[QUOTE="DrumsAndBeer, post: 496428, member: 2403"] I guess it's been a while since I've opened a fresh tin of Haddo's. The last tin I popped was from 2011 and it definitely wasn't shag cut. There are a handful of thinner cut blends that I love. Some of the D&R mixtures like Three Sails are great as long as you treat them a bit different. One of the things I love about shag cuts, is that they are excellent for quick 25-30 minute smokes with no wasted tobacco. Vincent Manil's Le Petit Robin is some of the thinnest cut tobacco I have ever seen. The stuff is like peat moss, it burns quick, but damn the flavor is immediate & outstanding. With thinner cut blends just be sure to pack the tobacco more firmly than normal and take your time, long stemmed pipes help too. [/QUOTE]
