    Auntie in England. What Should I Do?

    She'll be fine bringing you back a few tins of something. At first, I thought you were going for a larger scale operation haha :)

    Auntie in England. What Should I Do?

    Yeah if it's not agricultural or food product, then you just have to claim if you are bringing in more than something along the lines of $300 worth of product.

    Lakeland Dark in a clay, having a lager and watching the firepit in the yard. Happy Saturday everyone!

    Auntie in England. What Should I Do?

    If you keep her 'mission' reasonably conservative , it's just a matter of customs claims (keep it within the claims limit). That said, they may consider tobacco a food or agricultural product, which dear old Auntie would be obliged to claim, lest she actually be considered legally a smuggler...

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2021?***

    I agree and that's one of the few I can reliably get on this side of the pond. It's quite good in anything really,

    Something To Blend With Granger

    I like Granger as-is, but seeing your post, I tried mixing it with some Old Joe Krantz Blue Label (to me, a better Pegasus), and it was indeed quite good!

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2021?***

    I've really come to appreciate clays after my first one a few weeks back. Number two is on it's way! A Markus Fohr Ship of the Line. That will be my first "all clay" pipe. The one I currently smoke, Markus Fohr Aluminum Band, has a 'regular' bit attached.

    Old Joe Krantz Blue Label in one of my clays. This has become my new 'Pegasus'. Or you could say Pegasus was my old Old Joe Krantz Blue Label :p Have a fine evening (or day depending on your time zone) all! EDIT: I might add, you could call clays my new cobs, or cobs my old clays while I'm...

    If You Smoke Aromatics Is It The Tobacco You're Enjoying ?

    Personally I've never found an 'aromatic' I've enjoyed much (referring to blends that actually are declared to be aromatics). That said, I enjoy Prince Albert and Granger, both of which definitely have some light topping but are primarily about the burley. I would call those my aromatics.
