    Absolute Mildest Nicotine With Latakia and/or Orientals

    I want to follow this thread because I have to be careful myself. I don’t get anxiety but have high bp lately. I don’t remember for sure but want to say straight Va is the lightest nicotine. Maybe put another way the sweetest tobacco has the lowest nicotine. I believe dark fired and perique...

    Peterson My Mixture 965

    I understand. I think the fresh seems better if we have a taste for the Lat and the aged better if we have a sweet tooth. I will smoke a few more bowls of the Match before I make my mind up but will probably cellar more. Similar vein: I have some 10 year aged Maltese Falcon that I am tempted...

    Peterson My Mixture 965

    To be fair it’s not a fair comp for me. My 965 is all over 4 years aged and I have a fresh sample of the Match 20. On a second bowl of Match20 now. Fresh it seems like my (also aged) EMP but with a bit more Lat. The aged 965 is just a lot sweeter for me so far, that I attribute to the age...

    Peterson My Mixture 965

    I think 965 is delicious. I’m about to give my very first bowl of Match 20 a try.

    ***What Are You Smoking, March 2024?***

    I’m enjoying the fading of the day and first smoke in a new pipe. The pipe is a Peterson System Standard in the Heritage finish with nickel mount and p-lip. The tobacco is John Cottons Double Pressed Crème. This is my very first System Pete as well as first go with a p-lip. Not bad but will...

    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2024?***

    Enjoying a beautiful warm evening watching the sun fade across our yard with my bride of 22 years. We are enjoying a good cold American beer while I smoke a bowl of MacBaren Plumbcake in my 8673 Rubino Antico Rossi pipe.

    Favorite Halvsies

    My most recent attempt was a pinch equal of: CD Chocolate Cav, Boswells Chocolate Creme, Lane BCA, and CD Billy Budd. It was delicious to me, tasted similar to dark (but unsweetened) chocolate.

    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2024?***

    Enjoyed a hearty meal of turkey stew and broccoli salad this evening. Decided to pop a 2020 tin of Haddos Delight that had been taunting me lately. The whoosh greeted me to a raisin, bready, fruity aroma. I’m smoking it in a Rossi that I can’t remember the model of but think it is 8626. I will...

    ***What Are You Smoking, January 2024?***

    Currently enjoying “leftovers “.. my last two bowls were EGR and Bobs Chocolate and there was enough leftovers in my drying dish to load my MM Charlestown Cobbler. The smoke is great and I am in process of grilling some home grown steaks on a simple old charcoal grill. Enjoining a Pilsner beer...

    ***What Are You Smoking, January 2024?***

    Currently enjoying some John Cotton Double Pressed Crème in my Bings Favorite along with a sip of Crown Vanilla. For a few weeks now I have been enjoying this JCDP Crème in a few different style pipes and then rotating those same pipes to Bobs Chocolate.

    New Pipe vs Old…

    My Country Gentleman is my favorite pipe. Don’t overlook Rossi if you are allured by Sav and want to experiment at a lower price point.

    ***What Are You Smoking, December 2023?***

    Cracked my first tin of JCDP Cream and enjoyed a bowl in one of my MM cobbs that only had a bowl or two in it prior.

    What I am smoking in August

    I have been on a brief but enjoyable hiatus to my cigars until today. Most enjoyed cigars were Camacho Triple Maduro and my all time favorite Flor de Antillias. Discovered some Windjammer that I jarred right after it came out today and am enjoying it in a MM Country Gentlemen. It has been nice.

    Jim's C&D Corn Cob Pipe & A Button Nose Review.

    Didn't know they changed it. I think I have a tin or so from a few years ago and remember enjoying it. Sounds like I need to revisit old and maybe try the new. Thanks Jim!
