    Dry European Snuff Anyone?

    Just wondering, is that quality tobacco people snuff up their nose, or is it just some dust they sweep off the floor and machines at the cig plant?

    January 2011 - What are you smoking? II

    The old baccy was alright, maybe I'm not enlightened enough to enjoy it's truer qualities, it was nice, but nothing that really knocked my socks off..

    January 2011 - What are you smoking? II

    a little bit of this 1950's Kingsbury Flake I got at auktion. Got to get it moistened up a bit but will try a little dry to see how goes, smells good anyhows..ok, I'm lighting up, wow, I was expecting a harsh coughing eye watering bad. I'm not good at creative reviews, but it's smooth and strong...

    Cigar leaf blend suggestions

    I would like to try a blend with a cigar leaf blended in. Not, so as the taste of cigar takes over the whole smoke, Something rather in the background. Do any of you have any suggestions? I'm eager to try one!

    No more dip :) Thanks!

    Archer, I too started on the Redman and went straight to dip from there, A road march without dip is.. well, hell. Glad you kicked it and hope I can keep the same record as you. Alan, hard to get rid of the N urge, but it is possible. We'll do fine! So right Lawrence, nothing like working hard...

    Don't think it can't happen here

    Sparroa, very well written. I see no other alternative than giving up my PAD after This month and jumping fanatically into TAD. Now this Winter, Spring, Summer.. will be left to seriously squirreling away tobacco.

    Dry European Snuff Anyone?

    "Thats nothing to sneeze at" the saying actually goes back to snuff days. A man in that era was suppose to be able to hold his snuff without sneezing if his conversation was to be taken seriously..

    Recommended Starter Tobacco

    Great suggestions! Sometimes it really perplexes me reading other sites that in one way or another recommend to the starter to smoke a blend so mild that it would be just as rewarding as packing a bowl of imaginary tobacco and imagining the taste they want. And in my own opinion there is nothing...

    No more dip :) Thanks!

    Thanks for the kind encouragement. There were a few times I actually considered putting pipe tobacco directly in my mouth, yikes. But, I got past that point thank goodness. Yes, from a young teenager to my time in the Infantry dip has always been a part of it/me. Nice to let it go and make a...

    No more dip :) Thanks!

    I think I finally made it. It's been hard but in a few hours I'll have quit chewing tobacco for one month! It made me crazy for a few weeks, antsy and irritable. But thanks to the pipe and focusing that energy on pipe smoking and learning more.. I've kept my mind off it. I chewed tobacco/ or...

    Don't think it can't happen here

    Yoru, I never said or intended to say that I "accept" high tobacco taxes or regulation. I simply meant to say that tobacco is not going to disappear this second. Getting screaming angry is one thing, but being calm and politically active is a much better way to contact your congressman/woman in...

    Don't think it can't happen here

    Relax a little. I live in the most heavily taxed nation on planet Earth. I can still buy whatever pipe or tobacco I want. for example, 50g Mac Barens Scottish Blend = 18usd. 100g WO Larsen 2011 = 63usd. Yes, we should all be politically active to fight tobacco regulation and taxes, but I don't...

    Am I crazy...

    I've been pondering a lot about purchasing a Dunhill come payday.. But there are sooo many awsome beautiful pipes for the same price or much cheaper. Sure they are top grade pipes, but how much of me wants one just for jumping on the band wagon?? Maybe this summer or I'll keep my eyes open for...
