   Thanks to whoever posted the offer on here I received a pouch of Troost Special Cavendish.
   Opened it up and it smells pretty nice. I also got a $4 coupon for any Capt Black product.
   I really am not a Capt Black smoker so if anyone is interested p.m. me and I'll send it out. I'd like to see it get used.
   Going to try a bowl of the Troost tonight and see how it goes.

   I got my Troost Special Cavenish (orange pouch) yesterday. It doesn't look like cavenish at all, actually -- it's more like Mac Baren Golden Extra in cut and color. I find it to be quite good -- I like the cut, the moisture out of the pouch is perfect, it lights and smokes cool and evenly. The problem is, I don't think many drug stores or supermarkets, at least in this area, carry it.

   I got a pouch of Sir Walter Raleigh Aromatic. I have to say I really like it. I haven't smoked anything else since I got it.

   I got my pack of Troost yesterday. It's pretty much what I remember smoking in the 1970' so, to my nose, it hasn't changed which is a good thing. No bad but not a repeat for me.

   Still waiting on my Skandinavik full aroma packet to arrive.

   Also right here on PM. It's one of the changing banners at the top of the home page.

    Unless I am mistaken, and I do not believe I am, the Skandinavik Full Aroma is the same as Amphoria Full Aroma that I can buy here in Canada. I also ordered Skandinavik for my free pouch but it hasn't reached me yet.

    If at first you don't succeed, have another bowl.

    I'm with Twangthang. Got a four buck coupon for Capt. Black and it's anybody's for the asking.

    @Lyle: Booyah! Way to cowboy up and get one of the stiffest nic-loaded tobaccos on the market. I got my pouch three days ago, friend-o.

    For those of you who got the 5 Bro's, how full is it? I heard its not as potent as when it was made here in the states. I am still waiting on my pouch.

    @ nsfisher

    I've never had either. How do you like the Amphoria Full Aroma? What's it like, if I may ask. I'm looking forward to trying the Skandinavik FA.
