So I pulled out a tin this evening for my second pipe bowl for tonight. In short, I like it much better than I remember. I've had this tin around since April 9, 2013, so not that old, but still very nice. I must be a little better at smoking slow, or my tongue is just numb from smoking so much all the time, but I'm not getting the bite that I used too with this. I can tell that it's there waiting for me, but careful sipping of the smoke prevents it from raising it's ugly head.
I posted this picture in the nightly pipe thread too, but here it is again
