Does anyone remember those Altadis samplers?

[kzm007]

That were offered awhile back through the website?

I'm just wondering when it was, since I just got mine lol.

Now I have Fox and Hound, Wild Cherry, and Blue Note to go along with my Night Cap :D some year they'll get smoked I hope.

Good to hear. I forgot about that. I ordered some and still haven't gotten anything.. Want to say it was sometime in April

[Prospector]

I ordered one back in January (R&J cigar sampler) and then ordered it again in early April. Never got either one.

Thanks guys...are these blends any good, in your opinions?

They smelled decent enough flavor-wise, although I can honestly say, I think that the F & H smelled like beef jerky to me.

I received a white envelope last week with a return address on it that I didn't recognize. When I opened it, there were three small pouches of pipe tobacco inside. I totally forgot about ordering these... :confused:

On the other hand, I received my RyJ and Macanudo 1968 samplers about 6 -8 weeks after placing and paying for the orders... :tu

Now I have to dig out my old pipes and paraphenalia..... :bh

Lol from Dreamcastle, something something Virginia, right?

I was expecting a CD. Kind of bummed until I opened it up.

Long as it took, I'm just glad it was free :D

I got this same sampler a few months ago. The Fox and Hound was decent,however the Wild Cherry and BlueNote were a huge dissappointment.
Both had a strong chemical taste. I must warn you not to ingest an carbonate drink during or after smoking the Wild Cherry it imparts pain upon the tongue. I was extremely thankful they were free as I deposited both in the trash. BTW how was the visit to Shriners. Hope all went well for you. I'm still in total remission as of this date.:dance:

I've actually heard of people getting multiple samples sent to them once per year. Maybe once you're on that list you may get them sent out every once in a while.

I ordered a sampler about 2 years ago and it came with 22 of the 1.5 oz packages, all of them different blends. I don't smoke my pipe that often to this is a lifetime supply of pipe tobacco for me. I really liked the night cap.

JUst received my 2 batch of of these samplers. Blue note was not bad, the rest sux. IMO

I gave mine away to needy BOTLs and the Troops.
