Mine just arrived. I don't know why they call them Indian Tabac (except for the obvious RP Indian Tabac connection) on their website, but I have noticed similar things when ordering from them before (they call the Esoterica Tobacciana pipe tobaccos "Butera" tobaccos). Also, they do these killer "clearance" deals on various things every once in a while. Maybe they're on clearance because nobody finds them since they are listed under Indian Tabac

? I have ordered lots of pipe tobacco from them in the past, with never an issue. Anyway, like I said, mine just showed up...everything looks to be in good order. The 10-count boxes of Churchill tubos, still in the factory cello.

I have yet to come across a RP that I do like. They just leave a nasty taste in my mouth through out the whole smoke

That's why there's so many manufacturers today

. If we all liked the same sticks, we'd only need one maker...

I'm kind of in the same boat as COMB2, except I've really liked the Indian Trabacs that I've smoked, especially the Maduros. But any of the other RPs I've smoked just don't taste good to me.
