    Erinmore Balkan Mixture

    You welcome mate: I am honoured. BTW, this tobacco is quite expensive in the UK. If you want to buy some try Spain instead.

    Who Wants To Review My Holy Grail?

    What is the name of this blend?

    Murray's Royal Yacht

    Those who remember this tobacco and truly appreciated it will probably miss the finely black ribbon cut that was so characteristic of this blend. Not that I don't like The Scandinavian Tobacco's new blend, but I find very little resemblance with Murray's former blend. For one thing, the pungent...

    What beers are you drinking with your pipe?

    I like San Miguel.

    She Does not Even Singe the Bowl

    Gingers are OK too, but I like them all (brunettes, blondes, etc.) insofar they don´t singe the bowl.

    So am I, but Crusader has not complained yet, so I guess he'd be acquiescent.

    Erinmore Balkan Mixture

    I live in the UK, so I am not sure whether this is available in the US.

    You are quite right.

    Southerners...Civil War......GITT.

    One of the issues discussed back then was if the central government could claim to have rights none of the union members had for themselves. This is a very important issue closely related to the idea of "nullification." See Compact Theory. About the economics of the Civil War I recommend to...

    Southerners...Civil War......GITT.

    Not that I care that much, but what's with the ad homimen? If you want to point something out, I am perfectly fine with that, but why are you attacking the character of the person when you should be focusing on the argument? Do I need to remind you about the forum rules?

    SG Squadron Leader

    I did not like the unevenness of the flakes, so I was wondering if these were the same.

    SG Squadron Leader

    Can you post a pick of the flakes? I have tried SG Balkan Mixture and I thought it was awful.

    Erinmore Balkan Mixture

    I am smoking this now as we speak. I find the tin note quite pungent. I am a regular with English/Balkan blends, and this particular one seems to have a nice combination of oriental and virginia tobaccos which I find quite balanced. I cannot detect any toppings or added sweetness at all and it...

    Well, in that letter I posted above Lee himself says we don´t need a war to abolish it.

    She Does not Even Singe the Bowl

    You welcome mate: red heads are my favourite ones too, and this particular one, does not even singe the bowl (she is as good as gold).

    Southerners...Civil War......GITT.

    You said you wouldn´t. Anyway, we are not fighting, but debating. We should not take things personally. I might be wrong like you said, but I mean you no harm.

    If slavery was an issue, they should have put their money where their mouth is.

    What about further strengthening the power of Washington over the nation states? The whole idea was to gain jurisdiction over the nation states to be able to tax them accordingly.

    Southerners...Civil War......GITT.

    I think you should probably share with us all.

    Southerners...Civil War......GITT.

    The Civil War had nothing to do with abolishing slavery. The war was fought with only but one purpose: to further strengthen the power of Washington over the nation states. This is a letter that Robert E. Lee penned himself: it was written for his wife to express his position on slavery and the...
