of basma
@ that’s so awesome! I can’t wait to see what you do!

Dang that would be some crazy luck I hope it works out for you bc I wish I had got 5 lbs

Alot of states have regulations if your growing for production but alot allow it for personal use
HH ODF and HH BK are both missing on PipesandCigers.
This truly sucks
Maybe we will see someone else pick those blends up.
We can still order from Germany. So, we just need to get those avenues in line if we want to keep enjoying certain blends
Ow nice probably more private ways
I know Smokingpipes has a “discontinued” label on Sutliff Balkan S Match, meaning they probably won’t restock. That (and H&H WhiteKnight, which is also being discontinued) was my favorite English. Sad times.
I honestly havent got around to smoking white knight i have a couple tins ill have to give it a go
Sucks man I missed out on my two favorite suttlif blends I wish they put a limit on how many you can buy at a time so everyone could get at least one last chance to try their favorites.
So many sutliff blends we never got to try
They also own tobacco pipes and cup of joes which will become part of pipes and cigars as those two sites will be shut down
Yes…sad…😢
Yeah this is gonna hurt for sure
I got layed off of work 2 weeks before Christmas and missed the option to buy 5-8 tins of molto dolce. I’m so upset I don’t think I’ll get that opportunity again
I’ve got 2 unopened rn 😮
@ imma cry don’t you tell me
@ you can buy one from me for 1 MILLION dollars
@bakercompanygaming947 dont worry i got you ill sell it too you for only 100k
@@durinsrest6570 🤣🤣🤣
I got one of the last tins of Barbados Plantation I could possibly find out there and had to order it from a random cigar shops website
Thats one i never got to try glad you could grab some!
I still bought some of the ones that are staying because I'm assuming the blends will change on those with a new production site.
Ow if you like them id buy them for sure. I wouldnt trust that they wont be changed
What is the model of pipe you are smoking from?
Its a bent kaywoodie one of the newer ones
Hi I'm definitely digging your smoking robe 😁.. nice 👍
Think its going to be a channel staple now at least in the winter so ill have to get a couple
4noggins has some things restocked! Good luck everyone!
annnnnddddddd its gone lol
@@durinsrest6570 somehow they're back with more!! even 507c this time!
Much (MUCH) more reason for us to support US suppliers: Boswells, 4Noggins, etc... I really dont want EU controlling my options.
Very true hopefully some of the blenders could get together and make their own website bc that would be awesome
This sucks man. I just started and my favorite was MB plum cake
Plum cake is such a good blend. Sad i only have 1 tin left
Yea I noticed they took off dark twist completely and that’s upsetting.
not telling you what to do but check out estervals.....
Pipes and Cigars was purchased by Cigars International which is owned by STG.
Lol and like someone mentioned above watch CI will start posting sutliff blends to bid on
We should rejoice that we still have Gawith, C n D, and more recently the HU blends which in my opinion are on par with all the HH blends(Indaba is the perfect replacement for Old Dark Fired and Directors cut is even superior to Royal Twist). Happy smokes !
agree on the HU blends
Night Owl & Mukhuwa will be my alt to HH Bold Kentucky and Burley Flake
sadly there will be no replacement/equavlient for HH Rustica
@ true, I would say that the brown Irish twist by Gawith is a nice substitute when craving that vitamin N.
Remember that HU is blended by K&K I believe and they get a majority of their leaf from STG. STG now controls 80% of the pipe tobacco market. They are an evil company and could have sold off the sutliff factory to an interested party but they are destroying it instead. Support C&D and smoking pipes. They are all we have left in the US.
We should and we should stock up! Heavily!!
some best brown 4 is great as well!

I mean if they were going to keep some aros they could have kept better ones
I wonder if STG IS going to not resupply MacBarren blends, and then after Feb 28th, release a tin at a time on CigarBid. Thereby significantly increasing their profits....
Lol i need to make a list of all our theorys and see which one is right lol
Just subscribed. This really sucks. I loved a lot of the HH line and Sutliff blends.
H&H and some sutliff were such staple smokes
P&C is run by STG so that might provide some insight…
Yeah and apparently they own alot of the other bigger websites so this is going to be a shitshow
I haven’t smoked any Sutliff I haven’t smoked any sutliff so it’s not going to effect me much. But if anyone out there can tell me which is a few good blends to try by them. Sorry to all those whose who smoke this blend and are broken hearted.
I've been enjoying Match 20. It's a Peterson 965 "match". No match is perfect, especially this one. But it's good if you don't compare it to 965
@ awesome
I enjoyed the virginia slices and eastfarthing from sutliff. And Mac baren bold kentucky, old dark fired and latakia flake will be missed
There's no any addtional information except public and already known. Just rumors, guesses and bla-bla-bla. Wasted time.
Pipes and cigars is an STG company. Do not give them any business. Make a statement.
I think i saw someone say they own P&C, cup o joe and smoking pipes which is just great. Just funneling all the bigger ways to get pipe tobacco looks like its on to the smaller shops
Sad HH dark fired is going away/ glad i stocked up on some. Im glad navy flake is continuing
i really dont think i could have bought enough to feel secure. Even if i had 5 lbs id feel tight
@ true!
Rather angry about all this.
MacBaren blends would continue to be available had that company not been bought out.
Artifacts of pipe smoking history are becoming less available so that profits can grow.
I wish someone that enjoyed pipes had bought them
