The beagle killed all the wabbits!!! I've been buying from TSC but feel the quality is not what it was last season (at least at my local store) so I went with a ton of loose from my local dealer. I have to say the quality is excellent as was the price. No fines, no dust and it burns great. Most importantly, the wife is happy.... at least until she has to go to the bin and fetch a pail........ :o

I agree the stuff from TSC went down hill.

Scored 90 40# bags of nut for $150 close to home. It was a chore but I got er done. Gotta love CL ...and the cold hops after.

Owner said there used to be writing on the bags but I found no trace of where it was mined. Any ideas? Every bag was hand tied in plastic.

Burns good and no fines.

See y'all next season.

Cheers.

They look like Kimmel's bags but the ones I used to get were not hand tied. I have been using Lehigh this year. Burn it up, enjoy!
