Plain packaging Canuck style

nutcracker · 09-30-2020, 05:50 PM

So some b@$tard has decided that plain packaging involves transferring tobacco from C&D tins to flat rounds and put new lids on Gawith tins.

They look putrid, but - more concerning is the lids are not sealed.

I bought some Autumn evening at my local B&B (because I’m a nice guy) at a cool $55 (CAD) for 2 oz and a tin of Gawith Cabbies mixture.

The lids were not sealed properly and the tobacco close to dry.

I feel less guilty about my bootlegging operations from the US (where the tobacco is still sealed in the can!) as these jackasses are wrecking pipe tobacco.
