Yes, that’s also why I quit keeping track, but you’re right same wrapper different blend and disguising it as the same blend is bad form

Most companies don't do that. But yeah it's some BS. Just greed. Something gets really popular so they don't want to drop it even if they can't source all the same tobacco. On the plus side, companies that do limited runs isn't a cash grab. They are actually honest about a limited supply on that blend. Bigger companies own whole compounds, lol so they have a endless supply normally.

That's why you can never go wrong with a $3 pouch of fuckin Outlaws or Black n Milds.........you always get what you expect and when your playing cribbage around a campfire it's just gravy!

When I was a kid, we'd go to Ybor City (in Tampa) and watch the old Cuban guys rolling cigars. I think they still do it down there, but the large factories have closed. They used to grow lots of tobacky in North Florida....Not sure if they still do that, either.

The old school rollers like that are a dying breed. I know that the majority still hand roll in mass production, but the ones that casually do it while telling stories… simply amazing.
