I just got back from a vacation to California, Arizona and New Mexico. Stopped in a few tobacco shops while I was at it. I found this in a head shop in San Diego (when you look up tobacco in the phone book you never know what you’ll get, some places are focused on cigarettes, others are nice tobacco shops with huge walk in humidors with cigars and pipe tobaccos, while others turn out to be head shops). I remember a member here (oldsnuffer i think) mentioning lotzbeck brasil. I’d never heard of or seen it before so I thought I’d share it with you. It’s a great schmalzler so I kind of wish I’d grabbed two but it was overpriced at nearly $6 each. sidenote: I was trying to figure out why he even sold this and the store owner told me that someone from the city came in playing judge, jury, and executioner and went through his store and told him he couldn’t sell bullets (the only reason you find snuffs in these shops) or secret containers (the ones that look like regular household products but have been converted to hide things in). How can someone stop a person from selling these fairly innocent and legal items, considering the rest of the store was nothing but glass pipes, water bongs, obvious drug paraphernalia, and tons of porn? Anyone else find any good snuffs lately? EDIT: Hey, I see they have this at Mars now. Only $2.40…I got ripped! EDIT TO EDIT: Disregard…Mars only has a picture of it.
I didn’t see it at Mars. All I saw was the Perle and Mild. How is it? Does it compare to Bernards?
I like it. Difinitely different than the Brasil Feinst yet has the schmalzler qualities. Even if you’re not a big fan of the Perle or Mild I’d recommend it if you like the Bernard’s. That’s not to say the Brasil Schmalzler falls too far from the Lotzbeck tree. Yeah, I guess Mars just has a picture of it and doesn’t sell it.
Maybe Mars is sold out? Maybe I need to visit head shops.
what I don’t get is that stash containers would be good for hiding money and stuff. The thing I don’t get about drug paraphanila being illegal is why aren’t sports cars illegal??? I mean driving one the way it’s intended to be used is totaly illegal in most places.
lots of laws don’t make sense, bob. Usually they have good intention, but not effective. The drug paraphenalia laws vary from state to state, or even city. I think its legal here. For example: In my neighborhood several stop signs were put up to make traffic slow down. Doesn’t make sense, the intersections they were on never had accidents and were not terribly problematic. Stop signs are to aid in determining right of way at intersections, not slow down traffic. What slows down traffic is a cop giving speeding tickets. Guess which one costs more? Now you know why they opted for stop signs instead. Like hammering a nail with a screwdriver.
typical.
@bob- yes, stopping them from selling the stash containers doesn’t make any sense. the shop owner told me that an old lady came in to get some of those containers (she liked them for her cash and jewels when the grandkids came over) and flipped out when he told her they wouldn’t let him sell them anymore. He told me she called city hall right then and there from his store and gave them a piece of her mind. Your sports car analogy reminds me of a joke I posted in the fishing thread back when: One morning the husband returns after several hours of > fishing and decides to take a nap. Although not familiar > with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She > motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book. > > Along comes a Game Warden in his boat.

seriously
That logo reminds me of Edward Scissorhands riding the Jaegermeister stag…God forbid that Poschl ever comes out with a Jaegermeister snuff.
