    Is This The End Of Pipe Show Blends?

    Couldn't a pipe show come up with a blend and just release the recipe to those attending? Have a table where the basic leaf ingredients and toppings could be purchased and the buyer would create the blend thus getting around FDA regulations.......just a thought as I sit here sipping on a cob of...

    499 ... And 500.

    Slight miscommunication there, you need to send free sample tobacco to all purple members. :mrgreen:

    FVF Group Tasting Sample Reviews

    Time for my review, I smoked both samples in a MM General cob. The fresh sample I microwaved for 12 seconds to aid in drying it out. I tried the fold and stuff method with the fresh but had better luck cube cutting it. The fresh had bright grassy flavors that got a bit sweeter the longer I...

    Passing your pipe collection on to someone like your son.

    If you have no one to give them to you can always leave instructions to have them donated to the forum. A member was working an a project to recondition pipes and give them out with tobacco samples to new pipe smokers......shantiques I think.

    FVF Group Tasting Sample Reviews

    Mine arrived today. The smell is intoxicating. The fresh FVF smells of raisins and dark molasses/blackstrap molasses. In the aged the scent isn't as strong, hints of raisins but more of a fermented almost a ruby port like quality. Smoking will commence tonight and I'll have the reviews up in...

    Luxury Bullseye Flake

    For me LBF is a bit less than medium nic hit and I love the flavor. Like many on the forum I have a box of LBF and LNF on the way celebrating the 20% off sale. I find Escudo a bit more peppery and not as smooth fresh. I did get to sample some 5 year old Escudo and it was much better...

    Quality Of Tobacco - Bulk VS. Tin

    This is an interesting question due to the FDA rules. Retailers used to be able to measure out bulk tobacco and bag it for the customer. Now the manufacturer has to bag it and then send it to the retailer. Retailers can't rebag tobacco anymore so does this mean bulk will be fresher now?
