Interesting video from inside a tobacconist in Japan. Lots of tins. Surprised to see Dan Tobacco blends and GL Pease as well. Fun to see what it's like over there.

Hit the little square down in the right hand corner for full screen if you want to read the tins.
And here are the pipes from the same shop. He opens drawer after drawer. Northern Briars, Dunhill, Ashton, Neerup, Stanwell.

Okay, I’m seasick now and just puked.
Reminds me of Nomura, in Tokyo, which my son visited last year. Very well stocked shop.
Nomura In Tokyo :: Pipe Tobacconists - B&M's and Internet Retailers
My son is in Tokyo and a friend asked me if he could find a particular tobacco blend that is only available in Japan. So I sent him to Nomura, where he found what I’d been asked to find. As long as he was in the shop I asked to him to take a couple of pictures, which I thought might be of interest.

Very cool! I don't think my local tobacconists here in Minnesota have even 1/10th that many tins even if you combined all their inventories together! 
Very cool I got try to check that place out when I go this December.
Anyone know what that Al Capone package at 4:00 is? Their kind of a guilty pleasure of mine. Looks like maybe just a soft pack, which I really wish we had here instead of those stupid wide plastic single stackers.
I live in Osaka and I don’t feel that way. This video doesn’t change my mind. I mean, I’m glad we have what we have here. It’s not bad and it could be worse. But there are some big holes as far as tobacco that isn’t sold here. The U.S. is paradise compared to here. Japan is much much more limited.
