Scored some Cornell and Diehl "Pirate Kake this morning. I walked in and sat down and Dave the tobacconist at my local BM chunked a pound of it in my lap and said we are giving this a try to see how it sells and I replied I'll take 8oz but was allowed to buy 7oz and I said can I buy 8oz and 8oz he said uhhhhhhhh no! so I settled for 7 oz and immediately put 2oz in my packed tobacco pouch for California. I'm a happy boy even if I have to dry it a lil bit before smoking it.  |

Hope you enjoy! Maybe 6 or 7 years ago I was gifted some of it. It never caught on with me and I think I ended up passing on what was left. You ain't gonna give the ole thumbs up to eveerything you smoke.

Enjoy Jack, today was your lucky day. Just let the blend dry a bit before stuffing your pipe. With a couple of years of aging it only gets much betterđź‘Ťđź‘Ť

I wish it came in bulk. Fortunately Engine 99 is an approximation.

I just got almost 8oz today and was there when the package looked zactly like the one in the link, come to think of it I could have bought a pound for a few dollars than I paid. shite! |

Very hard to get here in NWA. I'm of the opinion it's worth buying by the pound! Since your location isn't listed on the LH side , where is NWA? |

In my jars of Pirate Kake, I swear that there is a cloud in the jars...not mold, or bloom...it is like a cloud....kinda adds to the mystique...like a pirate ship coming through the fog.

I love Pirate Kake. One of the first few blends I ever had and it always sits well with me. You'll enjoy it I'm sure.

This is my favourite lat bomb on the market.
It's great to mix with boring English blends as well.

Recently bought the 16oz vacuum packed brick for 48.00
$3.00 per ounce is a great value in my book.
