Status of 1792

[kcghost]

I used to really like 1792 but went with other tobaccos as time went by.

C’mon, man.

Very Presidential.

IIRC, you took up pipe smoking back in 2019. That's around the time some of us started questioning changes in GH blends.

I don't recall anyone wining about G&H back when I started. The only complaint was lack of availability. Now it's all back and readily available, it's apparently "not the same".

No dog in this fight as I only got into Lakelands a few years ago, but I think they’re all lovely just as they are. Any more “Essence” would not be pleasurable for me. Nobody likes change, that’s for sure.

My father and most of his entire generation would only buy the little six ounce returnable bottles of Coca Cola.

Coke finally matched Pepsi in the size of bottles, after World War Two.
——-
Pepsi-Cola hits the spot,
Twelve full ounces, that's a lot,
Twice as much for a nickel, too,
Pepsi-Cola is the drink for you.
——-

So long as the bottlers took bottles for return and refill Coke had to offer six ounce bottles. At the end they cost more.

The theory was the little bottle had more fizz.

I agreed they did, but I bought the big ones.

I can’t really imagine anybody messing with a successful recipe for a major brand trying to improve it, but I suppose they might.
