Mold or plume?

>>15196638
I'm not convinced plume is a thing.
But I wouldn't throw it out. Wipe it down before smoking and keep it away from the rest of your collection.

>>15196500
It's strange to me that people vape when they have tobacco free nicotine pouches

>>15196733
That's how you make mustard gas! But seriously, if there's mold, throw it out. You can kill the mold itself, but it's not the mold that makes you sick, it's the toxins the mold poops out that gets you. Wiping and then burning the cigar might get rid of the mold, but not the toxins. I'm sure you'll tell me you're a big manly man and never get sick, but I'm saying this for the sick of the other anon, not a cheap bastard like yourself.

I work for a school district in the administration office and because the district has a no tobacco on school property policy, I have to be discreet. Pouches work pretty well, though they still make my mouth produce a lot of saliva and I spit quite a bit. The other day my boss came by and I had a pouch in and he kept rambling, needed to spit badly. I ended up having to swallow it

A friend got me a Xikar Xi2 as a Christmas gift, along with a sampler of a dozen cigars.

>>15197250
Some people say they still have to spit with snus. I think they must be letting it get too wet though or not swallowing often enough so it builds up in their mouth which can then be a little irritating to swallow.

>>15198128
They're probably working it with their tongue, getting it too wet too fast like you said. Rather than just letting it sit there and slowly release the flavor.

I'd use Snus more if I could find it easier here in the States. At least in my area, it's pretty much General Snus, or you're importing from Sweden.

>>15196638
Plume. Mold will be fewer, larger spots with tendrils coming out of the spots.

Just wipe your cigar off with a damp, not wet paper towel

>>15199066
Yep, that's how it goes here. The shipping hits hard but it's the same price whether you order ten cans or a thousand. Definitely worth it to be able to try different varieties.

>>15199074
Which site is your favorite for ordering from? I keep thinking one day I'll sit down and order a giant variety box to try what's out there.
I know the Swedes make some damn good white portion snus.

>>15199088
I've tried Snus Direct, Snus Central, and My Snus. They were all about equal.

>>15199102
Gotcha, thanks for the help.

>>15199135
Good luck, pal. Treat yourself to some sometime. The sky's the limit when it comes to flavors.

Bump.

>>15199088
Snus24 was a few dollars cheaper for shipping on top of the snus itself being slightly cheaper per can than most other sites I looked at. They also recently gave the biggest discount compared to other sites for Black Friday.

How does snus compare to normal crewing tobacco like Copenhagen in terms of buzz/nicotine content?

>>15201084
Snus can be much, much higher in nicotine, depending on the variety you buy.

>>15201087
Any recommendations? I’ve been dipping cope Straight/mint/wintergreen for 5 years now without trying anything else

>>15201107
Are you in the US? Go to a Circle K and buy some General Original portion and some General Mint/Wintergreen. If you like that I can make some recommendations on what to import. General is the only actual Swedish snus sold in the US. Make sure to check the date before you buy it. Outdated snus is as bad as a stale cigarette.

>>15201121
Thanks, I’ll give it a try

lel that was too easy

>>15196741
It's because chewing tobacco tastes like shit no matter what, nicotine or not, while vaping tastes great and contains nicotine if they want it. Why would a smoker go for nasty wintergreen shit that tastes like battery acid and moist lawn trimmings when they can inhale vapor that tastes just like Fruit Loops cereal or blueberry cheesecake?

Can i ask why cinnamon flavored chew isnt a thing? Just a nice spicy cinnamon dip.

I think Zyn has cinnamon flavored pouches

>>15203061
I use ON!, but still doesn't explain why it hasnt been a flavor. They have so many alternatives for nicotine that are cinnamon flavored but no actual chew company makes a cinnamon one.

>>15196638
It's always mould, plume is a myth. That said, doesn't look too bad. I'd keep an eye on your humidor though.

>only two days until I can go down to the local cigar store and have my weekly cigar

I'm gonna try a new arrival here. The Larranga Monte Carlo, it's a pretty common cigar abroad but was difficult to get her until recently

>>15202973
If you like snus you could try pic related. It's got cinnamon and some spice.

