    Dating Peterson Tobacco Tins?

    Normally there are very large round labels on the back. There is a 10 digit code, if your break that up in pairs of two, you take the first pair, the third pair and the fifth pair you get the date backwards in European date note (we date ddmmyy), the 2nd pair and 4th pair are the hour and minute...

    Nicotine in Blends

    We all have different tollerances. I'm large-ish (6'3" 240 pounds), a big bold Nicaraguan cigar can't knock me over (except for when it isnt rested properly like one time happened), 1 flake of ODF smoked in a normal non-hot smoke pace knocks me off my socks period (especially when its to dry...

    You can't, you need the 10 digit code.

    Tobacco Recommendation in Europe

    Edit; I have to edit my statement watching the tin of my Peterson tobacco.... But I think you catch my drift, there are a lot of over the counter tobacco's from STG that are not well received.

    Tobacco Recommendation in Europe

    Hi Paul, this is something we have discussed before, but for the sake of the topic; to my personal opinion Dutch pipe tobacco is truly inferior of quality compared to Danish (Amphora is Mac Baren now) or German manufacturers. That's my own opinion, which is the only thing i'm on expert on ...

    Black Meerschaum Brand

    Personally no. No advertisement, but Bremen Pipe Smoker (Mark) has done an video on YouTube about their pipes with the proprietor of Black Meerschaum.

    Tobacco Recommendation in Europe

    If your order from Estervals you can get in about a week on your doorstep, I do that all the time. The Netherlands is A Expensive in tobacco and B for pipe tobacco barren like a desert. If you go to Germany you have generally 3 options I know off; in the North Estervals or TAK in Kiel (near the...

    Remember the Smoking Car on Trains?

    For my education I applied for a abroad internship. My German language grades where outstanding compared to the average (so still mediocre I think haha), last minute I got a internship assigned in Austria. At that time I was a cigarette smoker. The first stint from Utrecht to Frankfurt I...

    Blends that Pair Well with Black Coffee

    All blends go with coffee. I'm no coffee roaster and don't buy fancy smancy blends, just "normal" blends, but I could imagine a different bean might go with a certain tobacco better than others. Just like any other drink (except water) with tobacco. To me a "normal" coffee blend goes the best...

    Are Burley Smokers a Breed?

    I like Burley, but more in a VaBur like Golden Mixture/Blend than a full burley like ABF. ABF took a long time to open up for me, 3 months in the tin its moisture is on point and I get a more molasses sweetness mixed with a earthy connotation (not that I have ever ate dirt). I have a tin of HH...

    Am I Doing the Math Right?!

    Allthough the comparison might sound crooked, but if you think for a small batch is that a lot of tobacco, watch a warehouse from other tobacco companies like mentioned Macbarren. They have a few videos on YouTube where Per Jenssen explained about tobacco. He showed big bags on pallets and those...

    Reading Blends

    I think a good reading blend would be something not to complex and your well acquainted with. I'm pretty fast distracted, so I wouldn't smoke a first time blend or anything I know will be complex while doing anything else than smoking. But I hardly do anything else than smoking while smoking, I...

    Estervals and Shipping to the US

    Mine take about a week on 600kms, so 8 days on a trip across the pond ain't bad.

    Pipe Rest Recommendations for an Oom-Paul

    Badum tsssssss. The only fullish bent I had fitted good into a standard leather pipestand. You might have to tilt the stem a bit downwards to balance it.
