    HU 100g Can Storage Viability?

    Is aluminum tape effective for additional sealing with paint cans?

    A New Process

    I am in if you still have room. Sounds like the type of experiment I like.

    How Many Blends Do You Have In Rotation

    If it is in a jar, it is in the rotation. I lost count if jarred blends but safe to estimate around 125 or so. My current rotation is made up of 5 or so Balkans.

    Peretti Yuletide Opinions

    I thought it was a rather mild but tasty blend. It has a fantastic room presence and the aftertaste is one of the better of the genre. I prefer Balkans but CCP did not disappoint.

    Palate Reset

    Raw oysters with lemon-Thai pepper-horseradish-shallots-sherry sauce. Works the charm.

    Talk to Me About Wrist Watches

    Wearing a surprisingly accurate vintage Russian made mechanical chronograph. I picked this up on ebay for $50 5 years ago. It has been cleaned and adjusted. Nice, light, albeit thick watch. A diamond in the rough. I think the company (Poljot) had a legal battle with some German made watches upon...

    Two Friends English Chocolate

    I typically find this blend to be a bit rough around the edges. Some time ago I read that someone used Cavendish to smooth things up a bit. I do not have plain Cavendish but the Lane Vanilla Black Cavendish works while also adding a bit of sweet and cream.

    Talk to Me About Wrist Watches

    I wear a watch everywhere but to bed. My favorites are vintage mechanical. My everyday wear are Casio and Seiko divers or chronographs.

    Estate Pipes

    Do you use silverware at a restaurant? At a bar? I think half of the value I find in Estates is getting to restore the pipe to something of its original glory! And contemplating what lives the pipe smoked through... What tobaccos...who owned it.....

    Why And Who?

    Probably the same fellow who looked at an oyster for the first time and thought "these look delicious".

    Estate Pipes

    Only for collectors? I would estimate that 90% of my small pipe rotation is made of estate pipes. And I am not a collector. Do not follow your thought process...

    Oilcloth As A Pouch Liner?

    In any case, I am going with surgical grade sheet rubber. No petroleum products, no expensive oilcloth... A pain to find the genuine article.

    Oilcloth As A Pouch Liner?

    Genuine oilcloth is linen or cotton, tightly woven, treated with linseed oil. It was used in tobacco pouches for decades and even for food pouches. My question is more about air tightness, degradation, etc. It is not oily to touch.

    C&D Sunset Harbor - Wow! What Other Gems Lurk About?

    On a scale of 1-10 with 1 being Sutliff Aromatic English, 5 being Penzance, and 10 being Pirate Cake or similar... I would say 4.5ish.

    What Is Everyone Drinking Tonight?

    A dram of Balvenie Doublewood and a vicodin for my back. Have yet to choose a night ending smoke.

    C&D Sunset Harbor - Wow! What Other Gems Lurk About?

    I will throw some flakes your way if you would like to give it a try.

    C&D Sunset Harbor - Wow! What Other Gems Lurk About?

    Dreams of Kadath is my favorite from that series. I need to try SOTE. Does GLP refer to Pease blends?

    C&D Sunset Harbor - Wow! What Other Gems Lurk About?

    Yes, and I have tried the "popular" and well known blends. Gawith and Rattray's are well represented in my modest cellar. But I have never read about Sunset Harbor here or on any other boards for that matter. My point was that there are many out there flying under the radar, so to speak.
