So here is my pipe lol. It’s a MacQueen pipe, quite possibly unsmoked though there is a little burnishing around the top edge of the bowl. This may mean that I actually tried one time but stopped for one reason or another.
I also have these two tins of tobacco. I believe both to be unused as well but I think I may have opened the de luxe mixture for one reason or another. The other one I cannot open for some reason so that leads me to think it never was.
Question now is where to maybe find a good Cobb that could be shipped to me, and if this tobacco is any good. I’m unsure of the exact consistency of how it should be. The deluxe isn’t “brittle” but it’s not exactly soft either. It’s anything but “wet”.
Update, the early morning pipe was unopened, until just a few minutes ago. It has the same consistency as the de lux, so that may be good or bad. They both have been residing in a older clear plexi fake zino humidor in a cool basement setting for the last 3 years, and maybe a couple more at the old place before that. Its fairly airtight as I can smell the delicious pipe aroma every time I open it.
