    Mayday Mayday Mayday

    To Vac Or Not

    I received a new Foodsaver in the mail today, for saving food. I am also debating whether to vac seal my bulk tobacco. I have a couple options as I purchased the Jar Sealer accessory as well. I currently re-pac all the bulks I receive without a box into 1/2 pint Kerr Smooth Wide Mouth jars...

    Tobaccos Exclusive To England

    I have a coworker going to Leeds for business next week. He’s amicable to buy me some tobacco and bring it back. What are some blends I should request? He passes a B&M in Leeds when he’s there. I don’t know how far $100US goes there but that’s my budget.

    How Often Do You Tamp?

    Towards the end of the year I began to wonder if I use my tamper to often. So, at the beginning of the January I decided to perform an experiment. After a successful light I’d put the tamper down and wait until I needed a relight before picking it back up. Then tamp and relight. I found it...

    Cask No. 7 VS Bullseye Flake?

    So, I've been doing some window shopping and I've noticed a marked resemblance between Comoy's: Cask No.7 and Peter Stokkebye: PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake. The difference in cost goes to Cask No.7 at about $0.55 per oz when buying a pound. Has anybody done a compare/contrast of the two? I...

    Resolution

    Sorry if this thread was started already but I couldn’t find it. Aside from the typical diet and exercise... my resolution this year is to finish a tin (or jar and shelve if I decide it’s not ready) before I open another. I feel like I have too many open tins, jars, vouches, and samples.

    Giving A Pipe For Christmas

    My brother was out for Thanksgiving and expressed an interest in my pipes. He is a cigarette smoker. I’m thinking about buying a “starter set” for him. Probably a Sav second, a Czech tool, a bundle of cleaners, and tobacco. I’m looking for recommendations on tobacco. I’m leaning towards a...

    Is There a List Of Banner Adds Somewhere?

    I was reading thorough the forums earlier and just as I hit Main Category I saw a banner add that caught my attention but it hasn’t popped back up. I see the list of venders but I’d really like to find that banner.

    Buy Two Smoke One

    I think I’ve adopted a new philosophy today. Every time I buy a tin I’m buying 2. I’ll smoke one and cellar the other. If I need another tin, I’ll buy 2 more, and so on. EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title

    Old Joe Krantz With Less Nic?

    I was in my local tobacconist's shop (The Tobacco Barn in Lake Forest, CA) recently asking about non-aromatics and the gentleman recommended a bulk blend called Grandfathers (a cube-cut? burley ), and a 2oz tin of Old Joe Krantz. I purchased both and had a bowl of each. I'm now out of Old Joe...
