Hello and welcome from West Virginia, USA. What is your favorite pipe, tobacco and your favorite food to prepare?
VaPer and Burley based lover in general, I'm gradually losing interest in English based mixtures, probably because I was a fan of the long gone McCllelland tobaccos and the surrogate Latakia mixed in the recent other brands doesn't taste as it used to be. My easy to find fav today: John Cotton's Double Pressed Kentucky even if is US produced and not in the UK. My white whale fav: Stonehenge, I run out of it some months ago and I think it will remain in my memory as the best tobacco I ever smoked, even better than the original Bengal Slices or Smoker's Haven Exotique... but in recent ebay auctions it is offered at outrageous prices and I don't think I'll ever buy it again.
Well I was born in Gallipoli, Italy so my fav are seafood dishes!
Salve Brando. I had no news from you since the foro. I see that you left Italy again. Benvenuto.
Salve amico mio! I went on hiatus from the forums some years ago but I'm back now!
Welcome bro! What sort of pipe tobacco can you get in Colombia?
None... I use to buy my tobaccos from the US, shipped to Miami and then forwarded to Colombia, occasionally the Customs open the packages and block the shipment but hey... finger crossed each purchase
That’s a shame. We live with Colombians and they tried to find some pipe tobacco for me there when they came back from visiting home. I had half wondered whether there would have been some sort of rustica rope made by the indigenous peoplesNone...
