Well if Black House is better than H&H Ambassador's Blend, (and I hear it is), no one will be taking it off of my hands :nana:

just started in on my Back house order from P&C. Oh yes this is going to be a goto blend. Light enough on the lat that it doesn't burn me out but heavy enough to taste it. AH only an hour left to go before lunch break and I can pay homage to the black house. So Where do I sign up for black blood membership?

Uh ha! Following the Blackblood Brotherhood and singing the gospel involves sending out samples to heathens? I'd volunteer for the proselytism ;-)

Just read this whole thread. You guys had me rolling. I have to try this stuff now. I don't think I have tried anything this potent yet though, so getting a whole tin might be too much for me.

You can now "like" Black House on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/blackhousepipetobacco
Still no luck with my tattoo guy. I may have to find another artist.

Oh my goodness!... it actually has its own FB page :lol:
Well I went ahead and liked the page, since this is one of my favorite all day smokes (along with Nightcap and PS LBF)
So Baron... the difference is very little on the Bulk version? I like you idea of keeping my 2 closed tins cellard and picking up some bulk to jar and use for all day.

It's the only way I can keep from opening the tin and smoking it! I never noticed any real difference. Russ has gone to lengths to make sure the bulk is as good as the tin. I'm hoping they get some more in soon, because I want to get some at the 20% discount.

I'm with you guys in spirit, you gotta know it ... I can't go changing my sig until I've puffed the stuff and given it my personal vote of approval.
Someone here on the forum is going to share their stash with me if I can wait until after Christmas.

I've started working with the tattooist and have been drafting some artwork. Here's how it's gone so far. Ultimately we'll have a viable rendition of the art that will look good on skin and have the detail that I want.
Here is a rendition of the original castle from the tin art. I added a real moon in the back and messed with the color a little.

I also have a rendition of the castle that I drew myself and it has a little more contrast. I also put the name in the moon to balance it out a little.

Last I took an actual Balkan castle and moon and used them in my own rendition of the art using photos instead of drawings. I kind of like this one the best. It seems like a lot but my artist has no problems reproducing a photo of either people or objects on skin.

I like the castle you drew, it reminds me of a woodcut. However I like the logo better on the bottom, not in the moon. Either way its gonna be pretty badass!

Just my 2 cents.
