    PCCA Tobaccos

    I see no issues here. McClelland has always been a world class blender. It will be nice to see these blends more readily available.

    well a recent order

    this Habana Daydream is kick ass.. You can really taste the perique and the cigar leaf . Someone wrote almost like smoking a cigar in your pipe. As someone that has actually done that with a few cigar butts I can say that is accurate. Nice spicy smoke The sweetness of the virginias also shows...

    I finally tried TJ's coffee bean zapper idea

    I smoke flakes for the slower burn as compared to ribbon cuts. Even when chopped the coarser cut burns must slower than ribbon cuts without all the relights that may be neccesary if folded in full flake form. Good idea forcoarser flakes like dark star and such that can resemble concrete...

    Altadis Pipe Tobacco Offer at no charge

    Iwan Ries Virginia Flake & Slices

    the slices i belive are PS luxury navy flake and i find those better than the IRC virgina flake. It tends to be a little "boring" a gets a little warm if not played slowly. The slices are a little more spicy with the perique and can be had for cheaper when purchased under the PS brand from...
