Pipe Tobacco Tins
I only transferred the bulk flake, because that's the only factory packaging that had paper within the sealed plastic. Their bulk for non-flake cut doesn't have any paper in there, so I keep them as is. Likewise, all my tins, Mac Baren or otherwise, are staying as they are.- Servant King

Pipe Tobacco Tins
I'm with @Briarcutter on this; my tins are just going to stay sealed until I get to them. Sure, it's a roll of the dice, but I just don't have the room to put tins in mylar as a Plan B. As previously mentioned, square/rectangular tins are more susceptible to busted seals than round ones, and of...- Servant King

***What Are You Smoking, October 2025?***
Anniversary celebration today, albeit cut short with an early dinner before the Yom Kippur fast begins. First smoke of the month was Mac Baren Black Ambrosia in my aromatic pipe, a Savinelli Miele 641 KS smooth bent apple. Wifey joined me with a cigarillo. I'd say that after 14 years, we get...- Servant King

Mac Baren Wharehouse
My eyes saw the title as, "Mac Baren Whorehouse." My first thought was, "Geez, no wonder the MB family sold the business! I'd never be able to juggle both of those....uhh...endeavors." My second thought was, "Now that I'm 40, it's perfectly acceptable to get some reading glasses already."- Servant King

Fake tobacco
The rumors are entirely true. I worked on an episode of Mad Men in one of the most important capacities in all of TV/film (non-union background). These are the brand that was used, at least on the episode I was on, which was in late 2012: BUY Honeyrose Herbal Cigarettes Nicotine & Tobacco FREE...- Servant King

Best affordable pipes?
Yep, I second Rossi. Great way to get a well mimicked Savinelli for a fraction of the price, as Savs have gone up considerably in the past couple years (along with seemingly everything else!).- Servant King

How're These Tins Workin' Out for Ya'?
Seems highly unlikely. Most strange things that occur in the recesses of a closet have nothing to do with compromised metal. More like compromised judgment. My oldest of that kind of tin is only about four years, but this gives me something else to think about. And I need more things to worry...- Servant King

***What Are You Smoking, September 2025?***
Avenged some accumulated Scrabble losses vs. wifey with two blowout wins today, then managed to get in a bowl of Mac Baren Burley London Blend in my burley pipe, a Savinelli Porto Cervo 122 rusticated bent pot, before the rain came. Naturally, just enough to turn the mustang dirty (although it...- Servant King

Proposed UK tobacco ban
Ah, so that's what they mean when the say "Get your ass to work!" Unfortunately, bad music and quadriplegia will also be legal, so slight complication there. But we can cross that bridge when we come to it, I suppose. Just imagine everyone at the lunch table talking about why they're in jail...- Servant King

***What Are You Smoking, September 2025?***
Capped off a hectic week with a first time try of C&D Briar Fox in my main all-purpose cob, a MM Dagner Poker. Although I've always considered myself a millennial codger, I may have to wait until I'm sporting a forest full of grey chest hair before trying this kind of blend again. Or when my...- Servant King

New forum member
You are correct, that sub-forum was dismantled a couple months ago. Perhaps too many members were using it to pad their post count with excessive greetings. Either that, or we're all just really, really, really friendly. Take your pick! Welcome to the forum, from the Southern California mountains.- Servant King
