Yessir. I got four in my last order from smokingpipes. I was already ordering a bunch of cobs for my buddies for a weekend of debauchery, and figured why not for $3 each.

Had a bowl of Solani Silver Flake today. The real peppery edge seems to have calmed or it was a pipe ghost the.first couple times. Or I have a ghost in the pipe I just smoked it in that is knocking down the spice. Either way I really enjoyed it today. Could also be because the bag has been open a few weeks now and I rubbed the whole bag out because the flakes were rather flimsy anyhow and were falling apart as I tried to grab some out.

reorganizing my long stash, kinda had to burn some. C&D bayou morning in a cob:



and i know perique isn't everyone's thing, but it's like a little (or a lot) of heat can wake up the right food. me, i like a jigga jigga hot sauce. o)

Had to break into the tin of patriot flake I got yesterday. It definitely has a bit of age. My first time with a VA and I'm enjoying it. It's got a nice sweetness from the VA as I expected and a tasty spice to go with it. I'm gonna miss this one when it's gone

looks beautiful, sir! jar the rest and break it out as needed for a "special treat".

as for me, STILL reorganizing and counting my long stash, so my first bowl of odyssey in a sav roma estate, a cob full of ashton gold rush (fun but flat), and a cob full of C&D sunset harbor from javaman.

I certainly will. It's gonna be hard to keep out of the jar. It developed a really nice depth and creaminess towards the bottom of the bowl. I have primarily been going for English blends but the clean natural tobacco flavor of this will have me searching for more Virginias to try

I thoroughly enjoyed that one.
cool! there are a TON of different tobaccos out there. try them out, narrow down your comfort zone. maybe you are an aro guy, or just don't get along with LAT, or perique. and, just like with a cigar, if you ain't enjoying it, put it down, it's doing no one any good at that point. o)

I'm so new to this I don't even know what's an aro and what's not. I was considering this one and some of the virginia blends I've tried to be "light" aros, if there is such a thing.

I know the abbreviation, but I don't know yet (other than when I'm told) if some of this baccy is aromatic or not.
