Time to start placing bets on chasingembers and that Christmas stash of his!
Glad you're enjoying the smoke, voorhees!

My plan is to open the Christmas Cheer around 9pm on the 24th, and smoking it at midnight.

I believe I can do it, but still awfully tempting!

He's gone this long without putting flame to that pipe yet. My bet is on Duane.
Duane, is that The Neverending Story, the book?

People seem to enjoy it now or later. I'm still holding my 2015, but I have many tins to tempt me.

It really doesn't matter the vintage of this fine leaf. I find each year to be outstanding, in their own right. I am currently enjoying the Christmas Cheer 2013 while watching the first "real" snowfall of the season.

You're much better off popping the tin now and letting it breathe until Dec. 25, I find McC's VA need breathing time or they're not that special

Is that a replica of the book used for the movie? Curious about it, because the ouroboros(from the movie) is different than what is described in the book.

I got my brother-in-law smoking pipes now and he's really getting into it. He bought some Christmas Cheer but he doesn't really "get it" yet. He sent me a lil jingle in a text this morning and I thought I would share it with you all.
Jarred up most of my Christmas Cheer

Saved a lil for this year

Not quite got the taste

Nor shall it be a waste

Tastebuds will change

And days will pass

In twenty-seventeen

It might kick some ass!

This cracked me up! He is really digging his English blends but has not yet acquired the taste of a good VA blend.