>>15203224
I love snus but switched to the nicotine pouches the second i started seeing decline in my gum line.
Have you had this before?

>>15203146
We should, that way their autism is contained to one thread

>>15203251
I've been using it a while and have only had that problem when I've used too much. When it happened to me I backed it down a bit and the gum went back to normal.

>>15203393
I originally switched from chew to Teaza. The banging black cherry or whatever its called now. Really fucking good and the burn it gives simulates nicotine. I stopped using it and went with nicotine pouches for convenience. Does it have a nice spicy flavor? How's the tobacco taste?

Been trying to get back into cigars lately. Been a long time. A friend got me a sampler. Pic related is the first one I tried. Felt very smooth. I could taste wood and a little bit of coffee towards the end. I don't know much about flavors yet.

>>15203405
The Red Hot? Nick & Johnny all have a decent balance of flavor and tobacco. I've tried the Red Hot, Americana, and the Crushed Ice. None had overpowering flavor; you could definitely taste tobacco, unlike with something strong like Siberia where it's all mint and no tobacco to speak of.

>>15203430
I just tried to order a can. $30 for shipping 1 can.
Oh well sounds amazing.

>>15203444
Shipping is the real killer. I would definitely order more than one can considering it's flat rate and you'll pay the same amount for one or a hundred.

Bump.

>>15196315
OP here, can I count on someone else to bake from now on? I’m not even 21 so I can’t enjoy tobacco, maybe I’ll come back when I pick up a pack of Lucky Strikes from the reservation

>>15203251
I've seen a lot of people say nicotine pouches are worse on their gums. Were you using strong snus or white portions? Strong snus is more irritating and the white portions are drier than original which can cause some problems too. But I haven't had any problems with regular strength original pouches. Loose snus is also supposed to be better for your gums too.

>>15196476
Ur gonna get cancer anyways faggot why not use tobacco products

>>15196741
Those things are expensive as fuck, and I’ve never seen them in my area even at vape stores. Can only get them online. Vaping isn’t bad, its enough to keep me from dipping and/or smoking, but yeah it does kinda suck. Dipping was fucking up my mouth so badly though I had to stop.

>>15196741
Inhaled nicotine hits you faster which might be what people like about it. And because dip is known for wrecking your mouth people probably think any form of nicotine/tobacco in the mouth will be just as bad.

>>15196315
For me? It's grizzly.

>>15196949
Not sure how much they save your teeth. Maybe they’ll be whiter but just having a foreign object pressing on your gums for hours each day will cause inflammation and make your gums recede. Hell neurotics who simply brush 3 times a day get receding gums.

>>15197243
This type of consumerism is quite embarrassing. It’s one thing to appreciate a finely made product, but to invest heavily in accessories to that product... very effeminate behavior.

>>15197340
Whiskey or scotch with original. If you’re using any kind of mint flavored Snus then nothing really pairs with it except maybe gin or something similarly aromatic.

>>15207056
Hobbies are expensive. It's no different than buying a nice pair of shoes if you run a lot. Do you live like a monk?

>>15198057
Most bourbon falls under the category of “good not great”. From Jim beam and Evan Williams up to Makers Mark, Bulleit, Wild Turkey, even Basil Hayden’s, there’s not a large gap in quality that would justify spending more and $25 a bottle.
Only small batch stuff in my experience has shown anything worth more investment and half the time the small batch stuff is shit. Most of it is literally Jim beam aged with some wood staves for a couple more years and isn’t as good as select batches of Jim Beam for the same price.
The real benefit of Kentucky Straight Bourbon is you know what you’re getting even if you get a bottle for $15. I’ve had several meme “bourbons” from other regions like TX or Oregon and it’s usually disgusting and twice the price.

>>15198341
Marlboro reds so whenever faggots want to bum ciggies off of you they complain about your shit taste

>>15201084
Less of a burn on your gum, less “sharp” flavor, slower release of nicotine but often in much higher doses over time. Also nice to not have to spit often or work to keep the tobacco from spreading all over your mouth.
Dip gives a much stronger punch in the first 10 minutes but Snus will last an hour or more depending on the type and peak between 15-40 minutes.
The biggest reason to switch tho is the health effects. The theory is that steam pasteurized tobacco like snus doesn’t have as many carcinogens because certain toxic TSNA’s are actually made during the fermentation process. Pasteurization prevents the fermentation from occurring meaning far fewer carcinogenic compounds in the finished product. Plus it’s not burned so that’s another level of toxicity you avoid.

>>15202219

That’s probably enough to cause long term problems depending on your genetics. One of the things most people don’t know is that a lot of the cancer caused by things like smoking or drinking comes from the metabolic byproducts your body makes while breaking down tobacco smoke or alcohol. Depending on your genes, you may produce more or less of certain enzymes that cause these highly toxic metabolites to build up, or be efficiently disposed of and that’s mostly what determines your disease risk. That’s why some will smoke a pack a day for 40 years an never develop cancer or drink 8 drinks a day without cirrhosis while others will die young with half that consumption.

>>15207066
It’s more like when pot heads buy $3,000 bongs or amateur chefs get $450 Japanese knives. There’s consumption, and then there’s compulsive consumerism fueled not by quality but by branding and pricing strategies.
Should a wine enthusiast buy a $450 corkscrew? Will that enhance his experience drinking the wine?

>>15207189
I'm the type to buy something cheap at first. I'll use it forever if possible. When it fails, and I want to continue using it, I do some reading on quality versions. Can you use a $5 gas station cigar cutter? Of course you can, and I have, and it worked for a while. But if it's a hobby I enjoy, like cigars, I'd rather get a nicer cutter that does a better job, is built better, and has a good warranty. The blades are sharper and of higher quality steel to retain their edge for longer, there's zero play whatsoever in the action, and the company will replace/repair/sharpen it for life. As for the brand itself, I couldn't care less. All I'm interested in is the function and durability of the cutter.

It's the same with socks. For years I wore whatever was cheap at Walmart. $10 for six pairs type. They were cheap. But they were also cheaply made, they wore through quickly, tore, often came with factory defects, and were made from the cheapest cotton possible. The socks I buy now are about $20 a pair. They're also merino wool rather than cotton, are made in America, are much thicker, and more comfortable, and come with a lifetime warranty. If I get mauled by a pitbull and he chews my sock in half, I can mail it back and they'll send me a brand new pair for as long as I live. Is $20 a lot for a pair of socks? To some people. If they are content with wearing cheaper socks, rock on. For me, they are worth the expense.

You get what you pay for.

Buffalo Trace

>>15198057
Can confirm.
Tastes like dirt. I mean actual dirt, reminds me of playing in the garden in summer and tasting the dried out chalk soil at my parents house when I was a kid. And not in a good way.
Buffalo trace is better, but still not great. Get a decent cognac.

there was this fat guy at a lan center i used to game at and he went by cope-snuff

Anyone tried the Black Buffalo non-tobacco dip substitute? Ordered some because it caught my eye, since it looks the most like actual dip of any substitute I've seen. It's also significantly cheaper than dip where I live, even with shipping.

Kentucky Gentlemen. Its the patricians choice

I bought three different pipes from my local smoke shop (a cheap piece of shit corncob pipe, a cheap little silicone pipe, and a $5 metal pipe), and I got a few grams of the types of tobacco they have in big airtight containers on their counter. Sticking my face into the containers, they all smell really nice and plenty strong, but when I got home and packed them into any of the pipes, I tasted... Nothing. I just tasted smoke, and not even much of that. When I smoke a cigar or puff on my hookah I get plenty of flavor, but for some reason I can't taste a fucking thing out of these three pipes I got. Can someone help me figure this shit out?

>>15209748
I moved outta my mom's house about 15 years ago at this point. I started doing some light cigar smoking about a year and a half ago, and I made a point to always do it outside. Recently I just started smoking inside a bit because it's too god damned cold to sit and do nothing outside. The other day after I walked to the store to do a little grocery shopping, I opened the door to my apartment and walked face first into a flashback of me coming home from school to see my mom vacuuming the living room with the stereo blasting a Def Leppard album loud enough for the whole damn block to sing along.

