The last ever Irish Cake.
Well that's it no more the last one he had and there is no more dam have to treat it like hash now.
All that is left now worth smoking in Australia is Erinmore Flake.
Hope i don't get sick of it.
It's gone because of plain packaging laws in Australia. The tobacconist was breaking the law by selling it. All tobacco in Australia have to have plain brown packaging and cancer pictures plastered on them. So that's why we have no pipe tobacco as i said. So it's a sad life being a pipe smoker in Australia. So we get charged $44 for 50 grams of crap tobacco.
Well my sister in Milford Ct sent me a 50 gram can and it made it nice. I have on the way 150 grams for her i'm hoping it makes it. If it gets caught $400 au / kilo. Also 2 "collectible" tobacco tins off ebay fingers crossed, HD
Man, that's one more nail in the coffin fro Oz pipe smokers. Damnit!
ReplyDeleteWhy is it gone? Price and taxes? Damned shame. I had hoped some day to taste it but that's kicked in the bum for fair.

Crap in a basket!!! I suppose that incoming baccy (gifts) are heavily taxed as well? If a package should be opened, huh?
