    Blends That Contain "Black Stoved Virginias"

    Butera Dark Stoved and 2035. Christmas Cheer 1996 was the only one that deviated from the typical script and had it. St James Woods had it. Many of the mixtures has it as a component. Red and Black of course.

    Ken Byron’s Extra Mature FVF

    That would be a clear case of fraud and is illegal under fraud law. Not the case here.

    Ken Byron’s Extra Mature FVF

    This discussion is funny. It’s like everyone is rooting against KBVEN for some reason. I hope the accelerated aging of FVF is successful. As a consumer I’m glad he is trying these things. If SG decides they want to defend a trademark violation they’ll send a cease and desist or more likely...

    Ken Byron’s Extra Mature FVF

    This is not illegal. See the first sale doctrine. There have been some changes recently or talk of it, I don’t know if it actually happened regarding international purchases. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-sale_doctrine

    A Question About Aging

    There is no need to, assuming that the bag isn’t way too big for the tin or tins sealed. Just press out some of the air before sealing.

    Can Internet Tobacco Orders Be Banned In A Spending Bill?

    This is almost definitely not true. To underscore the issue: members of Congress are immune from insider trading laws. There is no way that changed. You may have heard about some staffer or some other connected individuals caught up in something but not members of Congress caught under those...

    A Question About Aging

    That is the failsafe way to go. Another idiot proof thing you can do is put the whole tins in a Mylar and heat seal it. I prefer to leave my tins intact so that’s my method if I have any concerns.

    Buying KY Dark Fired For A Friend’s Bachelor Party

    I was going to suggest HH Bold Kentucky too. That’s what I’d go with. SGLD is also a solid suggestion if you can find it.

    Where Do You Buy?

    I buy online except when I want to go to the cigar lounge I of course buy something there. Either a blend I’ve wanted to try or pipe cleaners and a cigar then I just smoke whatever pipe tobacco I’ve brought with me.

    Wife Found My Stash

    Wow Blackwoods Extra! Where did you get that if you don’t mine me asking?

    Recent TAD Pick-Ups

    I’d just inspect all the seams and look for pin holes. If you don’t handle them much they’ll be ok. On the other hand you can just throw the whole thing in a Mylar for peace of mine if you want.

    Blind GH & Co. Bulk Buys... Good, Or Nah?

    Is that 8oz of each blind? I generally like their stuff but I’d want to try 1oz of each first before I dove in.

    Macbaren #1 Triumphant

    Yes the HH line in my experience do not bite. It’s the others.

    I Went A Little Crazy

    Wow didn’t know that was an option! Much better than paying a wire transfer fee.

    ***What Are You Smoking? December 2019.***

    When did that occur? You’re not talking about the A&CP days are you?

    ***What Are You Smoking? December 2019.***

    Fantastic, thanks for that. There isn’t a lot of info on the blend or at least not a lot of experiences I heard about.

    ***What Are You Smoking? December 2019.***

    This is the Virginian? Did you take a picture of it? What did you think of it? I was lucky enough to get a couple.

    ***What Are You Smoking? December 2019.***

    I recently watched a duo of films on the Criterion Channel starring Edward G Robinson and I couldn’t help thinking of you. The first was Scarlet Street and the second was Woman in the Window. In the former Robinson is a painter who has never had luck selling his paintings and is taken in by...
