This thread is a perfect example why this forum outshines the rest. Thank you gentlemen.

That sneaky crazy Zito not only sent me the War Horse Green, but this Richmond Navy Cut I've never heard of...well done Tim...I'm going to open it first.
Smoking seriously harms you and the people around them considerable damage to
That's the translation of the tins painted art work, not paper label.

I'm not sneaky, I sent that as a thank you for what you do for others on the boards. Glad it was something you have not had, enjoy.

I just meant sneaky crazy in a warm and fuzzy way. :puffpipe:

On second thought, sneaky crazy is probably right. :twisted: :rofl:

War Horse Bar in the tin I bought is a crumble cake, not a plug. Are there plans to increase the press? If so, when would it be released?
Also, any plans to release your tobaccos in bulk?
I'm really enjoying making my way through a first tin. I had not smoked anything with a topping so complex yet so well integrated with the tobacco, which is also tasty and complex. Its closest relative might be Condor, but to me Condor's topping is only rose geranium.
I also read that the nicotine is as fierce as rope, but given what I usually smoke, in comparison it seems tame.

saltedplug, the War Horse Bar and War Horse Green do behave like crumble cakes which makes for a very easy loading process. We have asked the manufacturer to age the products a bit before tinning so the toppings drop off a bit and hit the mark that Russ O desires.

At this time there are no plans to offer bulk.

Thank you for your reply.
I would wish for a plug as I enjoy getting my hands dirty by tobacco as it as prepared back in the day, yet as you say perhaps the lesser press of a crumble cake and its ease of loading provides the best of both worlds.
Perhaps the "staggering" amount of blending required to hit the mark was necessary to achieve such a perfect balance of several tobaccos and several toppings. Everything fits. Congratulations to Mr. Ouellette!
Thanks again, Mike

Glad you enjoy it. I do too. I'm also enjoying the Green. Different taste profile and as satisfying as the Bar.
