    Tobacco (or any other hobby/habit) and Genetics

    So is burdock considered a burley?

    Life

    Actually this is one of the worst things to say to a suicidal person; it belittles and downplays what is a very serious time for this person. I've struggled with clinical depression for over 15 years; meds don't work, therapy didn't work, ECT didn't work so I basically bootstrap my way through...

    20% Sitewide P&C for 24 hours

    I do 80% of my tobacco purchases with P&C and have had good luck with them. Their packaging could be better but everything has come to me in fine shape. Plus I was able to snag Bengal Slices at $8 a tin so happy happy.

    When to Smoke Your Last Tin of a Christmas Cheer Vintage?

    I'd say 10 years and go ahead and open. Tomorrow is not guaranteed so there should be a limit to how long you wait to enjoy these. Of course I just opened one of my 2016 tins just to get a pipe full and jarred the rest. It was quite good and I may smoke the rest of the jar but I plan on...

    Christmas Cheer 2016

    I popped 1 tin of 2016 just to try and jarred the rest of the tin. Damn it was tasty; this one is going to be amazing in a few years. Haven't tried the 2017 yet.

    A question about Davidoff flake medallions

    The tin of Davidoff medallions I'm currently smoking is quite moist; moister than Escudo and LBF that I have smoked. Since it is sold by weight you get less tobacco when it is moist as opposed to drier offerings.

    Tobacco suggestions

    +1 on LBF and LNF C&D Black Frigate....delicious rum tobacco "brownie" you want to eat when you open the tin. Dunhill MM 965...great smooth tobacco with some sweet notes due to cavendish John Cotton's Smyrna....a little smoky, a little sour, all tasty goodness

    If Your House Were On Fire...

    As my cellar grows I now wonder, in the case the house burns, would my smoking room go down to a fine white ash?

    Which Do You Choose First, The Pipe or The Tobacco?

    I choose the tobacco first since my mood dictates what I want to smoke, style of pipe is secondary.

    Where There's Smoke.. There's A Pile Of Tins!?

    For ugly tins, at this time of year when I'm running low on clay targets......PULL! Tins that I like I keep and will make a display later for them in my smoking "lounge".

    Arghh put him in a barrel with syphilitic sea rats; he'll be wishing for his misfit toy!

    My Captain

    Arghhh! Late to the party; I blame the syphilis. Hoisting the Jolly Roger with a cob full of Black Frigate.

    Stonehaven Tins?

    Perhaps they had a bag that tore and repackaged it in tins? Of course that would be an FDA no no; weird.

    Stonehaven Tins?

    Label is too big to fit inside the emboss of the lid.....I think chasingembers brings up a good point: Bootleg?

    Where art thou Christmas Cheer?

    Bought 3 of each and will probably buy more later but saving some $ for when the War Horse Plug is available.
