    SWRA Sir Walter Raleigh Aromatic

    Tossed in with my most recent order is a pouch of Sir Walter Raleigh Aromatic. I did this on a whim and in large part to the touting of @mso489 who’s opinion I’ve come to trust. I base this on his thoughtful commentary on numerous topics. — Let’s see he’s right about SWRA. I remember well the...

    Pegasus: Love for One Blend

    Pegasus - Bob Runowski, I do hope there’s a heaven and you’re enjoying your reward. A band of angels should’ve descended to earth to escort you to the pearly gates for your creation of Pegasus alone. It’s a cool sunny morning of 54 degrees and I’m in early morning bliss. I’m enjoying a modest...

    Kaywoodie Vs. MM Cob

    MSO recently posted his respect for the venerable Kaywoodie. I love this forum, in part, for it’s power of suggestion. Since I own one, I’ve dug it out and decided to have a comparison smoke. Since I’ve been smoking only cobs the past few weeks, this is the perfect time to compare my MM Cobs...

    Granger vs. Granger?

    I’d sat expecting a melt-in-your-mouth-medium-rare-ribeye. But in ritzy, downtown Los Angelos at three times market price—one fancy dry-aged steak went back to the kitchen. I wasn’t impressed by that steak—nor was the LA restaurant manager impressed by me.—Nor the cook. I mean, “Chef” I told...

    New Burley London Blend vs Original

    As I write I am halfway through a cob of 2021 Burley London Blend. Sorry Shermnatman, no honey ? required. Opening the tin I am put off by what reminds me of Coco-Puffs—(artificially flavored) children’s breakfast cereal. No, this is NOT the tin-note of Burley London. My opinion is empirical...

    New Peterson vs 50’s Dunhill

    Surprised at the diminutive size of the 1956 Dunhill Group 4 I’d recently obtained — I decided to purchase a similar sized pipe for a comparison. Attempting to match the ‘56 Dunhill’s dimensions—the choice came down to a Rattray’s Old Gowrie 7 or a Peterson Cara 15–both in sandblast. I went...

    Bulging Can of Granger - Is This Grangerous?

    Let me pose a serious question for a change. I am cellaring Mucho Granger and obtaining same wherever I can find it... The can in the photo is one of two that I scored in a tobacco shop.

Now I don’t wish to mention anyone by name, but his initials are “Shermnatman” Anyway, Shermnatman...swears by the “honey method” and has opined that either “maple syrup or honey” —must be used to coat the interior...
