Here in bosnia nowadays it's hard to find pipe tobbaco it used to be alot more popular and easy to find but sadly since the demand for it goes down as people now smoke vapes. Now days I only see old people smoking pipes. I remember my grandfather who passed away he used to smoke a pipe and he would grown and make the tabbaco blends himself and his father would do the same the thing is now he's gone and It's very hard to come by here tho recently I found a listing on a local website in my country for pipe tobbaco it comes with 3 packets of Lincoln Cavendish, 1 packet of Stanwell extra mild, 1 packet of troost Cavendish and 1 more packet which I can't identify but te orange and white and it's in the pics and there all going for about 60Km which is about 30US dollars. Can you guys tell me these tabbaco blends are good and what is ussually the price for tabbaco blend in the US or your country?.

“Good” is subjective.
From what you’ve described, pipe tobacco seems to be very hard to come by where you live.
If this is all you have access to, I think the question might be “Do I want to smoke a pipe or not?” If you do, then this might be your only option.

Have you done research about getting pipe tobacco where you are?
If you’ve exhausted all possible sources of quality tobacco and you definitely want to smoke a pipe, this might be all you have available to you so the question is no longer “is this good” but is instead “can I tolerate and afford this?”
These are questions only you can answer.

Troost I believe is long out of production but there are other people here that are much more knowledgeable than I am on this topic. Stanwell is a well known Danish brand in the world of piping but that’s all I can say about it because I simply don’t know more than that.

I wish you the best of luck finding a pipe tobacco source you’re happy with.

I smoked a ton of Troost Special Cavendish (the yellow pouch), back in the day. I used to like it a lot, It is not available in the States.
I also recently (the past couple of years) found a canister of Lincoln Cavendish that I enjoyed a lot. I keep thinking about buying the other one he had, if it is still there.
DSC00912.JPGThese are both all-day smokes - they won't knock your socks off, but they are pleasant smokes. Enjoy!
