    St. Bruno: Will It Ghost?

    For me, it's so light it's hard to tell. The slight ghost, like has been said before, comes from the combo of the floral/tonquin flavoring, and of the dark tobacco's themselves.

    St. Bruno: Will It Ghost?

    I've smoked a pouch recently and it leaves a slight ghost. I'm a fiend for that flavor though I wish it had even more.

    C&D Burley Flake #1 Love Thread

    So here goes my one bowl review... For what it's worth. Pipe used - Brand new MM 5th Avenue Diplomat with included paper filter. Drink - Big glass O' water. Smoked on a full belly of braised short rib stew. The smoke - C&D Burley Flake #1 dated early March of 2020. For those unaware, the...

    C&D Burley Flake #1 Love Thread

    What a convenient thread. I just scooped this out of a package. I have to say, I've really been looking forward to trying it. I've been craving burley and am diving into the deep end with burley blends for the first time. I'll try to crack it tonight to share my thoughts....

    What Do You Think About Ken Byron Blends?

    As a VaOr and VaPerOr lover, KBV means more options for me. I also like his use of red Virginias and the stoving/aging methods he uses. That being said it's certainly different, and I can see how some would be not pleased with the bang for the buck factor. I enjoy the Mylar packaging and...

    Watch City Deluxe Crumb Cut in a Mark Twain Cob with a frosty German pilsner. Amazing.

    Perique Sourcing

    Thanks! I'll have to pick some up eventually. I'm trying all the different periques I've bought, it'll take a while for me to get enough time with each to share my experience.

    ***What Are You Smoking, October 2020?***

    You're not wrong. I just can't believe Greg Pease is the one who blended it! If I tried it in a blind taste test I'd never have guessed it was a GL Pease blend.

    Update on Esterval's Dispute

    Thank you for sharing the update. I had a long post typed out, but to spare the rant I don't see Estervals as an option for me going forward. Like has been said before, "Too many good blends to deal with all that," likewise - "To many good merchants to deal with all that."

    Does Perique Add Anything Other Than Spice?

    YES. Like has been said before by Hoosier, there are different perique types. And even within the same "Type", there are different organizations that can sauce or store their perique in different ways that greatly affect its presence and influence on a blend. Perique is also a variable product...
