I have a one ounce sample of anni kake and an ounce of butternut burley coming as well, can't wait to try them out.

DrDubzz · 01-26-2009, 10:55 PM

I have 2oz of anni kake, and it came in ribbon form, no cake at all.

it is very good, I'm just curious why it would look so much different

Nick · 01-26-2009, 11:00 PM

Maybe if it comes in a quantity of 4oz. or more they leave it in the cake form.

perhaps, either way, it smells like chocolate cake, and is delicious

my favorite natural tobacco so far, although blackwoods flake is up there as well

and I've got some best brown on deck, need to get to it when it warms up later this week, never got above 20 today

I took this pic of my Fathers old pipes today. They are probably just cheep stuff not well taken care of. One day I will pick one up and give it a try.
I dont think he has smoked one in 20+ years.

Dub,

What kind is the smooth pipe with the bamboo shank that is in the rack?

Also, that tankard in the front of the third picture is nice!

The smooth bamboo is a Bari, danish (paid about $55 on Ebay, unsmoked), she's quite small (super small for a bari), smokes great, it's like a straight Zulu shape, a bit like Cutty.

The poker is a Stanwell no.207, (about $70) they're big and they do them in all sorts of finishes.

Dub

I notice you have the MacBaren limited edition No. 8, do you like it? I have some, but have no yet opened it (as I have 10-15 things open right now). Was it worth the purchase?

Curly Cut · 01-28-2009, 05:48 PM

i've still got a couple left, but the ones i had, didn't like, gave half the tins away...

Mister Moo · 01-28-2009, 06:12 PM

Escudo discontinued?
EMP discontinued?
Nightcap discontinued?
965 discontinued?

Nick · 01-28-2009, 06:15 PM

Look at the lonely tin of London Mixture. It looks so sad.

BigFrank · 01-28-2009, 06:16 PM

hahah nice one there Moo. Me like da escudo too!

DrDubzz · 01-28-2009, 06:39 PM

escudo discontinued?

Nick · 01-28-2009, 06:41 PM

I don't think so, Do you know something we don't Moo.

Curly Cut · 01-28-2009, 09:43 PM

no, it's not. he just lives minutes from JRs cigars.

01-29-2009, 08:32 AM

I thought Nightcap was discontinued too...I am glad I still have a bit of it left, I might need to slow down on smoking it.

Mister Moo · 01-29-2009, 08:48 AM

I'm just another idiot Escudo lemming, running scared when JR says they're not selling it anymore. (Greg mocks me when JR lets me down.) I don't know anything about Dunhill brands that hasn't already been bantered around for the last six months or more. All I know is this: it has been hard to get, the price has jumped and, if they stopped making Escudo (the way it is) today, I'm good for a few years.

It happens that I like the lonely little tin of London Mixture a lot - very nice flavor and easy-easy to smoke - but there are a couple of other english blends I favor and I wouldn't miss the Dunhill version terribly. Fact is, I only had two tins and just sent one to a new piper so he could try a nice-and-easy english tobacco.

The picture? Oh - I dunno. Thought I'd take one big enough for everyone to notice.

Didja? Didja? WTH? It's a picture thread.
