A few years ago,when I was still in my first year or two of pipe smoking, I bought a pound each of Smokers Pride Vanilla and Black Cavendish. The Black wasn't half bad, and as a matter of fact I still smoke it quite often, but the Vanilla tasted like something I raked up out of the yard! Anyway I jarred and kept it thinking maybe someday, if there were no good bacy left on Earth, I might try it again. Well, I know there is still plenty of the good stuff still out there but today I was feeling brave and decided to give it another shot. After several years in the jar it has become quite tolerable, not really good mind you, but tolerable none the less. Maybe by the time all the good stuff is gone it might have reached the status of "good". Maybe!
