Penhooker Fans?

[woodsroad]

Any Penhooker (PennHookers?) fans out there?

 

[cosmicfolklore]

I am a fan of people who sell tobacco... but as to the blend, which one? There have been several companies making their own Penhooker over the years. I used to like the D&R Penhooker.

Well 7 pounds for 15$ shipped. Time to buy a cig rolling machine

A few years on this stuff should be very nice.

At this point it costs them more to ship it than what they charged…..

Thanks for the heads up. I've never had this blend before, but I grabbed five bags. Looks like it's just a ribbon cut straight VA with a very light casing, which sounds good to me.

Have they been restocking other D&R blends?

I stocked Penhooker and Penhooker Silver in my cellar. If Windsail is still made, I greatly recommend it, too. They do age well.

You could totally smoke this in a pipe.

Yes.
There wasn't much there on Saturday when I checked, there's more both there and at TobaccoPipes today.

I'll keep checking, then. $2.10 per pound for quality tobacco is a steal. That's got to be less than a penny per bowl.

How do you store these blends? I think the bags are a very thin mylar, but I'm unsure of how they would hold up over the years. It would be a lot to jar up.

I also got a pound of the Ohm Au Naturelle Menthol. In very minute amounts, it adds a certain something to some blends that is undetectable.

I stuff the sealed one pound bag into a 7 mil gusset bottom Mylar bag. The linked bag holds 1 pound, in the bag. You can add O2 absorbers. If the tobacco seems too dry, I will dampen it bery lightly with a spray bottle of clean water (not chlorinated) and then bag or jar it. Tobacco needs some moisture in order to age.

11 pounds of tobacco for 17$ shipped…..

I stuff the sealed one pound bag into a 7 mil gusset bottom Mylar bag. The linked bag holds 1 pond, in the bag. You can add O2 absorbers, If the tobacco seems too dry, I will very slightly dampen it with a spray bottle of clean water (not chlorinated) and then bag or jar it.

Thanks, man. Bagging the bag seems like the easiest way to go.

I'm looking forward to experimenting with blending this stuff.

 

[woodsroad]

Heat seal the bags that you are aging.

Not Penhooker, but thanks for the heads up!
