Pipe tobacco is not like cigars nor cigarettes. It is a different product much less harmful and not addicting so it sould be encouraged instead of hunted put together with the cigarettes. Once a pipe smoker, cigarettes will never be in your mouth. The difference is like mcMenus against your mom’s cooking.

A price explosion would lead us to buy from other non US dealers however we like the american blends. So better consider again, look who the real enemy is and let our humble tradition go on and those producers stay into business.
