    Curly Block before Wessex made it.

    Ah, that's it! I remember now the first one I got was Heinrich's Curly Block

    Curly Block before Wessex made it.

    Thanks! Looks like I should go ahead and cut off a little of the STG version as well.

    Curly Block before Wessex made it.

    I just broke out (as in cut off a length of) some Curly Block I've had for some years now. I have a newer jarred Curly Block that is "Wessex Curly Block". I recall the Wessex is a little different, but I can't remember who made it prior to them (even though I bought one, lol). Tobacco Reviews...

    When Did Petersons Switch To Round Tins

    Thanks! That's about what I thought. Now it's just a question of crack it open now, or wait until it's 20th birthday :)

    That sounds about right.

    When Did Petersons Switch To Round Tins

    I've found an old tin of University Flake in my basement (I use to cellar tobacco all over the place down there. It would have been purchased sometime after 2005 but probably not much later than 2009 or so. It's one of the older, rectangular tins with no tobacco warnings (here in the US), same...

    What is Your Favorite Blend in the Morning?

    Burley but not any particular blend. I primarily smoke burley blends anyway, but with coffee I definitely prefer burley, and coffee is part of the morning for me. Most often it's Five Brothers, Old Joe Krantz (or OJK Red or Blue) or Wilke Wall Street. Ribbon or shags or cakes for the...

    ***What Are You Smoking, March 2024?***

    This morning's 'coffee and cob' is Wilke Wall Street. I don't normally mix two blends, but for some reason, the idea of trying a bowl of this mixed with Old Joe Krantz just popped into my head.

    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2022?***

    SPC Hood Canal in a Nording Spruce. I don't smoke Balkans much, but when I do, I find this one hits the spot.

    4Noggins - Tobacconists - Missing In Action?

    When they changed management, I experienced orders wherein they basically sold me things they didn't actually have (yet), resulting in weeks of non-answered emails. Other times they were quick (if they had the product in stock). So it _seemed_ like they just take any order, regardless of...

    Lettuce Outlasts British Prime Minister 💪

    How about Boris wearing lettuce on his head? Split the difference. Also would at least make for entertaining press conferences.

    Weird Question, but want input (nicotine pouches)

    Absolutely -- look into Swedish snus (the real thing, not the crap sold as Camel snus or whatever). Real tobacco (pasteurized), spitless, doesn't tear up your gums, and provides a smooth, steady nic rather than the sudden blast then throw it away nature of nic pouches. Worth a google. It's...

    What Are You Smoking, October 2022?

    Wilke Wall Street in a Country Gent. Such a well done blend for it's simplicity.
