| That is ridiculous. With all the tobaccos in the world, surely one could find something that would satisfy that didn't cost $45 for a 100g tin.
But then again...I am really wondering just how good it is for someone to be willing to pay that much. |

| Hmm, Judd usually has the pulse of things pipe-wise. Doesn't look like he is getting any takers on this one though. |

| I was gifted a tin of this a while back. Couldn't tell you how much tin time it had but man is it good stuff.

| DSK was a great tabak, but I've been able to fill the hole with Stonehaven. Not quite the same...but not quite the same price point today.

Hmmm I recall buying a tin but I can't quite remember how it was...from what I recall it's not "exactly the same" PH's is a broken flake while Orlik's was a nice two tone, almost bacon looking flake of stripes of dark and light brown. |

| The only reason I ever looked at that tin was to push it out of the way to find a something with Latakia in it. I guess there is no accounting for taste in myself either. _________________ Turning the starry decked heavens into a clouded canopy, one pipe at a time.
