    Tabac Manil’s Le Petit Robin-New

    Apparently it is 30% Semois, and 70% 'blonde' lead. Vincent Manil has apparently been working on the blend for a decade or so. It is named after his son...

    War Horse Plug & War Horse Green

    War Horse Plug & War Horse Green

    Well, they were rushing to get it out as soon as possible...

    What Did Your Fathers and Grandfathers Smoke?

    My great-grandfather smoked Half and Half. Both of my grandfathers smoked a pipe at some point: one smoked a vanilla cherry blend, and the other smoked either Granger, Half and Half, or Middleton's Cherry, depending...

    The handwriting is on the wall.

    It was my understanding that the FDA rules only apply to domestically manufactured tobacco blends...

    Ah Crap, I Like Mixture 79

    I believe that M79 no longer comes in the luxury pouch. It is now packaged in a roll-up pouch a la SWR. I liked the luxury pouch: it reminded me of Victorian wallpaper...which is fitting, since M79 always reminded me of the Vincent Price film, Fall of the House of Usher. M79 is very Victorian to...

    War Horse Green

    I think some criticism of the blend is justified. Other than name, the original Ready-Cut and the current one are two completely different blends. They may have the same components, but the cut and the flavor profile are nothing alike. I can see how people may think that it was nothing more than...

    Ah Crap, I Like Mixture 79

    M79 always tasted a bit like root beer to me...

    War Horse Green

    This was a criticism I recall when they first released War Horse Ready Cut. It was pointed out that both War Horse Bar and Ready Cut had a floral element. The current Ready Cut is pretty much just a strong Burley. Additionally, the original Ready Cut was actually a flake...a ready cut version of...

    The 'New' Three Nuns

    This is true, but at least your high price is due to taxes. Ours are simply the manufacturers price. A pouch of St. Bruno Ready Rubbed costs roughly the same here as it does in the UK...and that's with the low US tax. Mac Baren just sets the price high...

    What triggered the FDA changes?

    America has never been wholesome.. Big business is behind the changes. They want more money, and eliminated the competition...

    The 'New' Three Nuns

    Three Nuns (the current version) is one of my favorite blends. I would smoke far more of it if not for the price...

    Mac Baren: Blessing And Bane

    I am in the same boat. St. Bruno and Three Nuns are my two favorite blends. If I could, I would smoke them 100% of the time. However, their prices make that impossible. I have looked for alternatives, and have yet to find one that is close enough. I have tried the Newminster blend, and found it...

    Apple Tobacco

    Middleton's Apple is good. Keep it cool and smoke it slow, and it will behave. I get more of an apple cider-vibe from it...

    Player's Airman - Survey Of A Long Gone Tobacco And Etc. - (very image heavy)

    A nice little essay. It's a shame that the photos no longer work though. I love reading about old tobacco brands...especially the British ones...
