    [AhmadOthman] Mac Baren Dark Twist Roll Cake Review

    Hi Friends, It's been a while since I got the chance to be here, and I missed you all. But I am back and with a review of a quite complex blend IMO This blend is quite tricky. And it has a learning curve, which is a lot to say about a tobacco blend, so I will divide my review to two parts, one...

    [AhmadOthman] Mac Baren Navy Flake Review

    This is my first blend dubbed "Navy" flake.. and from the history of tobacco, I imagined something rough and strong like the winds and waves braved by the navies when this kind of tobacco was made for the sailors. And the conservative, white & red tin art confirmed my speculation, and as I...

    FDA Regulations - We The People petition

    Hi all, There is a petition on the We the people website demanding the current US administration to review the FDA rulings on tobacco. I think it'd be nice if anyone who can sign would do so on the link here. And maybe this will turn the tide a bit

    Yes. I like the round ones better. They are good for cellaring and for keeping in the tin while smoking

    [AhmadOthman] Ashton Artisan Blend Review

    @perdurabo I don't think I found any Cavendish..It has a distinct taste.. Quite sweet in general.. Most coins I have tried have a core of cavendish so I got accustomed to the taste, and it isn't present for me. And the blend notes doesn't mention it as well.. So its either their secret...

    [AhmadOthman] Ashton Artisan Blend Review

    A tobacco worthy of its name. A true artisan work. When you first open the tin, you are cordially welcomed by an aroma of Syrian Latakia and orientals.. Followed by a very dark well cut chunks of tobacco. The moisture content is acceptable, though a bit of drying may be your thing. I never...
