Yeah I placed an order for 5 this morning, and figured I'd throw in 3 tins of Dunhill Deluxe Navy Rolls as well.

@northernniel, have you had the Dunny Navy Rolls? How do they compare to Escudo? Was thinking about checking them out.

Got my ten Escudo tins. Good deal there!
Added two Black Shag tins, one Molto Dolche, one Gaslight, and two oz of Old Joe Krantz for the free shipping. I'm going to be looking forward to this, hehe.
Rather curious to see how the Old Joe Krantz performs in my Boswell jumbo. Chamber is an inch diameter and nearly three inches deep, thick walls, bent rustic billiard. If it is a good union, that would be a blend I could enjoy, and not worry about filling it up with more expensive tobacco on a regular basis, ha.

To me, DLN is sweeter with less tart and spice than Escudo. Both are great in their own way. I'd be hard pressed to pick one over the though. Well, unless like this situation occurs, and Escudo is half the price of DLN.

Thursday is delivery day. Praise be to the Tobacco Gods for their benevolent offering of tinned delicious sweet leaf and low low prices.

Ok, I've ordered a few tins of Escudo and it will be here soon. Now the question, I've not smoked Roll cut tobacco. Any prep required , similar to flake?

Tough to pass this up. I need more Escudo like I need an asshole dead centre on my elbow, but I bought 10. Quite a deal. Nice going Rich.

Went to purchase 10 around noon. Decided to add a few more things to the cart. By the time I got to free shipping the Escudo was sold out. Damn you free shipping.

We are the 99%!
Agreed, we are. That's why I was trying to support my Brother of the Leaf, Rich, who is trying to feed and clothe his hungry children and keep his dear wife in Jimmy Choo shoes.
