Wednesday at noon CST, Golden Age debuts. This will be another “not for everyone” because even with the Lakeland style oils dialed way back they can still ghost a pipe through repeated smoking. Matured bright Virginia and fragrances for the Sword and Board series with just a toe in the Lake. We slowed down the
The next Sword & Board blend is almost here. Coming next week, Golden Age is a collection of mature bright Virginias in a creamy, lemony presentation.
