Been a while. I have smoked a few bowls this week proving myself wrong that I can’t enjoy one with high humidity (>70%). Today it was Capstan Blue from 2013. It was nice and easy going, just had to dry it more than what I would in the fall/winter.
Erinmore Flake (2013) in a Boswell. This tin was moved to a jar years ago. I’m almost doubting that it’s Erinmore because there is no topping to speak of. Fold and stuff with sprinkles on top. Very finicky stuff. The first part was very subtle with sweet Va flavor every now and then. Mid bowl was deep sweetness and nuts. The last 3rd is spicy. I dunno, going to keep messing with it to see what combo is best.
Orlik Golden Slice (2013) in a Boswell. Love this stuff. Hay, roasted peanuts, spice, and just enough sweetness to make you concentrate on its existence.View attachment 118933
C&D Dreams of Kadath in a Savinelli bent billiard, so rich and tasty. Then a mix of GLP Cairo and Temple Bar, I think the Cairo is a bit too rich and the Temple Bar a bit bland, so for me 50/50 works well
Bayou Morning (2008) in a Moonshine Devil Anse. I agree that this is a morning smoke, if it’s your only bowl till evening. Reported 25% Perique, prob true. Sweet Va for the first few puffs, then fruity, then spice that pleasantly sits in the back of you throat. Thick filling smoke.
