    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2021?***

    A few minutes ago, finished a mix of Haunted Bookshop and Half & Half in a Brigham Voyageur straight Rhodesian. Now, Butternut Burley in same. I wanted to keep this beaut going.

    Your Top Five Burley Blends

    Now you made me want to bust out the Haunted Bookshop. Just had some mixed with another good old Va/Bur: Half and Half.

    Your Top Five Burley Blends

    Oh, I should have mentioned Haunted Bookshop. I do like it, when the mood is right. It's a very fall tobacco.

    Your Top Five Burley Blends

    There are lots of good premium Burleys out there, but I mainly go for Lane Burley LWAB, Butternut Burley, Peter Stokkebye 702, and then I like Va/Burs, like Peterson Sherlock Holmes, or Tinder Box Norse Gold. I put Burley in my name the day I signed up because I think I was smoking LWAB that day.

    Butternut Burley Ingredients

    Hi all, I read a post recently on Reddit where someone said Butternut Burley (Scotty's/Hearth & Home) is just Lane Burley Light Without a Bite, and Sutliff Vanilla Custard, 50/50. Butternut Burley is only available as a blend your own from Pipes and Cigars now, but it is a bit cheaper to buy...

    (Re)Start Pipes. From the Beginning for a Pipe

    "Figo" coming from Pistol in Shakespeare's Henry V is essentially saying F U! The "Fig of Spain." An old Roman insult, I think.

    (Re)Start Pipes. From the Beginning for a Pipe

    The pipe chooses you! You will know when the right one jumps out. One member might swear you should get a Savinelli 320, but you could be like me and find them hideously ugly. You'll know what you like. There is no "best." Just have fun!

    Sub-Brands/Seconds Made By Comoy from Pipedia

    I've seen some absolutely beautiful Sunrise pipes. I'm finding that "seconds" or even THIRDS that were made by A list brands 50, 60 years ago can be worlds better than "firsts" made these days.

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2021?***

    My absolute favorite English blend: 4th Generation 1882, in a Molina Barrasso straight billiard. One of the nice matte finish ones with the two colored band.

    Savinelli: Saint Nicholas 2021… Already!?! ?

    Going going fast...but I'm sure there will be several more restocks and the other big sites will get them soon. Last year mine came from Tobacco Pipes. I was actually just smoking my 2020 614 about an hour and a half ago.

    Frog Morton Substitute

    I never had Frog Morton, but I have heard more than one person compare MM American Patriot to Frog Morton Cellar, and I have heard more than one person compare Sutliff Mature Red Virginia to the McLelland Reds. I hope this helps.
