Tinned Tobacco at Smoking Pipes .com
It's a capture of SP's website on Jan 2007. If it was for sale then, it might still be on sale come Tobaccopolyse.

Escudo, and SPC Plum Pudding Special Reserve are tied for the top spot. Orlik Golden Sliced is number three, but just barely.

8oz of Penzance and Stonehaven for $21... I would have been in culinary school rolling Bugler tobacco in papers by the dumpster then... Oh my.

Back then the idea of buying 8oz bags was an alien concept to me.
1. Escudo
2. Rattray's Old Gowrie
3. Rattray's Marlin Flake
I was pretty close in my guess...I thought HOTW would have been up there higher.

1. Peter Stokkebeye Luxury Bulls Eye Flake. I bought a lot of this on sale early in the journey; glad I did!
2. Watch City Off the Rails, the Pipe Smokers Den 2019 Tobacco of the Year, a VaOr. This was an interesting buy in that you put in a pre-order for as much as you wanted and then Ernie Q blended up the total from all buyers + a little. It was a one time deal and will not be made again - so I bought a lot, 5#, glad I like it!
3. Watch City Rhythm and Blues. A VaPer with three different Virginias and a dose of Perique. A very nice smoking VaPer that tends to only be available from time to time, maybe twice a year? I can't remember. Upper limit is one pound per customer, so that is what I tend to buy.
I'm a big fan of the Watch City blends, Ernie Q is a great blender of Virginia and Burley blends. Not the most inexpensive blends, but oh so worth it. I was not too surprised when I built a tab on my spreadsheet where I could sort out blends by weight. Some of my early buys when I was first exploring show up with some fair amounts. Some of the higher weight blends are the results of great deals and my lack of perspective. For instance, my foray into Cigarbids.com led to a heavy accumulation of SPC Plum Pudding, when they had 8oz cans on the falling auctions; some great deals for sure, but I don't know if I'll smoke 2.5 pounds in the near term. If I had it to do over, I would not be in such a hurry to buy pounds. Some of those blends will be a long time getting smoked. But, then again, if the tobacco purchasing environment continues to erode, I have an ample supply of future bowls!

One ounce of Proper English. I live in California where we don’t have cellars.
Hah I live here as well. I’d love to have a cellar/basement! Giving this air-tight glass jar idea a go for “cellaring” (really just a box under the bed that holds my pipe stuff lol).
1. Newminster Superior Round Slices
2. PS LBF
3. PS LNF
Been smoking a lot of Sutliff Ready Rubbed match lately so it starting to noticeably climb in my cellar ranking though.

Rattray's Black Mallory and Rattray's Accountant's Mixture. Never saw a need for a third. Heck, had it not been for the recent Black Mallory shortage I might have only one, but I have come to enjoy the Accountant's Mixture very much.
