Aromatic sampler pass.

This is the first of a few sampler passes we'll be doing. @Hawks thought it would be fun, and I agree. He sent me a Boswell sampler of seven 1oz samples to try and then pass on to another member. I smoked a bowl of each and there is still plenty leftover. Should be able to handle 7-8 people, maybe more. I've already asked some people and they were up for it so it's officially on. Once we have our list we can make up an order that saves the most time.

I think this first time will be a trial. If it works out well, they have a fall sampler and an English sampler. After that we'll figure something out if there is interest in doing more. Dont add any tobacco to the box, we'll just run what comes in the sampler for now.

We can share our thoughts on each tobacco, good or bad, and try out blends we may never had thought of or knew about.

Rules:
Good trader's list, 50 posts, etc.
Dont add anything to the box, for now.

    So we’re just smoking a bowl of each and then passing it on? Why not I’m in.

    Otherwise the box could end up being bigger at the end than it started.

    @Hawks started this thing. He sent me the sampler and told me to pass it on. How about @d_blades ?

    Hey if it’s not too much trouble can we put me on the end of the list? I think I’m starting to get sick and don’t know if I’ll be smoking much over the next few days and I’d hate to pass along my sickness.

    I guess the pass will go this route, unless anyone else wants in. I'll ship it Monday afternoon.

    Only have one aromatic, and only smoked 2 bowls. Don't think I'm in at this time.

    The next one is going to be an English sampler. Maybe then?

    Because I don’t already have enough coming my way…….. I’ve got so many cigars and tobacco coming my direction I don’t even know what to do with it all. Gonna have to take a week or two off from work to chain smoke and ice the tongue

    😆 I still have smokes from my newbie trade.