I don't think I'll ever smoke outside again.

After shipping and tax from cigarbid: $32 for 20. Not a bad deal, honestly.

>>15208906
They have tobacco flavored liquids, but the point is to get you to stay away from cigarettes, that's why nicotine gums don't taste like Marlboros. When I started vaping, the last thing I wanted was a tobacco flavor because that would just make me want a cigarette and it would be real easy to give up and go back to smoking.

>>15208919
I hope this isn't bait cause it's hilarious. Please post a picture of the pipes and the tobacco. Sounds like you bought a bunch of dude weed pipes and some stale tobacco. Get a MM cob, pipe cleaners, pipe tool and an English blend, if you're American then Plum Pudding is pretty good. If euro then anything by Peterson. If you want to give it another go with what you have, pack very lightly, do a false light and smoke slowly. Watch a video on how to pipe, but try to do a gravity fill instead of the 3 pack method.

>>15209514
Plume isn't real. Every time a cigar with 'plume' has been tested, it's been mould. However, unless it's actually inside the cigar and not just on the wrapper, you'll most likely be fine by just wiping it off and smoking it.

>>15209829
Here's a tip, when you order cigars online, don't smoke them for a week. Just keep them in your humidor to settle down and basically adjust to the local conditions. I find there's a large difference between cigars that I have on the day they arrive and even just the next day. I tend to wait for a week or so minimum and some people advocate a month or so. A lot of issues like poor burn, harshness and overwhelmingly single note flavours will vanish with resting.

>>15196315
>He pronounces it Snous or sn-us like a pig american

>>15212129
Another tip, if you're buying a single stick to try out, get two.
If you like it, you already have another and you won't have to try and remember what brand and type it is.
If you don't like it you can give it to a friend or swap it with a smoking buddy.

>>15212129
I'll let the rest of them settle a bit. It wasn't too bad of a smoke, but I cut it clean and that chunk of filler just fell right out.

I want to try some brands of Japanese cigarettes. Was planning to do so on a trip but obviously that plan has been delayed. Any way to get them in the US?

Been trying different cigarette brands in the US:
American Spirit (Hunter, Black, Yellow, Orange, Blue, Light Green)
Lucky Strike
Camel Unfiltered
Marlboro Red, Southern Cut, Gold Label

Favorites to date are AS Yellow, Marlboro Southern Cut

Any recommendations on cigarettes to try?

>>15212511
That actually can happen when it's not humidified properly. Or you might be cutting a bit too high up. Try a punch next time after it's rested for a week and see if it improves. Of course, some cigars are just not made right and with bundle sticks it can be more common than the higher end ones.

>>15209829
They're alright, a decent smoke when you're really down on money. But 32 with s&h is a ripoff. I usually go on freefalls and can get them for about 25 with s&h. On freefall they can fall as low as 19 for a 20 pack. Ive seen things like Nicaragua cream fall to 17, but I think one of the best freefalls was getting some cuba libre ones for about 26 a pack. Its a really good budget cigar, highly recommend.

How do I eat tobacco?

>>15212511
It's a problem with cheaper cigars that are either machine-made, made with short fillers, or both.

In the future try to buy long-filler cigars which are made with whole leaves and not confetti tobacco. They'll also burn longer and have a smoother draw typically.

>>15213121
Meh, I was looking at other places and they were charging ~$60 plus s/h. I was looking for something cheap and as long as they all don't fall apart like that I'll be content.
>>15213152
These are allegedly hand rolled, but they are fumas. Really wasn't a terrible smoke all and all. It's a toro and lasted me about an hour.

>>15213207
Gotcha. If you're on CBid just spend some money buying cheap stuff for fun. A lot of it is garbage, but the thing about a shitty cigar is if you hate it, you don't feel bad about tossing them.

If you like strong maduro cigars, you can pretty often find Man of War cigars on the cheap on CBid. You shouldn't have to pay more than $2.50/cigar for them. Diesel often goes for cheap for some reason even though they're pretty damn decent.

You might wanna try to snag a few samplers too. You'll get a lot of hot garbage in them like Gurkha cigars, but some of the cigars will be pretty decent for the cost.

>>15213223
That's kind of my outlook with it. I paid $1.50 a cigar. I can't really complain.

I'll keep a lookout for those others too.

>>15213291
I always buy my go-to cigars, then I'll throw in something cheap to meet the free shipping minimum, or for fun. Sometimes you luck into something great.

>>15211110
No, I promise you my post isn't bait. I'd honestly love to get into pipe smoking; the tobacco for it is SUPER cheap and affordable, and I honestly think it smells super nice.

I have no idea what you mean by an "MM cob", and I have no idea if any kind of an English blend would be available at my local smoke shop.

Pic related is my silicone pipe. I'll find a picture of my metal pipe inna moment.

What's your go-to?

>>15213353
Pretty much anything AJ Fernandez makes, Padron Anniversario for special occasions, Famous Nic 3000's that I age for a year (they're obscenely good with some age), Bolivar Gold Medals or Bolivar RC's en Tubo for the super fancy occasions, and Camacho Triple Maduros are probably my most smoked.
I like hanging out with friends around a campfire. We'll bring some booze, food to grill, and a handful of cigars each and end up swapping cigars with each other to try new stuff.

Found it. Yes, I know that the bowl isn't supposed to be coming out like that. One of the tobacco types I bought was really moist and it didn't burn for shit. I got frustrated and used my three-flame jet lighter on it and this happened.

I'm not sure where the corncob pipe went, and it's been more than a year since I last touched any of these. I only paid 88 cents for it and the corncob bowl moved around on the end of the stem really easy and the hole that the stem went through wasn't exactly airtight, so I probably tossed it at some point.

>>15213350
Go to your local cigar shop and buy a corncob pipe. Just say, "Hey do you guys sell corncob pipes? Odds are, they do and they'll be $10 max.

You'll also want a pipe multi-tool which they'll also sell. Don't pay more than $10 for your basic bitch pipe tool which will include a tamp, scoop, and a stem punch.

Lastly if they're a decent cigar shop they'll have bulk bins of pipe tobacco in the back. They're sold by the ounce typically. Go back there and open containers and give them a good smell. Buy a few ounces of whatever ones strike your fancy. Take those home and smoke them, keeping note of what you liked and disliked.

That's just about everything you need to know to try the hobby out. For $50 you'll get a corncob pipe that'll last you decades, a pipe tool, and several varieties of aromatic and english style tobaccos to try out.

>>15213404
The shop near me doesn't have a "back". The best they have for bulk is six tall glass jars on the counter. Those were the types of tobacco I bought last time that I said I didn't taste anything from. The only two I remember off the top of my head are that one of them smelled like cherries, and the other smelled strong of tobacco with notes of chocolate.

The smoke just fucking tasted like smoke.

>>15213431
Bleh, if you have one in driving distance, try to find a better shop.
My little cigar shop isn't massive by any means, but they have probably 45-55 different bulk tobaccos, and several dozen different tinned ones.
Buying a little bit of whatever tobacco strikes your fancy is one of the fun things about pipe smoking. You can really find something you love.

>>15213392
That isn't a proper tobacco pipe at all. I know those sorts, they're cheap chinese made rubbish, sometimes even plastic around a metal bowl. Get a proper pipe and learn to pack and smoke it properly, get some proper tobacco and a lot of your issues will be gone. You also really shouldn't be using a jet lighter with pipe tobacco.

>>15209211
I think I’d probably have to use a fuck load of them and even at that price it would be significantly more expensive than vaping. But fuck it, I’ll take a look at my local Walgreens and CVS alike since they’re on the same corner as each other lol

>>15213599
You'd be surprised. The 8 mg hits QUICK. The only downside is it only lasts about 20 minutes. I like the rogue brand best. Slower release for longer

>>15213223
Not him, but adding onto this: Anything Obsidian makes is gold in my book. White Noise being a personal favorite, it's my favorite all rounder cigar at (usually) under 40 a box on Cbid when they have them. Ave Marias are a delight when you can get them under $2 a stick, but with their marketing gimmick on the Divinias and the Reconquistas people usually overbid on them by quite a bit. Another great one (go on freefall exclusively for this) is most La Auroras. I got a box of belicoso 1495 for just under $40. Very pleasant, no draw or unraveling problems whatsoever.

>>15210384
its not a myth. its just dried cigar oils. a similar thing happens with soap. get a wet rag and get all wet and soapy with dawn. whipe a counter top with it so you see soapy bubbles still on the counter. after it dries rub your finger on the counter and you will see a white powder.

are you saying oily cigars dont exist? are you saying those oils dont ever dry?

>>15212121
oh every single cigar has been tested?

what a retard you are

>>15196500
Good deal. Too bad you can't use the cool cucumber ones or mint ones anymore. They're the best.

I have a dead one sitting in my room right now but I'm not spending 15$ on pods.

Been on these recently

>cleared customs
God damn it feels good being a chad

I have about half a tin of London mixture left does anyone know if Peterson is going to start making it again?

Take the fanpill. Smoke next to a window with a fan blowing your smoke outside

>>15215385
I smoke in bed next to my window with the air conditioner pushing the air out my window and I have an air purifier running all day but it's not enough, my pupper still throws up

>>15215422
>Smoking in bed
Disgusting.

>>15215453
Don't comfyshame me

>>15215483
You can be comfy and not filthy.

I change my sheets every week if that helps

You should be doing that anyways.

Thanks for posting. Truth be told I wouldn't smoke from those pipes. Get a Missouri meerschaum corn cob pipe instead. Your tobacco is probably fine. Don't use jet lighter, you want to use a soft flame. Pack less tobacco than you think you need, good luck.

Anybody remember Cope Black? Why hasn't it been back the last few years?

>>15215175
Thank god I refuse to own a dog. I'm disgusted enough just seeing them in other peoples' houses; I don't need one under my roof destroying everything I own and shitting on everything that I need to pay for.

>>15215385
I already try to do exactly that. My computer is right next to my back door, so I can shitpost and smoke with a box fan blowing all my smoke outside. I'm just gonna not run the fan from time to time, that way I can enjoy walking into an apartment that actually smells like home on occasion.

Where my pipe bros at? Haven't smoked from a pipe since the start of the pandemic since I'd like to do it when I go fishing. Thinking of getting a multitool and busting out the pipe and Petersons night cap today.

>>15216708
Swedish imperialism.

>>15216708
Dip isn't a huge part of the market and I see people switching from dip to snus. Apparently it was bourbon-flavored and you can find some whiskey-flavored snus now if you want to try that instead.

>>15214251
A pretty large sample group sent in by some pretty big advocates of plume existing were tested and they were all mould. Not a single example of 'plume' tested has ever been anything other than mould. And if plume is so desireable, why don't cigar manufacturers try and engineer it and cultivate it on their own cigars? Imagine, already plumed cigars, crusty with the sweet flavour crystals you say they are. Right from the box. They'd look striking on shelves and if plume was real, they'd have greater flavour and show age and maturing beyond normal cigars. And yet, the cigar trade which does all sorts of crazy things to make their products stand out and get an edge and add value to the tabacco they make and sell has never done it. Why is that? Could it be that they know that plume is just mould?

>>15214241
Dry cigar oils don't look like 'plume' they just look like dark dust. And if they are leaching out, then you've got your humificiation wrong for them.

>>15209514
>crystalized cigar oils
Salt and sugar can crystallize but I've never heard of this happening with oil. Oil can seep out of something over time but it'll still obviously look like oil, it doesn't crystallize.

>>15209974
Just get a decent air filter and a window vent. It won't remove it entirely, but it'll keep it down and more important prevent everything getting sticky with nicotine down the line. I smoke in a large cupboard set up for the task and I have to clean it regularly before I got the air filter and vent to get the tar off the walls. But then again, i was smoking in there for hours at a time repeatedly, so it may be different with your own habits.

>>15215453
There is nothing comfier than rolling over after waking up, packing a pipe and having a smoke before getting up, getting a pot of tea or coffee and returning to bed for a bit.

>>15217160
>Getting smoke smells in your bedding
Fucking revolting what a piece of trash you are

>>15217256
I like the smell of pipe smoke though. It doesn't smell like stale cigarette smoke.

>>15217152
>tfw mom finds the smoking cupboard

>>15217128
Really? I know more people who dip than smoke. Vaping is on par. I don't go anywhere besides work and the gym though

>>15198172
Don't worry, it hit when I was 19 and I didn't suffer for those 2 years.

guess I'll stick to ordering online, seems to be the only way to get good snus here

>>15217965
Yeah, ordering online is the best option. Huge selection.

>>15217128
Are you some city slicker? Tons of people dip.

>>15217028
Is it just me, or are pipes a cold weather thing? I almost never smoke a pipe during the summer. Summer months are cigar months, I smoke a pipe every other time of year

Just stocked up on pipe tobacco from mainland Europe before brexit fucks everything up.
Feels good.

>>15219061
I love smoking my pipe all year round but it is nice to go for a walk in winter with a pipe or look outside over a stormy day while hjaving a smoke.

>>15219108
Eh, the cost of pipe tobacco isn't really that much better for me to bother buying from abroad. Cigars on the other hand... I currently have about 45 stocked up (been smoking them of course, had 53 to start with) but I'll wait and see if customs starts cracking down next year before ordering again.

>>15198172
I wish they'd raise the age of tattooing yourself to 25 next

>>15219720
easier just to hang needleniggers from lightpoles

Lads I smoked a few cigarettes occasionally as a young lad but it wasn’t until I was about 26 that I started buying packs and then roll my own stuff and let me tell you, my life is changed for the better

>>15217391
>>15218199
I just meant dip is a small portion of the overall market with cigarettes still making up the overwhelming majority of it. And now having to compete with vapes along with snus being seen as a safer alternative, I think it's going to keep shrinking. So you're probably going to see a reduction of what's available without many new dip products coming out.

Fellas should I give up on cigs. Dont care about dying, just like health n shit.

>>15217822
>YEEEEE

>>15221636
Yes. Switch to a pipe and/or cigars if you just like the taste of tobacco. If you want nicotine, then just vape.

>>15197250
I got a box of these and one with Göteborgs Rapé. So far I prefer the latter, it also hits a lot stronger, But both of them have a nice pleasant aroma, kind of like black tea. What flavors should I try next, I'm thinking the lime Göteborgs Rapé.

I also got a mint Nico no tobacco snus for free with my package, not a big fan of that one though.

>>15197340
I drink my coffee with it in the morning. It's one hell of a pick me up.

>>15222727
General is .85% nicotine while Goteborg is 1% so it's slightly stronger. Oden's regular is .9% but some people say it's not great, haven't tried it myself though. Ettan is pretty good, tastes like unsweetened chocolate.

And seems like a lot of people say Kronan is bad but I actually like it, they say it tastes like pickles but I don't taste any dill in it like they claim. It has violet in it so if you like Goteborg which has lavender you might like Kronan.

How cool is rolled ciggs? I smoke these with filters

>>15223737
cringe, real men smoke regular filtered cigarettes not that grape faggot hipster shit what the fuck.

>>15219679
>Eh, the cost of pipe tobacco isn't really that much better for me to bother buying from abroad.

Works out about 1/2 to 2/3rds the price of uk pipe tobacco.... and there's generally better choice.
The mark-up on Cigars in the uk is pretty horrific.

Ever try ordering from america to the uk? Tobacco is dirt cheap even if you take into account the postage. I heard that if you keep it under 200g you won't get bothered by customs

>>15224807
Last time I did I got hit by customs so I'm wary of US orders. Was about four ounces.

>>15212750
Try Phillip Morris Commander’s and Chesterfields if you’re able to get your hands on them

>>15222727
Skruf original white portion and Ettan white portion are the best.

>>15224255
