Anyone have a nice capstan blue like recipe? I dont even know how capstan blue taste like because i dont know why but here in the Netherland it isnt being sold anymore. As the Retailers say it isnt being made anymore what is strange. I only have a capstan blue very old tin with tobacco. It could be from the 40s. I smoked it but it doesnt taste i think like capstan anymore because it was a put in a box with all kinds of tobacco. But it only has than old smell and taste. LIke old churches or old pool rooms.
Does anyone know perhaps a subtitude what taste like capstan? Maybe Troost slices?

All currently manufactured pipe tobacco (so far as I can determine) contains added humectants, and possibly added flavorants. Mac Baren is particularly guilty of adding such non-tobacco ingredients to their pipe blends. Some pipe smokers like it that way.
