    Sounds like fun.

    I really like Sir Walter Raleigh. In a pinch I will always smoke Captain Black Royal.

    I like Borkum Riff as well but haven't smoked it for a while.

    I got all that at one of those "Discount cigarette & tobacco" shops about 6 blocks from my house! Every other one I stopped into only had generic bags of pipe tobacco if any.

    Never tried Granger, Read reviews of it on tobaccoreviews.com. Maybe someone else has tried it.

    I read the reiews, they all seem to be good. That's why I was wondering about it...

    I can't seem to find any place that has the pouch at $3.00 ~vs~ the LARGE CAN at $34.00... I don't need that much trading stock... SO, if someone can find the Granger in the pouch, let me know... I'll work someting out with ya to pick me up a pouch.

    Does anyone know about Kentucky Club (Blue Pouch)? I did find that in a small amount...

    I may use the middle one, It looks like the sign that used to be on the old drugstore that was on my town square.

    Brazz, I've heard of Sail pipe tobacco, but have never tried it. Buy a pouch and let us know what you think about it.

    I never tried it either. If you get some let us all know what you think of it after a few bowls.

    I tried it years ago. To me it tasted a little like Prince Albert with a Macbarren topping. I didn't care for it. It was kinda boring.
    I understand that this blend has changed a little now, but I can't comment on the new taste.

    Hey Guys,

    There has been a lot of traffic and discussion lately on blending Drug Store Tobacco's lately.
    I think that the Drug Store Tobacco Group could benefit from this discussion.
    We need some more discussion and participation in there.
    So .... If you're not a member...
    Come on down!

    I have a pouch of Sail strong stuff , and not very complex about a three out of 10 for me . If PA and Sail where side by side and I had a coupon for Sail, PA would be in next pipe full .
