Leaf & Ale
So I noticed that Mike at Leaf & Ale sold bulk tobacco and given his great reputation on this board I shot him a message. I told him I was just starting to smoke a pipe and asked if he could put together a small sampler for me of tobaccos. My local B&M kept steering me towards tobaccos heavy on cavendish, while I like it I wanted sample a few different tobaccos like latakia, oriental and perique.

Well Mike told me to hop on his website and just order 3 ounces of any tobacco and he would have his expert put together a sampler for me. I also saw he had Frog Morton so I added a 50g can of that and some bristled pipe cleaners. I inquired about the new Cusano Sun Growns and Cameroons, which he didn't have in yet.

Well I received my order today. Well he upgraded me to McClellands and all three samples look like more than an ounce to me but what do I know . That 50g must have doubled on its way here as it was a 100g can when it got to me and there was Cusano Sungrown robusto in the package. Well Mike you've earned my business!

Its much wider than my local B&M but thats probably not saying too much. Aside fom about 12-15 house blends they have a couple tins of Peterson, one or two tins of McClelland and Dunhill Early Morning bulk. Thats it.

I haven't looked at their house blends too closely. Usually house blends are just repackaged Stokkebye or Altadis bulk blends. I'll look again.

I was talking about my local B&M there. Which is Stokkebye and a couple the 'blended' themselves.
