Thanks. I have never placed an order by the phone for tobacco but it seems that is the only way to get the best products. I will give it a try. :cheers:

I have looking for Boswell s Northwoods but all the retailers I have searched dont have it even listed. Where do you get that stuff?

17.5 bowls!! Well, that is good news. I was expecting 10 bowls was a little high but maybe you are right, I will revise that assumption. About prices, if you live in the USA I guess you can pay less for tobacco even with taxes included. For me I have to paid very expensive shipment charges...

I woke up this morning with the idea of planning what inventory of pipe tobacco I would need to cover my smoke habits for some years ahead. However, I found some estimation problems along the way. For instance, How many average bowls can I get from a tin of say 50gr? What would the cost of an...

Obelus, thanks for the handy list of different tobacco. It will very useful next time I dont find a particular blend for sale and I need alternatives.

I am going to smoke some Penzance at noon. But because I am at my last tin of Penzance, I will have to place some other tobacco at the bottom of the bowl to make last the little stock of Penzance I have. :oops:

Yes, they can. I just ordered 6 tins from cupojoes, shipment was $49.95!!. But anyway, when you are overseas you dont have much choice.

Interesting comments and information. Ebay is a good source for almost everything. If I can remember well, you were actually able to buy cigars at ebay a few years back. Now, nobody is selling cigars at ebay.

Excellent point, CLVR. I also believe the relaxation factor could help your health in a very significative way. After all, first cause of deaths among the male population are heart attacks. On weekdays, I usually smoke after lunch at a park just accross my office. My work also improves in the...

Blackhorse, Great initiative and I am all for it. Actually, I have been experimenting on my own without much knowledge from the tobbaco makers. Thanks for the references. According to Greg, almost all tobaccos are cased ones. It was really a surprise to find out that the flavors were put...

Duke, very inspiring display of jars!! :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Romeo y Julieta Mille Fleurs, Partagas Corona and Ramon Allones Small Club. All these are cigars that I can smoke everyday.

:) :affraid: :) :affraid: Mixed feelings about your story. Laugh, fear but mostly very amused.

For me it is a Marxman. I took it to my office and and it is the one I am using the most. And gets better everyday!!!

It probably is!!. For me Balkan Sasieni is anything but mellow. I tried a tin that I kept for 8 years and the strenght was still there.

I still have the old stuff, Nightcap and Apperitive, and I love it. I have not try the re-released versions. I really loved the old stuff because it was kind of mild and distinctive. Nowadays, tobacco usually comes with some added strenght. I hope this is not the case with Dunhill s.

For me I try to limit my pipe smoke at once a day. Sometimes, I make the point I am not addicted to nicotine and I skip a day or two. And actually if I skip a day or two, I tend to enjoy more the smokes thereafter and enjoy more this hobby knowing that I am in control.

Hello Brando. Welcome. I live south from you in Quito. Same problems here, you can not get any good pipe tobacco. I had to open a mail box in Miami only for buying cigars and pipe tobacco. Next time in Bogota, I will make sure stop by your restaurante.

Yes, I believe tobaccos are better after a few days you have opened the tin. It is better to give the tobacco time to lose some excess humidity on its own without using any heating device.

I discover a great beer when I was visiting Fisherman Pier at San Francisco, it was a belgian beer called Chimay (the red one). It is a great red ale. Too bad I can not find it here and beer is just too heavy to order by mail.
