[QUOTE="morleysson, post: 23521, member: 53"] Vito, I am astonished that you have smoked the Schipper's in the pouch w/ the green highlights. Perhaps, not so astonished as being genuinely pleased that some other smoker knew of the tobacco. Do you recall the Schipper's Grosse Coupe w/ the brown shading and the ubiquitous Dutch sailor with the clay on the pack? There was only one B&M in Philadelphia where I remember the tobacco being available, in both forms, as well as Neptune, a Dutch flake cut. Neptune might have been Niemeyer, though. What a joyful excursion through Nicotinia. Taking the lead from the pouch drawing, I preferred smoking it in a cutty pipe. There was a powerful astringent or citric aroma in the smoke. A short smoke, but very flavorful. There were two others from the same period that I haven't sen in more than 30 years: Rotterdam Shag, a black birdseye RYO that went very well in a pipe, and Van Nell's Strong Shag, favored by the Dutch writer Jan Cremer.
