Just give in!
What's in your bowl today
- Thread starter La Chupacabra
- Start date
Boswell Bear Blend in a Grabow Grad Duke
Peterson Irish Flake in a Grabow Crown Duke. Spread out and dried for 30 minutes then folded and stuffed. It's staying lit better than the last time I smoked it but still going out more often than average. Tasty stuff all the same with a kick!
Well today while smoking the new cob and cleaning the Mr. Brog my wife is like " honey you have opened some nice tobaccos but you know there is one I want you to try why haven't you opened that one?" I try and tell her I have almost 2 oz left of the brand we already smoke! I will admit been a week or 2 since we smoked it, so I have in and now smoking
Drew Estates heirloom cherry in the Mr. Brog. Interesting for sure think I should let it rest some. The Brog smokes it wonderfully in the out of tin state. Thank you @javajunkie for both the pipe and Tobacco.
Easy to ream and not hard to clean or much to clean anyway. Smokes wonderfully. Huge airway easy to smoke.......

Stand back..... Heck I have opened another TIN. I know I am crazy but I love to smoke and don't worry I have Jars so they don't have to worry about drying out LOL..... As if I can't smoke it fast enough...
Tonight in my Wire Carved Kaywoodie I thought I would try some Mac Baren HH Latakia Flake.
It is an English Flake and I have to say with the Words on the Tin Latakia I was thinking it would be heavy bomb. (It's not) Then when I seen the Flakes I was thinking this looks good little wet but I like to try from the TIN. If I find it needs to dry then I will dry it but This don't need dry time. Love the way it is in the TIN nice and Neat. Tin Note is nice Woodsy smoky a hint of sweet spice. As I said before the flakes are wonderful looking. I thought 3 across must fit. After rubbing 2 out I found that packed in my pipe well enough. At first light or Try I found that I packed it ok just not tight enough so I tamped it down and it lit up like a Charm. This tobacco is very mild in flavor not over bearing. One of the things I have looked for many years is a tobacco that likes to smoke without me..... Well this is the one. While holding it in hand after a few puffs I see it just smoking away to leave a wonderful room note even while I am resting between puffs. Does make my pipe a little warm. I have to say that I do find this tobacco very pleasing and it could be added to my daily rotation.
PS. Yes the Pipe at one time was broken in 3 parts. Still smokes wonderfully.
PSS. Yes I did try and take the label off to put on a Jar. I don't care for Square tins didn't work well so left it and will just smoke it more often.
Thank you again @javajunkie for the Wonderful Tobacco

Sounds interesting!
Well Finished 2 bowls of Heirloom cherry, One in a MM Legends Cob and one in the New MM Cob, Also smoked some Caramel Apple Pie in my Buffalo Meerschaum.

Boswell's Dans Blend
The pipe is a Vox Pop. It has 18 "holes" where the fills fell out and 6 more spots with the filler still in them. However it is a hell of a smoker. Paid $1.00 for it.
I would agree, you can find plenty of deals if uve got time to refurbish on fleabag too
HU Dockworker in a Nørding Lovat. About to order more... Ha.
