    Are there any cigars that come close to the taste of pipe tobacco?

    TopD....PM me your address and I'll send you one of these new Durango smokes when I get them next week. Maybe the two worlds can meet???? We'll see.....

    Big Brown Was Here

    If its pipes&cigars, I agree. I ordered from them Sun evening and received my package Monday afternoon. And that was with free shipping....I didn't have to pay for expedited shipping and I still got it next day. I ordered Esotetica Dorchester & Dunbar and Padron cigars.

    Are there any cigars that come close to the taste of pipe tobacco?

    If you email them they will respond and give you a number to call. They will have the capability to buy directly off the website soon. As of now, they have 3 of the 6 blends available...the Cherry Cav; mocha and porterhouse (English blend) I have samples of each coming. Ron

    Are there any cigars that come close to the taste of pipe tobacco?

    I have not tried them; however, I got in touch with Durango cigars. They have launched a new line of premium cigars that use a combination of pipe tobaccos...from aromatics to an English blend cigar with latakia! Their website is not yet fully completed but if you google "Durango Cigars" you...

    Are there any cigars that come close to the taste of pipe tobacco?

    cigrmaster...you are right....why fight it. A cigar is a cigar and a pipe a pipe. The 2 worlds shouldn't collide..... I just ordered a box of Torpedo Anni maduros. Don't know about you...but I prefer the regular Anni series to the 1926 series..... I still am curious about those Durango sticks...

    Can an open tin of tobacco get "skunky"

    didn't throw it out.....I will try to rehydrate as cigrmaster instructed. But I will give it ample time before I try it again. I just wanted an excuse to pop open a fresh tin of grousemoor. I love that first few whiffs......

    Are there any cigars that come close to the taste of pipe tobacco?

    Harris...I used to smoke Padron Anniversary exclusively. I have a dealer in town who is able to get me most sizes. I agree that they are the epitome of the cigar world, and I favor them to even the Cuban Partagas, Romeo, etc. I still smoke them occasionally...but pipe tobacco they are not. I...

    Thanks for the tips on Cain black label & Brennan's. I'll give them a try....

    Are there any cigars that come close to the taste of pipe tobacco?

    Just wondering. I used to smoke cigars fairly frequently (only occasionally now). Would be nice if there were cigar stick that tasted like a good VaPer..

    Can an open tin of tobacco get "skunky"

    I've learned a lesson...and didn't lose too much money...only 2 tins worth. I'm grateful for the advice, and glad to further my pipe smoking education.... I popped new tins today. Instant gratification...you know....

    Can an open tin of tobacco get "skunky"

    cracking open a new tin of Grousemoor is one of my favorite olfactory experiences.... It's right up there with the smell of fresh baked bread and new mown grass.....

    A Moment of silence.

    ... Be merciful to all those who have died in the service of our country. Console those who have lost their loved ones in the struggle. Help our fighting men to be always clean of heart and therefore unafraid. Soothe the wounded in battle. Sustain the courage of those who suffer persecution...

    Can an open tin of tobacco get "skunky"

    I think the problem was that I had the tobacco in my car & briefcase, intermittently exposed to the 90+ degree heat & humidity. So a very inconsistent environment. The tobacco tastes a little sour & pungent ...perhaps not truly "skunky" but overall not a pleasant smoking experience. I'll just...

    Can an open tin of tobacco get "skunky"

    I have had open tins of Grousemoor and Dorchester now for 3 weeks (in ziploc bags). I knew they would dry out...but I did this purposefully to lower moisture content. Problem is...when I smoke them now...they are "skunky" and don't taste at all like when I first opened the can. I smoked the...

    Are there any good VAPERS & VA blends that do not need aging to be enjoyed?

    OK almost all the VAPERS/ VA blends that I read about (like the classic ESCUDO, various SG flakes, etc.) all come with the caveat that they need "aging" to be fully enjoyed. What are some of the better VAPER/ VA blends that I can enjoy straight from the tin while I'm waiting for the others to...

    Advice on my next TAD Order

    If you liked the SG blends, you can also consider SG Commonwealth Mixture. It's 50% Latakia. and like Jud said...lots of love for Old Dublin.
