cmdrmcbragg asked:

... have you had the Dunny Navy Rolls?

How do they compare to Escudo?
They are very similar ... but cost less, particularly with a discount such as this one.
hotshot asked:

I've not smoked Roll cut tobacco.

Any prep required , similar to flake?
I just finished a bowlful of Escudo and I just fold and stuff ... works well.

Thanks sfsteves, one more quick question, Is there any drying that needs to be done, like the Virginia Flake?

Those kids better be working double time because they have plenty of other orders to process since Peck was limited to only 10 tins (as far as we know).

Hotshot, I just open up the tin and go. If it is a brand new just opened tin, maybe give it five minutes or something. Your mileage may vary - perhaps experiment a bit with the drying time.

I dry all my flake tobacco, including Escudo, but that's just my preference.

I will be cellaring three of the four tins I get. BTW, you're all welcome for me not buying 10. That's six tins someone else was able to have ... like Peck, but we all knew he would get in before the lock.
