    Trouble Wit Aromatics

    Greg Pease's Virginia Cream is just about right out of the tin. It is the only aro I've ever smoked that has a nice Virginia tobacco taste.

    Finaly understand Dunhill Nightcap

    Orlik - "Dark Strong Kentucky"

    cobguy, it is similar to Dark Strong Flake but not the same. If you enjoy that you will probably enjoy the Orlick variety.

    Merry Christmas To Me/Radice

    I have several and really like them. They are as good a quality as any of the other Italian makers. I believe the Italians make the best pipes across the board from the base to the pinnacle of the line.
