Today I had two deliveries: a selection of cigars won in a raffle on another forum, and a new-to-me Savinelli 320 Rusticated Camo. The inaugural smoke in the 320 was GH Kendall Kentucky. It was lovely.
Thats good stuff from the Owl Shop, if you like Latakia then Harkness Tower is something you should pick up next time. Do you live nearby? I'm like 45min from the shop.
-8oz SG FireDance flake
-7oz MacBaren Stockton
-2oz C&D Engine 382

Peretti- Cuban Mixture and Tashkent. I've had Cuban Mixture thanks to @PrivatePiping but Tashkent will be a new one for me.
Huge day at chez khiddy, with a few deliveries from forum folks here and elsewhere, as well as a ginormous snuff delivery from Toque. Looking forward to experiencing tons of flavors and scents in the coming weeks!
Tashkent is top tier.
You can definitely tell it's top tier tobacco.. I smoke a lot of Wilke blends and they're top tier as well.
I was talking before about these graphic images, especially the more morbid ones, if you still have to depict these for any countries? I’m assuming looking at this site from the UK you do...
New estate pipe incoming:
A Mauro Armellini rusticated Canadian, this will be my first Canadian and my second Armellini.

Yes of course, labelling is only going to get more stringent, not less. But every country has their own regulations. Some countries are 40% coverage, some are 85% coverage with health warnings. Some have pictorial combined warnings, some are just text. Some have warnings on the front and back, some just the front. Some have to be in multiple languages, others don't.I was talking before about these graphic images, especially the more morbid ones, if you still have to depict these for any countries?

Sounds like a goddamned headache.
@gawithhoggarth Some of these labels depicted, explicitly say;
’Smoking Causes’
I don’t know what the laws are in the UK, but across the pond, it’s always been my understanding, unless something is proven 100% to always be ‘The Cause’, then it can’t be depicted as such, it has to be advertised as;
’Can Cause’
hmm

I don't think anyone in production has any say whatsoever in the format or text. Our "Smoking Kills Stop Now" mantra on everything is pretty much bereft of comparative risk. Clearly, it's been killing me for 54 years and if I don't stop now, I'll end up dead! Lawks.@gawithhoggarth Some of these labels depicted, explicitly say;

@khiddy oooh, I just bought a Trevi Rusticated 320 a few weeks back. 
I recommend giving the White Elephant Meerschaum filters a go.
It’s to bad there aren’t many 9mm versions sold in the US, most are 6mm. I plan to get a 9mm, even if I have to order from overseas. The 6mm seems a bit restrictive.
Oh, all the snuff, I originally thought, hell no, sniffing anything up my nose, but you seriously had me checking out MrSnuff.
Mullins and Westley Jock's Choice seems like quality stuff…

And I actually enjoyed watching Simply Snuff’s videos, especially this one, where he talks about the Whitby Yards.
And of course I love geography so I had to go dig around over Whitby Yards.
Here’s an article with the same YT video.

Didn’t realize or remember about Capt Cook and Whitby.
I think I would definitely like to try now the Mullins and Westley Jock's Choice, and some of the Wilsons of Sharrow.

Mullins and Westley Jock's Choice 20g
Mullins and Westley is a highly traditional and crafted blend of bergamot and neroli oil that is uniquely mixed as a medium to rich snuff that dates back to the 18th century. All within the form of the famous Jock's Choice, the recipe is based on a London best-loved formula that is over 300...

Yes, what I’ve heard is that it’s illegal for US-based shops to sell snuff online, though you can place phone orders for shipment from the few shops that sell snuff. I hear of a few places in Houston that sell snuff, and I plan to visit next March when I’m in town to get on a cruise. But you can reliably order online from mrsnuff and toqueusa. Shipping is reasonable as well, since snuff tins are considerably smaller than pipe tobacco.I think I would definitely like to try now the Mullins and Westley Jock's Choice, and some of the Wilsons of Sharrow.

If any of your snuff isn’t up to snuff, your liking… LOL
Let me know if you’d want to sell some…
Broke my rule, but for a just cause - UK budget tomorrow, so I just had another delivery before prices rise (as they most assuredly will). 2x 50g tins of OGS and a 50g bag of loose F&T Blackjack - I enjoy my Gold Block 1:1 mixture.
I had a friend visit from Berlin recently and he brought me some tins:
