Dunhill London Mixture
My favorite blend is 965, and I am also a big fan of Nightcap and EMP. However I picked up a tin of London Mixture last week and haven't enjoyed it as much- It is pretty moist though and I plan on letting it sit for awhile and trying again.- fr0st

Show Off Your Vintage Tins Here!
I have this tin that was my Father-in-law's. I am guessing it is from the late 40's, it is labeled for use by US Military and he was a Marine in WW2. I use it to carry my pipe cleaners and such. I like the artwork on it: Edited to add: if anyone knows more about when this would have been made I...- fr0st

Hardcastle Royal Bruyere
I bought a new pipe yesterday, a Hardcastle Royal Bruyere straight billiard with a saddle bit, made in London. The pipe was new and the bowl had a carbon coating inside. The wood grain is nice with lots of birdseye figure. I've only smoked one bowl out of it so far, (Dunhill 965) and it is... -
Colorado Roll Call
I had a chance to sit and smoke in the lounge at Edward's on Broadway today. It was my first time enjoying it and I had a great time. It's a nice place to enjoy a smoke with new friends in a relaxed, nostalgic atmosphere. If anyone hasn't had a chance I would heartily recommend it. The guys...- fr0st

I also go to Edwards, and I live in Castle Rock- between Denver and CO Springs. I'd like to meet other pipe smokers in the area and swap tobacco. Does anyone know of...- fr0st

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I'll need to smoke more of these Dunhill mixes, in a couple different pipes and try to pick out what exactly I like about them. I will also have that Sutliff English sampler on Wednesday that I can start tasting. In the past I've enjoyed Captain Black, but...- fr0st

Expert Toby Analyzer Needed!
I'm new to this forum, and I hope it's OK to resurrect an old thread. I just picked up some of this from a local cigarette store, (it was the only pipe tobacco they had that wasn't strongly aromatic). I spoke with the owner and he said he ordered it awhile ago from Altadis, but he didn't know...- fr0st
