Thanks for sharing, gimpy.
@Brandasaur: Export A Gold? Are you a (fellow) hoser? I’ve tried a few home made snuffs using various (plain) pipe tobacco and RYO tobacco. One of the better ones was lightly toasted Drum, ground with mortar and pestle. It turned out something like Latakia AO 1860, but not nearly as good. I suspect letting it sit undisturbed for a year or two may have improved it, but as I can barely wait for orders to arrive, I’ll stick to buying from the pros. Good luck and keep experimenting, everyone!
