    September, 2011 - What are you Smoking? II

    Dunhill Flake ("Light" - Murrays tin) in a Grabow. :puffy: Lightning in the sky tonight out on the desert.

    Question for the Dark Siders

    Dan/CAO Old Ironsides is probably the most latakia heavy blend I have smoked. Dark brown to black flakes that smoke unbelievably cool and enough latakia to choke a horse. Wonderful tobacco. You won't make many friends around you with this burning in your pipe! If you can find some of the old...

    Middleton's Cherry Blend in the big horkin' freehand cob. :puffy: Clouds and rain on the way to the desert today.

    September, 2011 - What are you Smoking? II

    Call of Cthulhu read by Wayne June in my earbuds. Black House in my pipe. The "stars are right" above the dark back porch tonight. :twisted:

    Erinmore Mixture

    Haven't had Erinmore in some time. I liked the Flake. The tin smell reminded me of Juicy Fruit gum. I think I'll pop into the local B&M and get a bit of it.

    Sail Green in the Nording 925 on the desert autumn back porch. Yuban in the mug. Gonna be another scorcher in Vegas. 100F forecast.

    September, 2011 - What are you Smoking? II

    Did some early fall grilling on the back porch and now it's time to kick back with some Bob's Chocolate Flake. :puffy:

    Chocolate/Peanuts-Mix'in blends

    I've got an old Rattray's tin I use for leftovers. I dip into it now and then and I like it!

    John Rolfe in a basket pipe on the still hot back porch. Fall came to the desert today and it was 100F! :roll:

    That frog on the bayou

    marmal4de: I think chispa was after some ideas for blends similar to FMOTB. I read his experience with FMOTB and it mirrored my experience with No. 5. That's all I based my suggestion on. YMMV.

    That frog on the bayou

    chispa asked: "What other blends would you say fall in the same style as the Frog on the Bayou?" Sutliff's Blend No.5 - Cavendish and latakia. This blend gets trashed on tobaccoreviews.com and I'm not sure why. The blender was trying to replicate Dunhill's My Mixture #965 and failed. In...

    Aromatic or not

    I simplified the whole thing by dedicating about four pipes to English/Balkan blends and all the rest of my pipes to anything else.

    how?

    Borkum Riff Tobacco's

    Borkum Riff Bourbon Whiskey is not too bad. It will bite if you puff too hard but if you are patient, you are rewarded with a nice, flavorful smoke. It isn't a whiskey flavor but more akin to a holiday dessert (fuitcake?). I had tried it many years ago and I wasn't too happy with it. It was...

    September, 2011 - What are you Smoking? II

    Black House on the black night desert porch. I'm getting to like this blend better than when I first opened it. I think the air did it some good. :puffy:

    Setting sail for the sweet life in St. George and taking my RLP to the troutstre

    See now, I thought your were setting sail for St. George, Utah! There's some decent trout fishing up there in that vicinity... :lol:

    EMP and fresh coffee on the desert back porch.

    Latika question from a noob

    Early Morning Pipe and Nightcap are some of the first steps many take down in the yawning pit known as The Dark Side. Shadowy corridors haunted by specters such as Pease, Ouellette, the ancient dead mummy Sobranie and the bearded madman himself, Alfred Dunhill with his grimoire of oriental...

    Virginias, Bleck! or How PipesMagazine is gonna turn me around on them

    @ jankomatic: I don't see Peterson's University Flake or Dunhill Flake on your already tried list. The UF is a Va/Burley flake. The burley takes some of the bite out of the Va and it has a nice berry-like taste and aroma. Dunhill Flake is just a gift from the gods. Citrus, hay, fresh mown...

    King's Oriental in a freehand basket pipe of questionable quality. :puffy:
