Help me ID some blends discussed here recently (frequent backorders?)

[forgop]

I browsed within the last month or so and came across a thread where there was a lot of discussion about a particular retailer (I thought it was cigarandpipe.com or something to that effect). Anyway, lot of talk about some blends that are frequently sold out/backordered and it was for bulk tobacco.

I remember one of the blends discussed had a year. Anyway, I've searched everywhere on here looking for the thread and can't find it. Can anyone shed some light as to what site it was and what the blends in question could be?

Thanks!

I think it is, but I've had some difficulty finding the particular blends.

What did I miss out on? I sent an email asking if I can get in on the pre-order for 4 different blends (4 oz).

There have been many pipe tobacco panics in the last two years; some of us Escudo, Samuel Gawith and Dunhill guys panicked more than the others. If you are not already intimate with these lines than you haven't missed a thing, you lucky bastich.

I haven't smoked a pipe in some time and thought I'd pick up a few blends for the colder months. I'm on the list for 4 oz of 3 blends the next time they come in. Now, I just need to get a new pipe...

Most retailers received a relatively large shipment of Samuel Gawith Bulk tobaccos. Most were sold out within hours. A lot of people were buying 5+ pounds at a clip.
