Anyone know when Thin Leaf and Lemon might be back in stock?

Sorry in advance if this sounds like a dumb question and that it should be asked to WLT directly. I actually reached out to them by email a few weeks ago and never got a reply back.

I'm pretty new to whole leaf and only started a couple months ago. I've never actually seen Thin Leaf or Lemon in stock during the few times I've browsed their website. Anyone know is it something that usually becomes available in the Fall season?

The flue-cured tobacco auctions regularly occur in North Carolina during the autumn, after the crops from the entire region have been cured, packed into huge (~700 pound) bales, then transported to the auction house. When WLT purchases one or more bales at an auction, it then must be shipped to Ohio. After arrival at WLT, the leaf is gradually unpacked from the bales, brought into case, and sorted, then repackaged for sale.

Just check their website from time to time.

I gave a ring a month ago and was told the Lemon should be available around September.

Looks like a fresh bale of Thin Leaf primings arrived after stock out for quite a while.

Flue Cured Virginia Thin Leaf (First Priming), 1lb.

This tobacco is Flue Cured, like most Virginia-type tobacco. Taken as a First Priming, the leaves are harvested from the lowest part of the plant (exposed to the least amount of sunlight).
