    OZ. It’ll cost you a kidney to buy a tin, but that just makes it so much more valuable.

    Elizabethan Match

    Have a look at fairtradetobacco.com. Search Elizabethan or go through the threads on whole leaf pipe blends. It’ll be trial and error, for sure.

    Well, I Think I Found My One and Only Codger Blend

    Any Recommendations on DFK?

    403 is great. But I think that is going the way of the dodo too. OP if you like 1792 but aren’t a fan of the topping, you definitely need to look at GH catalog. Dark birds eye is already mentioned, I’m not sure if it is any different to Kendal Kentucky. Another is dark plug/flake. If you are...

    Putting that aside, someone got a nice pipe. I was too slow this time. Looks more like 1906? Hallmark’s too

    Your best packing tobacco

    I predominantly smoke stuff which comes with a bit of prep before hand. However while travelling I have just been smoking out of pouches/zip lock bags. It’s the first time my young boys have seen me load pipes with a codger scoop and they think it looks way cooler.

    Oh Mah Gaahd... Yet Another Review Of GH Rum Twist
