It's decent. I have an open tin from a few months ago, but have only smoked a couple of bowls of it. In fact, now that I think about it, I might fire up a bowl of it right now! :P
The irony here is that one of the local B&Ms near me has about 20 tins of Penzance sitting on his shelf with an inch of dust on them!
The next time I make a trip there to stock up on tobacco, I'll buy a few of the tins and dedicate a couple of them as "sample" tins for forum members who want to...
Yeah. I'm pretty sure they do.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding. If the tobacco tastes exactly the same each time, regardless of what pipe you smoke it in and after the tins been open for awhile...you throw it away?
To each his own I guess!
I'm gonna be "that" guy...Budweiser.
I did my time with the micro-brews and honestly, I thought most of them were terrible. I found myself going back to Budweiser every time. It's crisp, clean and light.
Ugh. As a native German speaker I tried to let this go, but I cannot. "Meer" is pronounced "mare." Not "ear."
Say M'ear'schaum in Germany and you'll get some funny looks and winces.
Eh,not quite. Thats just how most pronounce it because they don't know any better.
Meer is pronounced like you would the word for a female horse "mare"
'schaum is not actually pronounced "shum."
The "scha" sounds like "shower" but without the "er" and an "m" at the end.
It could be one of several things, the varnish they use or if the taste came towards the end, the glue they used for the stem. Or could even be just the "sweet" taste a new cob can impart on your smoke that tastes like chemicals.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but rather than enjoy the other 4, you would refuse to smoke any of them simply because the 1st is not available? Why? :?
I'm a little surprised by how few knew this. I thought this was common knowledge among tobacco users. It seems to be, at least among most cigarette smokers so perhaps that why, as a lot of pipe smokers have never smoked cigarettes.
