Best cork I've found

I've tried cork from other suppliers that just fell apart when flexing. This stuff is much better quality than any I've found elsewhere.

Haven’t received

Would write a review but haven’t received product as of 4/18. It arrived at our local post office 4/6 and the latest tracking from 4/10 says it’s “moving through the system”
