I had to go with something not as fancy as a cob. This golf ball meerschaum cost me about $5 in Turkey, back in 1983. I'm smoking a random blend of VA Bright Cavendish, One Sucker Cavendish and Krumovgrad.

I sometimes watch the youtube channel "stuff and things" and he also mentioned that it is a pain to get a tin of this tobacco.Unfortunately, I can not obtain any Samuel Gawith anywhere. It’s always out of stock. I like trying some of the commercial blends just to see if I like them and then try to replicate them. Most of my blending experiments end up in a bowl all mixed together and I end up with a tobacco goulash that is either palatable or unpalatable. Refining my taste has always been a challenge. I always resort back to a Va. Per. Base blend that I am happy with and then add from there.
I would recommend this if the Options available to you. Get a pound of “ WLT” Dons Virginia and a pound of his Perique and experiment with it. To me this is a little piece of heaven.I sometimes watch the youtube channel "stuff and things" and he also mentioned that it is a pain to get a tin of this tobacco.
It surprise me a lot that they dont export more to the states because they have a very good reputation and would sell their stuff quiet quickly i guess.
I have to admit that i haven't had any vaper yet. Anything to recommend ?
I also have to buy bobs recommendating he gave me in this thread a few pages before.
To be honest i played with the idea to order some leaf. But i would have to order at least a few things because i the shipping will be less per item if i buy for over 80 dollar shipping ( which is like 4 or 5 different leaf varieties). But after that you are much cheaper than if you buy the same weight in commercial blends.I would recommend this if the Options available to you.
