Stopped by the local today, Fader's of Annapolis, and browsed their pipe tobacco selections as well as some of the beautiful pipes they had on display. Received some great assistance, as usual, and picked out some pipe tobacco, 2 ounce to be exact. Looking forward to sampling this.

It was in a large glass jar with the Fader's name on it and a sticker saying "Istanbul" so I figure this to be a house blend. Anyone familiar if there is another blend on the market by that name? I was requestiing something a little stronger with more body. After listing the few tobaccos I have had so far he suggested the Istanbul.

More to follow after trying it.
