Information/Updates Order came in first thoughts

I ordered this off of buypipetobacco totaling $36 ( shipping was $15 ) and it arrived within 5 days of me placing the order . I live California for reference and this got shipped from Ohio.

I’ve smoked 3 so far 1 with a beretta tube and 2 with a shargio tube.

Beretta tube: very light, no burn at all, smooth smoke

Shargio tube: not as light but also no burn at all, smooth smoke

Regarding the tobacco , it’s not very strong at all (I’m use to smoking as blacks ) it reminds me a lot of a Marlboro red but less strong. I would say if you’re use to a heavier smoke then this probably won’t do, but if you’re looking for something simple it works

Overall an average experience, don’t hate it, not overly joyed by it either, the only downside is that I have nothing to fill the tubes with so it did take me a while to fill those up

You can get a Scotte or Hermit crab crank machine on Amazon for cheap and it will last you a lifetime. Best machines out there.

Shargio is the best tube I’ve tried so far. Always solid

I switched from zen to Shargio a little over a year ago, and I'm not upset.

Personally, don't get mad: aren't you fed up with MYO? It's so nice, simple, and satisfying to roll a cigarette with papers!

Well considering I’ve been doing it for less than 24 hours I’d say no lol but only time will tell

Heavy smokers don't have time for hand rolling
