    Jim's Sutliff 2021 Cringle Flake Review.

    This is mostly a ridiculous question but because I have a full workday starting at 6 AM tomorrow, does anyone know if this will go live at midnight? I would rather stay up to order tonight than miss completely tomorrow.

    Ruffoni Cookware

    The Ruffoni roasting pan you are wanting is a work of art. Truly. I would be scared to use it. Look forward to photos if you decide to pull the trigger. As an old-line cook and not as rich as most, I will stick with my cast iron and steel pans.

    May as Well Admit It: I Like Fr. Dempsey Best. What Should I Purchase That's Like It?

    Tashkent is so much better than FD. But they really aren't comparable. One has Virginia, one doesn't. One has too much latakia (FD), and one is balanced. Just shows how tastes are different. Peretti Royal is better match for comparison. But I find it smoother than FD, too.

    What is the typical amount of Latakia found in crossover blends? Yes, I know most here are not blenders. I am only looking for an estimate. I have too much Latakia and too many Aros that will not be smoked or only smoked as a last resort. I would like to make a mix that will make them more...

    A Good Oriental Forward Blend?

    I find some Burleys destroy my taste buds with bitterness while others do not. I guess I will risk it and try Brunello since it has such a great reputation....and BTW it has to have been concocted by a witch.

    A Good Oriental Forward Blend?

    Peretti Tashkent, Oriental 40,....you can add a quality Virginia, maybe a stoved Virginia, to the Tashkent to create as Oriental forward VaOr you can imagine.

    Quality of Sutliff Tobacco

    Sutliff Medium English is a fantastic smoke. Do a blind test with this blend against a few of the "good" blends. It might surprise you.

    What's Your Favorite Pipe for Backpacking or Camping?

    I take my best smokers camping, fishing, hiking..... The outdoors is my favorite place to exist so why would I compromise my smoke by taking a "throwaway"? I have a small, shockproof container that I use for my pipe carry.
