The McNeils took the opportunity afforded them by lack of a crop that met their expectations and took a long deserved retirement.
Can you please stop shouting! ha. Some of It is still available if you are willing to cough up $$$.
WHAT??!! WHEN THE HELL DID THAT HAPPEN!!!!! DOES MIKE MCNEIL KNOW?
The thing is Leroy, it's not much of a loss. They made their tobacco in Kansas City, Missouri. Have you been to Missouri? It's hot. It's humid. That famous McClelland ketchup vinegar smell? It's really just the odious sweat from the factory workers who ate a lot of McDonalds fries dowsed with copious amounts of ketchup packets. So just enjoy what you can get now knowing at worst, it has just regular sweat in it.
Very true, Google is very helpful. But if everyone just googled everything we wouldn't have much of a forum here!
Unless they googled pipes magazine.
It was a small family-owned business, and the owners retired. They had some unique methods of processing their tobacco, and did not want their blends to be screwed up by a new owner. Rather than selling their blends, trademarks, etc. off to a future owner who would not likely be able to replicate their processes, they just closed up shop.
Now that you mention it, aren’t we encouraged to google search forum threads instead of using this website’s search feature?
I actually ended up here in so many Google searches over the past few years that I finally just said "I better register." I feel like I knew half of you already.
So strange, that's what makes Thrasher's french fries so good!
Frog Morton died in a tragic rafting accident. He was just headed across the pond, but ended up on the Bayou after a night on the town. His cellar was raided by people from the Blue Mountains, lead by the Balkan beauty,and the contents can still be found on the black market. We're still hoping the Yenidje Highlander will be able to track down those responsible and dole out swift justice with his dark star. Last report said he was hot on their trail in St. James Woods, or possibly Virginia Woods. We still mourn his loss on the anniversary of the event. We all try to keep the holiday spirit but there sure has been a lot less Christmas cheer since it happened. Frog was a beacon of quality and one of the true legends.
It would take a master penman to describe everything he meant to us.

That's how I became a member. This forum taught me how to smoke a pipe several years before I eventually joined.
I wonder if he had been indulging a bit too much in the contents of his cellar.
How long did it take you to write that? And were you wetting your pants with laughter as you did?!
IT STOPPED. YOU’RE WELCOME.
I BET YOU’LL HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION SOON THAT CAN’T BE ANSWERED BY GOOGLE.
