In my TAD post I made here yesterday, I showed this Savinelli Trevi Rusticated, I mentioned is the first pipe I’ve bought with a filter.

That Savinelli is handsome. All 320's are, but that diamond-ish ferrule is particularly striking. Makes it look like a Jersey gangster's pipe.

I’ll be sure to wear my brass knuckles when smoking it. LOL

Have you tried or had the Virginia Golden Flake? From a little reading I’ve done, this is suppose to be one of their finest…

Here in the States, my tins may have no label like that. Or they say "WARNING: This product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical."

Come right out and be direct, like a German! Rauchen ist tödlich!

Have you see the pics on tobacco labels in the UK before? if you think just the wording is bad enough, guess again…

Here’s a crazy one, a baby with a cigarette in the pacifier. Not sure if they still label like this.

P.S. @gawithhoggarth do you still have to make labels like these for Europe?

 

[Tbaggins]

Can’t have enough 1792..

See, that's just lousy parenting. Seriously! They should just give it an estate Kaywoodie and let the child take it from there.

 

[FurCoat]

I intentionally ignored the SG drop and now I’ve got post drop regrets. Dammit.

Yup, and in case you weren't aware, the fall 2024 blends are by far the best SG has ever made. They ground up unicorn horns and dusted the entire drop, magical shit.
Sorry you missed out.

 

[DesertDan]

Incoming:

2 tins of Scarecrow
1 tin of Squadron Leader (this one has been on my radar for quite some time, looking forward to giving it a test flight.)

Seems I missed this year's Yazoo Witch from The Country Squire. Drats!! Guess I'll just have to pull last year's up from the cellar.

 

[Servant King]

Incoming from P&C:

1 lb. Peter Stokkebye Luxury Bullseye Flake (can't wait an eternity for SP to restock it)
1 10 pack Al Capone filter cigarillos (for wifey)

 

[WirelessSmoke]

I was "getting low" on pipe cleaners so clearly I had to go to Watch City Cigars, because I don't know where else I could find such things.... The two blends are new to me, and I had a bowl of WCC English Ernie-ental and it's a winner so far. MM General cob was an easy last minute add-on for about the price of a tin. Not a huge haul, but a great way to start the weekend!

P.S. @gawithhoggarth do you still have to make labels like these for Europe?

Every country has different labelling requirements, even within Europe so we have to do labels specifically for each country. And then regulations change or the labels have to rotate.

 

[eljimmy]

Dude, me too!!

Hope it's good! It's my first time trying these burnt ends

 

[eljimmy]

Yeah, I settled for a single box. I love 1792, but it's a once a week smoke for me, tops.

Hope it's good!

The warning labels have images from any old source. There was a guy with an amputated leg caused by smoking, clearly.... but, it turned out, he was Albanian and when the communist government collapsed, people stole weapons from the armouries and he got a stray AK-47 bullet in the leg.

Likewise, some bloke on a ventilator and life support, who in fact was a celebrated Belgian gentleman who had been in a coma for umpteen years after some unconnected medical or accidental event.

Lots of images of gross pathological conditions with no history, also some popular images like one similar to Vermeer's "Girl With A Pearl Earring". They just take these and use them whether smoking is involved or not, without the subject's permission, because, you know, it's "for the cause".
