    Are any retailers online, still selling the Macbaren Capstan?

    Not sure if you're still looking but there's currently a 5pack of Mac Baren made Capstan Blue on tinbids and the current bidding is less than retail of the STG made.

    Travel to Mexico City / Smoking Laws

    I had no idea and we just booked a trip to Cabo. It looks like it's no joke, either as they like to enforce it with fines. Cartels? No Problema. Smoking? Pay up sucker.

    What is the Nova shop online? I don't see it in the list of sponsors on the side. Thank you.

    Bravo to them! It takes a high minded person to put their differences aside in a moment like this.

    Penzance look/feel

    It's been forever since I've been able to buy a tin, but the first thing I noticed is that it's mostly loose with crumbled flakes. When did it stop coming in layered flakes?

    What are You Watching? [2025] Please Rate 1-5

    Solid 5.0. I watch a lot of movies; many of which are decent. This is the best movie I've see in a while though. It holds up very well considering the age. I've known of the movie and book in forever, but this was my first viewing.

    Your best packing tobacco

    A fine shag cut works best, or easiest, for me. I've got some (current production) Balkan Sobranie open right now, and that is about as goof-proof a cut as it gets for me. For blends much coarser cut than that, like flakes or coins, I typically put in a hand "spice" grinder for a few twists.

    Magic Is Real

    I read "insulting tirade" as a mea culpa. Apparently I was wrong there, too LOL. The reason I posted the response was because if he had you on "ignore" then he wouldn't see your subsequent posts but my post gave him the opportunity to confirm (or refute) my interpretation.

    Magic Is Real

    I took it to mean that he (chasing embers) was thrown off some sites, and so he now has some people on ignore here because he dislikes their posts, so by not seeing them, the temptation to flame them doesn't present itself. I've got a few people on ignore and am sure it's more than just me and...

    Jim's Watch City American Cut Plug Mixture Review.

    It would make stocking up more tempting if more bulk blends were offered in those Mylar (cellar-ready) bags. I would rather pay extra and get blends in either 4, 8, or even 16oz increments.

    Jim's Sutliff Maple Shadows Review.

    Smoking Pipes website: Sutliff's Maple Shadows is a limited-release, seasonal blend inspired by the eerier aspects of the Fall season. FWIW, there's a 5 tin limit, as well.
