    Yo some Gawith guys I'm really happy for you and I'ma let you finish, but...

    It's just rolled like cigar but as I remember it wasn't that tight like other ropes. You slice it and then rub a little.

    What Is Your Slowest Smoking Tobacco?

    I've got no experience with cube cut but maybe that smokes slow. If you look at it this way it's like burning a whole bunch of mini plugs;)

    Poland which is Central Europe or as some call it Eastern Europe.

    What Is Your Slowest Smoking Tobacco?

    I found it easier to stuff bowl with folded flake than with ready rubbed. Even If you push it very hard there are always enough air pockets to keep it lit.

    Ahhhh...obviously. Unfortunatelly I can't find them in smoke shop where I live and ordering them abroad is prohibited.

    Yo some Gawith guys I'm really happy for you and I'ma let you finish, but...

    I did. Maybe I'm not very sensitive to nicotine or maybe that because I'm smoking like 3 times a week usually, sometimes to 2 bowls a day and maybe nicotine breaks out different that way. I remember it to be very oily in taste (and left oily black residue in whole pipe) when fresh and sweet...

    Yo some Gawith guys I'm really happy for you and I'ma let you finish, but...

    Well I'm not such a big guy to mailorder kilos of custom recipe tobacco from manufacturer :D even I think it's forbidden by law or very difficult. What do you mean by "dark and brown flake". Firedance Flake is Best Brown Flake cased with some fruits aroma so if it counts then yes. I'm not...

    What Is Your Slowest Smoking Tobacco?

    Isn't that the more compressed tobacco the longer it smokes? Have you tried some plugs or twists? I like my tobacco just like my... excuse me. I like my tobacco chunky not rubbed out and it smokes quite long...

    Yo some Gawith guys I'm really happy for you and I'ma let you finish, but...

    Well I was thinking about some twist tobacco with added strong lakeland essence not twist aromatic per se. Or rather absence of said. I can shred some rope tobacco and add some Lakeland blend but that's not the point.

    Ok, so here is "hot take" as some of youngers of preset day used to say. As none of you, gentlemen, may know lately I've been ghosting like crazy my pipes with some Lakelands. My frendship ended with Latakia and Perique and now some soap and eau de cologne scented tobacco is my best friend. So...

    More New Forums Members Than Ever? Why Is That?

    Can't say for others only for myself. I'm from small country in Europe and I'm using internet since newsgroups (too bad they are gone, those were the times). I'v seen rise an fall of disccusion boards when came social media, facebook ect. Local pipe smoking web pages and forums are pretty much...

    Please "School Me" on Perique.

    As far as I know I haven't had. But maybe I just don't know I had? Haven't tried Mac Baren HH Matured Virginias, maybe will if I find it here. Talking about Cabbie's Mixture it was certainly something gone wrong in the making. Had one before and was rather fruity, no vinegar. I've got tin of...

    Good Money Sweet Twist

    Sir, I'm deeply sorry to say you did everything wrong. I might have some greenhorn's advice to (maybe) make your experience with smoking twist a little bit better. Well, maybe not. I've got some experience with twists/ropes made of Virginia by S.Gawith or G&H I always mismatch them and after...

    Please "School Me" on Perique.

    Well, talking about Kentucky, it's some BBQ note but only the "smoke" part. We take it by mental connection to "smoked meat" but that "meat" part isn't there. Have never tried any McClelland's, only heard stories... Got myself a pouch of Cabbie's mixture which is Virginia with Perique rolled...

    Please "School Me" on Perique.

    Yes it does. Fish sauce contains fermented fish and still tastes umami;) but don't make me elaborate. Maybe that's because my bottle of worcestershire is 2 years past expiration date but I can taste only something like balsamic vinegar and some hot spices.

    Please "School Me" on Perique.

    That worcestershire sauce part, call me simple minded, I've rushed to kitchen and took couple drops straight from the bottle. To me it tastes of vinegar and hot spices I think I would describe certain blends with Perique tasting like that.

    Please "School Me" on Perique.

    M'kay, I was thinking about rambling about how umami and savory are different things in culinary and how you wouldn't like instant ramen taste in your tobacco but apparently I'm not in my "man yelling at the clouds" mood. I think that bold flavor of soy sauce Jeremy of C&D was talking about is...

    Burley Blends for Those Who Dislike Burley

    Well I would say Solani Aged Burley Flake but apparently they changed the recipe and haven't had upgraded version in my bowl.

    Please "School Me" on Perique.

    I wrote something really silly, then deleted it, then again something and it was just some stupid joke on an old internet picture and decided I need some proper sleep and then try to post here more. Little information overload with being more than one Perique. I consider smoking it saute just...

    Please "School Me" on Perique.

    Yes I feel this this way. It's "interacting" not "enhancing". The remark about tasting pure perique is good (regarding me writing about tasting pure MSG) unfortuntely where I live I can't get blending Perique and even if I could get one I don't plan making my own blends.
