    What Was Your First "I Gotta Buy 5 Pounds of This Stuff!" Tobacco?

    The tobaccos I'm hooked on right now is Larry's blend. And as of recently obsidian 6×60s but I don't think I would want to smoke 5lbs of anything that isn't meat. If we are talking continuously I think id get tired of it after a pound and a half.

    Smoke Curing tobacco.

    I'm having a hard time wording things correctly in a Google search. Some one here ought to know. I'm curious, If part of the process of making Latakia is smoke Curing it. Can you use tobacco leaf as the fuel for the fire?? And if so would it add anything different to it vs using wood?

    Best No Nonsense Way to Pack and Break in a Pipe

    I should have mentioned what determined if it will be for English or aromatics. Heat. I see aromatics as the "dessert" blend. I like more heat when it comes to aros. But like desserts it's not something I consume frequently. Unless it's ice cream!! I've been pulled over on multiple occasions...
