Hi all, I was a regular on this forum (but can't recall my username) around 2010 - 2014 then went onto vaping... I've now comw full circle and having got rid of all my gear for a pittance back then (over a dozen factory pipes and tins of backky and tools) I'm starting anew,

I've bought 2 Savinelli pipes to start off with and now I live in Spain, there is a very limited range, mostly a selection of Mac Baren, which at £6 for 50g is way better than UK prices.... pipes are expensive.... £170 for a Peterson Standard 302).

I have 2 questions for the knowledgable... what is the closest Mac Baren to Peterson's Nutty Cut (which I believe has since been rebadged to Special Blend)?
Also, is there an EU (not UK) shop that does mail order as the limited range here in Spain may preclude me from finding the right tobacco for me and UK postage to Spain is a bloody nightmare?
 
As I recall I discovered several vendors in England and Ireland that shipped internationally. Also Switzerland. Just google and look at their websites. Be very careful of Spanish duty fees, tariffs, etc. I have no idea what the import fees would be but if you were in England as an example it would cost you a damn fortune to buy a USA tin and have it sent to you. Customs checks everything.
 
Welcome aboard. :)

I know of no equivalent for Nutty Cut at MB. Its casing is rather unique and that could explain why.

As for EU vendors, it looks like a lot of governments, under the EU Parliament's legal pressure, have banned internet sales.
