What To Do About Mold In Unnamed Manufacturer Tins
So the problem remains and has now spread to bulk blends. I guess that kills the theory of the cardboard inserts in the tins as the root of all evil. To fully resolve this issue I have a simple solution. Make up a large batch of Old Joe Krantz, enough to finally get rid of all the red VA in...- jking

What To Do About Mold In Unnamed Manufacturer Tins

What To Do About Mold In Unnamed Manufacturer Tins
Wow Dan, that's impressive. First of all Mr. Troy was/is a smart man. I never claimed to be nor am I. I'm just stating facts.

What To Do About Mold In Unnamed Manufacturer Tins
Well Dan since you quoted me I'll say this... Are they still selling new blends with the magical red VA? Carolina Red anyone? Bijou anyone?? Temple Bar anyone??? Let's forget about problems with oh shall we say, Kajun Kake. How about the best selling tinned tobacco currently on one of the major...- jking

What To Do About Mold In Unnamed Manufacturer Tins
100% behind what Adam (click) and Dave have said. They're compensating customers, which is good. They're not doing enough to address the issue, which is bad. More time and effort needed in QC, less in promoting and pumping out new blends. My 2 coppers worth. Also, don't blame the mod that closed...- jking

WARHORSE BAR/GREEN HAS ARRIVED!
It has nothing to do with the shape of the compressed "chunk" of tobacco. It has nothing to do with the density of the "chunk". It has everything to do with the ingredients.

WARHORSE BAR/GREEN HAS ARRIVED!
Judging by what Mr. 2-1-5 posted, specifically the picture of the open tin, I would say I'm a bit disappointed. Looks more like a cake than a plug. However, pictures can be deceiving.- jking

Thoughts on Lasse?
It was popular on the airways back in the 50's, 60's, and into the early 70's in the US. Anyone remember that? -
PAD - Scottie Butterscotch Bing
Nice pipe Sparks. And as a man who likes burley, I think, with the occasional sweet tooth I think Scotty's Butternut Burley would make for a fitting bowl of weed in that beauty.
