I am enjoying it immensely. Although I'm turning into a bit of a chain smoker...That's quite a start! I hope you continue to enjoy it.
That's St. James Woods. I heard a lot of good things about it.Which tobacco is in that 100g tin of McClellands?
I really enjoy the Sunday Picnic...I'm not at the stage yet to give a proper review but I find it has a nice, faintly sweet undertone with this almost jalapeno bite...not overwhelming, really unique. From what I've been reading, I guess that would be perique? The aftertaste was like a had ate a fruit cake. Very enjoyable and I will be buying more.Also let us know what you think of that C&D Sunday Picnic.
I hear you there. I've got quite a few boxes of Cubans tucked away in a cooler aging nicely! :roll:I do not miss the expense
Yes I have. I had purchased one tin a couple of weeks ago. The rest were immediately added to my next order.Have you tried the Escudo yet? It deserves all the hype that's for sure.
The pipe can demand attention, but it doesn't always need to distract you. The routine of packing, lighting, and tamping becomes habit over time. Some tobaccos are distracting, and when I need to focus I'll smoke Carter Hall or McClelland 's Bulk No.5100 Red Cake.Actually, they still have a place with me. If I'm putzing about in the garage or out in the boat, then I'll be grabbing the cigars. The pipe seems to demand that I just sit and pay attention.
I have an order coming in which I have included a tub of Carter Hall just for that very reason. I need to order a grab bag of corn cobs as well. I have found that if I try to smoke a pipe while doing other things, I tend to clench unnecessarily hard on the stem.when I need to focus I'll smoke Carter Hall or McClelland 's Bulk No.5100 Red Cake.
This was my experience the first time that I tried to smoke a pipe while driving. Tamping and relighting as causing the lives of everyone around me to be put at a serious risk!needing to relight a pipe and wanting to live don't mix well
