    I have not heard of Condor.
    I've got a few plugs left send a PM and I can mail one out if you want to try.

    I used to smoke Condor and Erinmore Flake when I was in university. Gave all that up many years ago along with a significant collection of Peterson and Brigham pipes.

    I do remember passing out after a 2-hour Condor smoke and feeling terrible for a day after I woke. Pretty sure it was nicotine poisoning.

    Love the smell of a pipe. Use to love the feeling of keeping a pipe going while reading a book and sipping a good port or brandy. Now I just savour the memory.

    Yeah Condor really is a bruiser in the vitamin N department, I find it much stouter than even something like Sam Gawiths Black/Brown twists. I have some Erinmore flake but I find it a bit bitey so haven't smoked too much of it. UK otc blends seem to be much more robust than the typical US offerings. I'd probably smoke even more than I do now if I still lived in the UK with so many classic blends still around (for now).

    A sad day!

    What a great blend. Full bodied but not harsh. I will miss this tobacco.
    My thanks to jfk

    Wrapped up an unsuccessful day of hunting with some old Dunhill London mix in a Peterson while sipping Barry's irish breakfast blend tea. It was a cold one, but any day hunting is better that doing almost anything else.

    Pics or it didn't happen, that being said good choice of pipe, tobacco and good choice of tea I usually fluctuate between Yorkshire gold and.Barry's, currently doing Barry's actually as we speak.

    Best I can do this time around is one of this morning's a deer from the last day of alternative season.
    Celebrated with another bowl of of London mix in the peterson with coffee.

    Barry's is definitely a favorite, but I haven't had Yorkshirein a long time. A local shop used to have "Dublin gosip" which was a house blend mix of Barry's and constant comment, too bad they discontinued it. [ATTACH=CONFIG]338450[/ATTACH
