B&M Haul Overview!

[jsiddle]

Ok so I hit up my spot after work and got a few things...
I looked at pipes with smaller chambers, but all the ones they had were pretty expensive... looking for a mini starter not a fancy one...
Picked up bunches of pipe cleaners, and 4 blends...
These guys keep telling me they cant tell me what the blend "really is" as in the one the guy said was 1-Q yesterday, was described today by the guy who knows a thing or two, as "the closest thing we have to 1-Q"
So they allow for 1/2oz bags of blends. so I got four: Strawberry Shortcake (you guessed it, aro) London Fog (which they described as half cavendish half english), then two more he said were really good: texas ranger and tawny park.
I just finished a bowl of the strawberry shortcake... REALLY GOOD stuff... I think this was the bowl that made me decide to continue pipe smoking... Very good flavor and room note, only relit once, but was on the phone. Burnt nice and cool, no tongue bite.
Next I think i will try is the London fog

you mind find you enjoy the english blends. i do, but feel they have there time and place. def not an all day smoke for me. i like an english around a campfire personally.

Glad to see your going to keep with it! Don't let just one blend turn you away from the whole experience. Everyone will have different opinions due to everyone having a different palate.

This makes me think more about the post I started in reference to "house blends" being truely a blend of that B&M or just relabeled goods from another company.
Keep us updated on the other baccy's. Strawberry Shortcake does sound good.

I prefer aros during the day, and an english at night... Keep with it, don't get discouraged and you'll find your perfect blends....
