Opening A Tin? Show Us!

[Tate]

Dang, @Tate ! Are you really popping a bunch of tins for this thread, or is this just a collection of pics you had?

Popped them today. Never had any of those before so I want to give them a shot in a clay I got. Wife was out so I set up a little taste testing day

 

[Tate]

The vinegar/jerky smell could just be the Perique and DFK. I've been tempted to crack one of my tins since @AppalachianPipe92 's thread. Perhaps I will soon.

Definitely go for it man! I really enjoyed it. You could definitely be right about that. Come to think of it, the only other tin I've smelled that in was HH Bold Kentucky. Thanks for that!!

Wife was out

I can't help but wonder how many tins all over the world and throughout history have been cracked while the missus was out of the house. Probably an unfathomably large number that would only be rivaled by the national debt. I also wonder how many were cracked with the missus around, and what the comparative number would look like on a pie chart versus the first number. Naturally, I also wonder, concerning the second number, how many of those resulted in a TAD lecture afterward.

I have nothing to smoke while I think about these things, however. Maybe I should crack a tin once my wife steps out tomorrow...

No TAD lectures for me. I showed them off to her like a kid with a new action figure I'd say it's about 60% away and 40% while around for the TCR (Tin Crack Ratio)but because of the free time I got to go for it today

Select Mixture by Smokers Haven.
Scrummy stuff!

A can of HU Louisina Broken Flake and a can of HU Zulu
Yummmy stuff

This thread is actually making me hungry for some reason. Never had tobacco for breakfast but I guess there’s a first for everything.

 

[Sigmund]

I feel that way when I see plugs and cakes. They are baccy brownies!

Exactly! It all looks (and smells) so delicious. But this is probably also the gourmand in me

 

[Sigmund]

I cracked open some HU Flanagan. Smell is devine...like a farm...Hay, sweet grass, some fermented grain. Smokes fantastic. That said, Im going to have to think about this one. Normally tobaccos that are rich and have more sweet notes tickle my fancy. This is an oriental forward blend and Im not very experienced with them. Its a smooth blend and you cant make it bite no matter what.

Think I've posted this photo somewhere from about a month ago, MacBaren Club Blend.

Won't hurt if I post it again

Fantastic stuff by the way.

And an instant favourite, St Bruno Ready Rubbed. Took too long to try this gem.



Might have to adjust my camera settings, these photos seem off in colour.

 

[Sigmund]

HU Fayyum Kake. Im smoking it now. Definitely a nice english. Reminds me of plum pudding but a little more nutty and less "Juicy". A nice full bodied lat blend so far. Smooth as silk.

@Brendan
That suff looks nice. It makes me want to put some on my next order!

This place is dangerous!

I know right! I have liked every blend I have tried that I have seen or been suggested here

Please don't. St. Bruno is vile, and will shrink the size of your genitalia (whether male, or female).

Don't tell that to St. Costanza...

This is an untruth!
I've been on the Bruno since the age of 15 (51 now) according to a longstanding & ever hopeful lady friend, mine has never stopped growing!
