    20% -Peterson 3p for a good vitamin N kick
    10% -Pembroke for some sweet latakia
    10% -Squadron Leader for a healthy smokiness
    10% -Mississippi Mud for the perique spice
    10% -Virginia though I havn't figured out what yet

    Any suggestions?
    Why buy premixed ones?

    Good mix , i prefer a slightky brighter virginias with perique . Peterson Irish oak is one of my favourites .

    What pipe tobaccos you have available there in Bulgaria?
    Nothing at all this is the full list - there is some tasteless Davidov and Erinmore and Alsbo but they are 20 $ a box

    ????? ?? ????: GigaDrinks

    unfortunately the laws in EU Union / why we have to go there , with those guys / are against importing goods from USA and the Taxes are alround 450 % =
    The other way is like other product and like a present from a frend / home pacage /
    Its getting harder here as Smoking pipes declare a content a prise on a box.
    There was a glory days when we were smoking sir Gregory Peace , Dunhill , Esoterica , i have celar and staches . Oh Erebor....
    Now is what we can get from the neares countrys , Bac Maren Scotish and Dan tobacos , Sam Gawith / some people prise their tobaccos hight , but i dont /
    So against the tobacco / and all other / genocide from our governement , we are still smoking pipe .

    From my experience, the only blending that I have really done is using a Burley/Virginia base and then adding to it...

    One blend that was enjoyed by a few was Red Cap (6oz) and a Maduro Cigar (Robusto) chopped up and blended...

    I'm sure Carter Hall, PA or any of the others like that would do just as well as Red Cap...

    And all my other blends were by mistake... and usually they never paned out...

    Pipe at work, few days ago. Erinmore flakes from my warhammer Jirsa. Isokari lighthouse near Nystad SW coast (build 1833 on the background).
