Close to finishing this bowl of Wilke No. 515 in a smooth dark brown medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY 4AB No. 45/500 military mount with a silver cap and a vulcanite black tapered AB stem. This was the blend Basil Rathbone smoked. Been a very busy day.

@timt I got a Rubik's cube during one of my litter picking sessions; I tried solving it but couldn't do it:)
I sent it to the charity shop; doing my bit for the planet and for charity again!!!
Don't feel bad Dan, I'm only a spectator - never learned to solve it. My son has personal best times under 10 seconds. 12 seconds in a competition. It's amazing to watch some of these competitors solve in under 5 seconds.

Getting ready to smoke some year old KBV Byronic Slices. Beautiful plume has already begun and the jar note is decadent.

I’ll be smoking it in my Michal Pawlak Bamboo, Canted Egg.

It seemed there were some detractors of the Byronic when first came out. I can tell you that this blend has improved quite a bit since when I purchased it over almost 2 yrs ago. BTW, that’s beautiful!?☕

For me it’s the nutty sweetness of the burley/Virginias interplay that has me. The condimental addition of the perique dives in and out periodically with a deliciously sweet spice. Many find this blend cigarettish. My 20s & 30s were spent smoking Marlboro Reds, so it definitely appeals to me. My all day/everyday blend. ?☕
I’ve kind of avoided this blend because I didn’t think I’d like it but your description has me second guessing myself. Going to have to try it and find out now
