    Royal Twist latest drop

    Here in Spain we just received some tins of Royal Twist's latest drop. It came as a pleasant surprise to me because I didn't expect to be able to get it (I've never tried it) if not through the secondary market. And I've got two questions about it. Was this batch made pre-STG? And will STG...

    Malevo tobacco from Argentina

    With all the information and opinions about corporate doings and wrongdoings going around lately, it feels very good to be the bearer of good news. Some months ago, I read about Malevo tobacco, a new brand from Argentina that claimed to produce their own perique and latakia and elaborates a...

    Per George Jensen - The Viking Collection

    I'm looking for information on these tobaccos but I can't seem to find any. They are brand new and (apparently) only sold here at the moment. There's also a pdf here that explains the story behind them. It seems that they contain katerini and rustica tobaccos processed as cavendish. I know it's...

    Exposing Tobacco to Tobacco Smoke

    I always fill my pipes and smoke them in different rooms, specially if I'm filling a second pipe and the smoke from the first is still lingering around. I fear that the smoke might affect the flavour of the tobacco in the jars I'm opening. But I see many people keep their tobacco jars in the...

    What Prices Could Justify Contraband?

    Title edited for capitals and brevity. I complain a lot about the speed at which tobacco prices are going up in my country (Spain) and Europe in general. But when I look at prices in Canada, New Zealand and Australia I feel that things might get even uglier in the future. I don't want to give...

    Customs problems more frequent in the UE?

    I don't think it is a good idea to go into details (DM if you want them) but I have the feeling that random searches and such are getting more frequent in the UE. At least in Spain. Is anyone else having troubles they didn't use to have?

    Old Boy Flint Wheel Gets Stuck

    Title edited for capitalization. Please read Rule 9. Hi! I have two Corona Old Boy Lighters and I love them. The only issue I have with them is that the flint wheel tends to tighten the screw holding it sometimes to the point where it's very hard to make it spin. I think it's an issue with the...

    Searching for Specific Tobaccos in the Additives List [Germany]

    As most of you know, there's a web in Germany in which every tobacco sold there lists its additives. I'll leave the link at the end for those who didn't know about it. It's an official source and I think it is meant to be exhaustive. My problem is that I cannot find some specific blends like HU...

    Oriental Tobaccos Spoil Subsequent Smokes

    Title edited for caps and clarity. Original: "Orientals spoil everything I smoke after" It's like a mouth ghosting thing. Lately, when I smoke something with orientals on it, I get a sweet and metallic taste that I don't really like. But two things seem even funnier: It first happened with a...

    Shipping rates change randomly

    I'm having some problems ordering from a particular site notorious for their good service to oversea clients but not very good on the customer service end. I used to order five 2 oz. tins or two 8 oz. tins every month and international shipping used to be 28.05 dollars. One day, it changed to 45...

    Aged tins popping open

    Yesterday I took a box full of cellared tobacco tins to select a few for selling and another few for selling. Most dated from my begginer days and two of those were open, most likely from the gasses generated by the aging process. Both were square ones, one small (Peterson University Flake) and...
