Basically all of them on a regular basis. I would easily pay that price for Revor Plug, Dark Flake Licorice, Dark Rose Plug Geranium.

Your lungs don't have taste buds so don't inhale.

Two great tastes that go great together when you mix a pinch of one with a pinch of the other. Mixture 79 but without the burley.

Don't inhale, but snorking is encouraged.

Have a look at my prices, and tell me what you pay. Then I'll go and cry quietly in a dark cupboard somewhere.

What is OTC ? Still interested in what you pay for your Tobacco. One of the cheapest cigars in USA are King Edwards, over here we pay $28 - $29 ! (5 pack)

Do you have Prince Albert in a can in the UK? On P&C it goes for about $36 for a fourteen ounce can. https://www.pipesandcigars.com/p/prince ... o/1473366/ 16 ounces make a lb. in the U.S. How many pounds would that cost you in the UK?

I've never been tempted to buy King Edward cigars in the U.S but I would expect to pay 6 bucks for five, maybe $6.50. $8.50 tops if the shop was really swanky.
