I'm with ya. I went with a Natural #35
@Speak Easy @MortarMessiah we are having a great time. Hoping you are having a good weekend as well
Here's one from last night, I stayed up late
That's rough man. Glad you're feeling better!
Churchill Petite Corona catching lake trout and missing a salmon
Bandolero 42 after a nice dinner. I haven't had overwhelmingly good experiences with these, but this one has rested about a year and was great
You get sick?
That Smokingpipes/Blackbird Lancero, watching the moon rise over the big lake
Underfilled but 92% humidity (@71F) is helping. A perfectly fine smoke but I don't see myself seeking more. This was a holiday gift from family that I am with right now so that's nice
Headed out tomorrow to our inland sea. If all goes as planned in 2 days we'll be grilling fresh trout lakeside. No shellfish in Superior though...
A VSG that didn't behave well initially
I've learned to not be too hasty with the perfectdraw. A tight pre-draw doesn't necessarily mean it needs a...
La Colmena to kick off a little vacation
Decent, good, maybe, but not $22 good
Clear notes of cedar, cashew, other unique things I can't quite place. I've had these about a year and the one I smoked off the shelf was substantially better
Oh man that sounds great!
We visited Port Townsend some years ago. Such a magnificent part of our country, I'd like to go back sometime
Memorable crab cakes on San Juan Island...
Last Call for me, $3 happily spent
Looks like a nice smoky day. West coast oysters I assume?
Antaño little before work, and the little Hot Cake got burned after
Aladino Petite Corona to close things out. This was the best of the three, although I do like those Antaños and recently bought 7 tins for under a hundred if I...
Looks like current release. How'd you like it?
Garmirian 15th No. 5
Okay, just okay.
Intense and distinct buckwheat honey from the wrapper, pre- light, very nice. Did not show itself in the smoke
Nice. Love the little Rorschachs, and of course the '26
That Boondock Saint has some age on it (unless they re-released it). I'll be very interested to hear how it smokes
Funny, I was just making to ask you about La Aurora 100s. Are you endorsing the current production?
Also- any thoughts on the 115s? The Brazilian has my interest...
