    Estervals Question

    I don’t mean to hijack my own post, but do you guys have any recommendations for HU tobaccos or other pipe tobacco from Estervals for Virginia and VaPers? In the past I have enjoyed such blends such as LTF, LBF, LNF, Capstan Blue, and Newminster 400, etc. Thanks everyone who have posted so far...

    Estervals Question

    Wow, it makes me reconsider ordering from them if it’s such a hassle. I emailed Estervals about shipping to Japan and this is what they replied: “We can ship directly to Japan. Unfortunately, DHL Express is currently having problems that we cannot pinpoint correctly. Maybe you should try normal...

    Estervals Question

    I believe I will be taxed close to the equivalent of $80, on top of $180 for the tobacco and around $50 for shipping.

    Hello from Japan

    I usually do most of my shopping online at Smoking Pipes. I sometimes get pipe tobacco at a shop called Kikusui. This is the list of pipe tobacco that they have at their shop. They also sell other goods such as cigars, kiseru, etc. https://www.ginza-kikusui.com/item/index/7

    Estervals Question

    Hello everyone, I’ve recently been hearing the praise about Estervals, and thinking about ordering to Japan. The main question and concern I have is regarding customs, as all tobacco is taxed at around $100 USD/kg. In order to make the purchase worth it, to make up for the shipping, I’d...
