[QUOTE="kilted1, post: 58426, member: 540"] Penzance was an oddity to me. I really liked it at first, finding it bold yet muted somehow. About half way through my only tin however it turned on me. At least one other here has had a similar experience. It ghosted several pipes for me as well, though I didn't suspect any topping or casing. I recall Penzance to be quite oily in the tin, to the point that there was actually oily residue on the wax paper tin lining. For me at least, these oily properties didn't clear up even when resting a pipe for several days following a smoke. This seemed to me at least to accumulate and ghost the few pipes I'd tried it in. Fortunately, the ghosting was easily remedied by application of other (for me) more agreeable mixtures. I really wanted to like Penzance as it is enjoyed the world over by many a pipe smoker. Sadly I didn't, but that's all the better for those who enjoy it. You'll have no competition from me for the odd supply issues some have noted. [/QUOTE]
