    Best Brown Flake #2

    Smoking my fist bowl of it now. Initial impression was "Wow! That flavor is STRONG!" and I didn't think I would be able to finish the bowl. That flavor quickly lessened, though, and as I am halfway through the bowl, it has actually become very pleasant! I may actually love this blend, but I am...

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

    I have owned both the Danish and Italian versions. Great pipes and well worth the price! I see no difference between them. Mine were all great smokers with great shaping and the fit and finish was equal to many higher priced pipes.

    Anyone Here Opt for Wine or Cocktails...

    I'm Italian! Wine isn't a drink for me, its life support!

    Best Brown Flake #2

    I did grab some Brown Flake Unscented as well. I'm saving that until I try the others for a while.

    Best Brown Flake #2

    Huh. I thought that's what I was doing. I didn't have any preconceived notions of what it would taste like. After reading and hearing about Lakelands all these years, I figured it was time to try a couple for myself. I guess I missed the mark with Best Brown Flake 2. I guess it's not a true...

    Best Brown Flake #2

    As I said, this is my first foray into Lakelands, so I'm a complete rookie. I thought all GH blends that didn't say Unscented had the Lakeland essence. Guess not. I did buy Broken Flake #7 and will try it tonight. I did get a faint floral taste from Best Brown Flake, but that could have been...

    Does Broken Flake have more? That's next to try.

    Best Brown Flake #2

    Well, I just tried my 1st ever Lakeland blend, G&H Best Brown Flake #2, in an old Jelling Dublin pipe. I've read so much about the Lakeland essence. It seems very polarizing. People seem to either love it or hate it. I've got to say, I just don't get it. I didn't love it. I didn't hate it. It...

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

    Today is the day! One of my pipe smoking goals for 2021 was to finally try a Lakeland blend. Today is the day I man up, stick my chest out, say a prayer, and try some Lakeland! On the menu today... G&H Best Brown #2, G&H Broken Flake #7, and Brown Flake Unscented. The weapons of choice will be...

    What's The Rap On The Bulldog Shape?

    Well, for one, I like taller bowls, like Billiard and Dublin shapes. To me, a Bulldog is nothing more than a fancy Pot. I also prefer pipes that a light and slender. The thick diamond shanks and thick bowls on Bulldogs just doesn't get it for me. I think many Buldogs and Rhodesians are...
