    Boswell Premium Burley Review

    Watch City Slices would be worth your while as well.

    Do you Smoke Right handed or Left handed?

    I’m left handed and I clench or hold left as well. Mainly because I steer right handed.

    Perique Recommendations?

    If you want to stay in the English vein with a hearty perique kick I suggest C&D Mountain Camp or Super Balkan. If you want a departure from English I’d recommend C&D Bayou Morning Flake, Old Joe Krantz, and if you want to be bowled over by perique...Bayou Night. Peterson Deluxe Navy Rolls are...

    Another Small Batch Coming Soon.

    Snagged a couple of tins from SP. Working nights has its perks.

    Pipe Tobacco Language

    I wouldn’t get too worked up about not noticing flavor nuance comparisons. Just continue to smoke and they will make themselves known over time. For instance, it takes me a week or two of smoking nothing but perique heavy blends for me to really get all the flavors of mushroom, green pepper...

    Pipe tobacco cut preference

    Indeed, they pretty much all do ??

    Pipe tobacco cut preference

    Despite the fact that my favorite go-to is a ribbon cut, I find crumble cake aesthetically pleasing. I especially like a very neat, uniform cake like Watch City’s sliced blends and SPCC.

    ***What Are You Smoking, September 2021?***

    Watch City’s The Churchwarden in a MM General.

    C&D From Beyond

    Latakia/Perique/Burley laden C&D blends comprise about 95% of my wheelhouse. I’m not a big FOMO chaser per se but I did go ahead and order a tin this morning just to try.

    What Do You Smoke??

    I switch back and forth between pipes and cigars depending on my mood, but mostly pipes. I smoke cigarettes here and there, usually when I’m drinking but I try to keep that to a minimum. I also like the occasional nasal snuff and chewing tobacco.

    Lat Bomb...

    I don’t know if they are bombs per se, but you may enjoy C&D Mountain Camp, Billy Budd, and Constellation. They are bold, flavorful, and pack a healthy dose of Latakia.

    Batten Down the Hatches, Boys! That #@!&* Ida is Headed for South Central Louisiana.

    I’m riding the storm out at Dow in Plaquemine, we’ll be seeing Ida real soon.

    C and D

    I've been a C&D customer for over 20 years, such a diverse and fun catalog of blends to smoke through!

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2021?***

    The commute to work this evening was made possible with a big bowl of C&D Mountain Camp in a MM General. The morning drive home will likely consist of some C&D Super Balkan in the same General, that should keep me alert all the way to the house.

    Pick One Pipe & One Blend as Your Best of the Best

    Lately I’d have to say C&D Mountain Camp in my Elf Cobbit.

    Bottom Of Chamber In Cobs

    As you smoke it the wood will burn away a little at a time. After a few smokes the wood will have burned down and may look more even. It usually takes me 4-5 smokes in a cob before I consider it “broken in”.

    Haunted Bookshop - Love Or Hate...

    Hey, it sounded legit haha. They should consider that for a future blend.

    Haunted Bookshop - Love Or Hate...

    A Admittedly I don’t recall trying that one either. Riverboat Gambler and Evening Rise are both good C&D burleys as well, though in a bit different vein.

    Do You Smoke Clay Pipes?

    You could probably melt a thin layer of beeswax on the tip, though I’m sure you would eventually have to re-apply.

    Haunted Bookshop - Love Or Hate...

    In times past I was a 3-5 bowl a day C&D burley smoker. My favorite was OJK but I also smoked a fair amount of HB, usually on the morning commute. I get the cigarette-ish thing, but to me it also had more of a grainy Grape Nuts cereal taste which I liked. Plus I noticed that after a little time...
