Howdy Jim,

Glad to see you back!

Pipes and Cigars currently has Royal Yacht on sale @$7.99 a tin. Now aren't you glad that you returned :).

Regards,

I'm sure gonna try,It does have a bite.it's kind of strange though.Usually,when I get tongue bite it is right up the center of my tongue.Where the steam rolls.This though is thru out the mouth , like eating chili's.Seems to have a strong peppery taste,at least that is what my brain is saying.I tried cutting it with a burley blend at 50/50 but it's still got quite a lot of bite to it.I'll try and bigger difference say 75/25 to see if that does the trick.

Thanks, Pete! I'm coming close to needing a case of pipe cleaners, so maybe I'll find the energy to order some.

The sparse reviews in so far on M28000 are starting to sound hauntingly familiar, much like those for its namesake, M79.

Of course, its absolute smokability might be essentially the same if it was 354.430379747 times better than M79.

Brother Freestoke - so good to hear from you.

But Mixture 79? Never again. Until I do. I keep things classy with my lovely Ennerdale if I need the type.

Now I want a bowl of Ennerdale.
