The choice should be simple, "Hamburger Veermaster,the sweetest pure Virginia that I know of."
A great tobacco, and one that will truly give you an idea of how a new pipe will smoke.

it's supposed to look like cumberland but it's lucite.. it's comfortable and looks good with the pipes finish so it worked out just fine.. if it was cumberland it would have cost a heck of alot more, i'm happy mark suggested to go with the lucite. _________________ Nick

| I just finished a bowl of MacBaren Navy Flake in my new brown/gold blast.I am impressed and happy with Tinsky's work.The break in bowl was so good,the future smokes after some cake builds up will be better I feel like ordering another from him,one is not enough for a man like me.

| For you guys who miss seeing Mark's "Today's Work", Mitch's Bengal finish is listed. Very good comparison against Mark's standard bulldog shape.
AND! AND! Mark makes an extra rough coral!! I had no idea. 
Forgot the link.

| | Well, mine came today. Postal services out this way are not fast, but the wait was worth it. I have it in my gob as I write this, a bowl of McCleland #22 smouldering slowly. I have honestly never seen wood like this on any other pipe. If I wasn't in such a hurry to smoke it, I'd take a photo right now. It truly is something remarkable. Mr Tinsky has done us proud. My $ are well invested. Many thanks to all those involved in this project. |

Hi Bubba,
You need to follow the instructions near the begining of the thread. You order directly from Mark's web site.

| I suspect Mark had more trouble with this one than most. It's an extra rough coral finish.
Very nice, don't you think?
