Three Nuns
Opened a jar of this abomination which I re-named MacBaren No Name after a year. Maybe i changed my mind. Still same shit. A horrible experience. I gave away one tin. Three more in stock to give as gifts...or keep them in case tobacco is outlawed.- drcarlo

Expanding My Horizons - Need Suggestions
Plateaugay, I used to smoke aromatics for 15 years. Then I discovered flake tobacco. Virginas and perique. However, start with mixtures. My suggestions are to try Dunhill Elizabethan Mixture and/or Robert McConnell Red Virginia. Both are very pleasant and gentle smokes. For the morning and the...- drcarlo

PAD and TAD
As I was 40 years the other day, so I thought I deserved a new pipe, so visited my pipe specialist store. I love canadians, and planned to buy a pipe from Ratrays, Old Gowrie #12, however, I chose this one from Stanwell http://www.danishpipeshop.com/product.asp?product=5587#.U3z2kJSSzlQ We have...- drcarlo

Three Nuns From MacBaren
Now I understand why you don't understand my complaints! I looked into the reviews Kevin mentioned. I think, the blend you have seen the US is the Mac Baren product only. May that be correct? Before this abomination reached you, Orlik made it. I compare it to the Orlik version, which you...- drcarlo

Thank you! A standard pipe cleaner just passes through the draw hole. I do not dear to drill it my self. I am not handy, so to say. If I touch things with tools, they tend to get damaged.- drcarlo

Rattray's Old Perth
Learned friends, Anyone who own a Rattray's Old Perth pipe? It is a wonderful piece, but I have trouble with the smoke flow. I cannot explain it. Can you? I observe three possible problems: 1. It gets extremely easy clogged in the bottom of the bowl. 2. There is a problem with this particular...- drcarlo

There has happened a change in the blend, as the factory changed from STC to Mac Baren. Unfortunately, I have no older tins, so I can't demonstrate what has happend.- drcarlo

Three Nuns From MacBaren
I have smoked Three Nuns for 30 years. It has changed many times, as excellently documented by the honorable Mr. lovercase, however this new production is not nice. When Orlik made it - until about a year ago, it had the correct charachteristics. It is not a bad tobacco in the tin. No, no. The...- drcarlo

Three Nuns From MacBaren
I just opened a tin labelled Three Nuns. This is an abomination. The taste is completely different. The colour is more black than reddish. The coins, or the remains of coins are bigger, the blending irregular. The sweet, fruity tin note is gone. Unfortunately, I have 4 more tins of this...- drcarlo

Placed A TAD! Gaze Upon My Purchases....
Early Morning Pipe! I love it! Try it as a first smoke in the morning, with high quality coffee. I have done that for years and have a dedicated pot made by Poul Winsløv for it. It works well in any pipe, but the pot shape is perfect for it. The pot takes out the best from the lovely orientals...- drcarlo

Dunhill MM 965
EMP is a priceless mixture. I only smoke it in the Early Morning, but the routine cannot be changed. I like MM965, but SWMBO wont let me somoke Latakia heavy tobaccos indoor and I don't like smoking outdoor at home.- drcarlo
