Neat package, where did ye find it? How does it smoke? I tend to like Balkan blends or blends with lots of pirique.
I usually don't like pipe tobacco with casings but I am looking for one that smells like annisette when being smoked, like those cheap Avanti cigars.

We made about 20+ at Ft Union this year and they contain random tobacco that was provided. I don't smoke any more, so a flavor test is out. They were made to add to the Trading Post display inventory. Created from an 8 1/2" by 11" sheet of paper that was folded into the triangular envelope with the edges glued to hold it together.

Very interesting. Any idea of the amount or weight of tobacco those wrappers held?

The weight of the one shown is 3/8 oz or 12 gms, including the packaging (approximately 1/4 oz/6 gms).

Any idea of how many pipe bowls full that would make or how long that amount would last? I realize if one only smoked one pipe full a day, or less, it would last longer. Oh, does the Fort have evidence people mixed Kinnikinic with it, in use?

Based upon average clay bowl size, I suspect you have 6-8 (or more) doses in the package depending on how full you like your pipe. Kinnick-kinnick - yes. From the Ft. Union museum:
