Anyone have any idea where to get this/ Everywhere I look, it's out of stock. They (the retailers) won't even take your name to let you know when they have it in stock. Is it that good or is it just "hype?" And, how much does it cost? just wondering.

I haven't had any myself, but my local has regular ships of it.

Pm me and tell me which kind you are looking for and I'll see if I can get you some prices.

It's a good latakia blend and excellent tobacco but honestly NOT worth the hassle or sometimes the gauged price.

Stonehaven is very good too btw.

As others have pointed out, Esoterica is a small company with modest production and an enthusiastic following. IMO they're not worth the fuss, but YMMV. Large Web retailers will sell out quickly; your best bet is a B-and-M that may have some lying around. Pricing will depend on where you are, and any retail tobacco taxes (75% here in New York, for example). Last I knew, a 2 oz tin was about 10 - 12 bucks online, if you could find any.

Way overrated IMHO........but I do not care for latakia all that much.I'm sure everything Esotetica puts out is quality....I like Stonehaven but I do not chase it.Limerick would probably be my favorite in their line.I am a VAPER/Virginia guy so this would only make since.


If you have trouble finding Penzance PM me your address,I know I have some cellared.

Who's the pipe smoker that saturates his tobacco with urine to keep it moist ?

Well, there's a two tin deal of aged Penzance on EBay ... some enterprising individual in Russia, the price is $179...never thought it was THAT good. Actually, back when I was addicted to Latakia Penzance was one of my favorites. Definitely is a classic English blend if ever there was one .

Holy schit........I thought the 1 lb bags going for over $100 was a ripoff,that's ridiculous.
