What Is Everyone Drinking Tonight?
A friend gifted me a bottle of Balcones Texas Single Malt Whisky Classic Edition last week. Very nice with just a touch of water, it is 53% after all. It does NOT work well with ice. It takes on an unusual fruity/ester note when cold.- chperry01

McClelland Aromatics
I never really smoked McClelland aromatics. Closest would be 2050 which is a VA cavendish bulk. I liked it some on its own and sometimes mixed with 5100.- chperry01

Capstan Yellow Fungus
Anytime you expose tobacco to air you get a chance for mold. Store in plastic and that chance greatly increases. Plastic is NOT good at preventing air and moisture from moving in and out.- chperry01

McC 5100
I have 5100 in mason jars from 2004 and 2005. Stored in a cool, dark, closet. It is a shame that the source of good red Virginia dried up like it did. I know one friend who has about 15 pounds of 5100 in jars. He always feared this day would come.- chperry01

Look CAREFULLY Before You Leap
Wow. I have some old GLP in a box in the closet. Now I am going to have to dig them out and look at the tins. I never had a tin rust through before.- chperry01

How Much Tin Expansion Before You Pop The Tin?
I have some VA blends (like Christmas Cheer) from the early 90s. Many are bulging but I have not yet had one pop on its own. I live at about 900 feet above sea level, so a higher elevation could make a difference.- chperry01

Did McClelland Use PG On Every Blend?
Wow. Now this is an old, think USENET, topic! This was argued many times in the 90s. I seem to remember the answer was no, but I could be wrong.- chperry01

New Member sort of ?
I hadn't visited the site in years but could not for the life of me figure out my older username. So, I signed up again ;-)- chperry01
