Bob Runowski's reviews of his own blends.

[MisterDearly]

As I've perused the reviews of the Bob Runowski Trinity on TR, I stumbled across his reviews of his own blends. There is a great description of how Pegasus came to be, and course, there's his review of Old Joe Krantz--the one where he relates that the blend is 25% perique and that it is named after his grandfather. I sifted through the reviews for Haunted Bookshop but never found on that seemed to be from him. I'm just curious: did anyone ever find one for HB from him? Did he do reviews on others of his own blends? Bob Runowski is the Archbishop of Burley!

Do you have a link to the Pegasus review? I'd love to read that.

I don't care for reviews, as they mean absolutely nothing to me. But to hear from the guy who created it would be neat!

Here you go. It's the first of 99 reviews, and the reviewer (Mr. Runowski) is shown as "Emeritus Account." Mr. Runowski passed on July 24, 2011.

I didn't know he did this. I'm not really familiar with any of the C&D blenders besides Reeves. Really cool that Runowski did these reviews to talk about the creative process and how he recommends smoking them.

He did! I've only found two of his reviews, but Bob Runowski made some of the most iconic C and D blends: Pegasus, Haunted Bookshop, Old Joe Krantz, Bayou Morning, Big 'n Burley, Epiphany, Morley's Best, etc. I've only found the ones for HB and OJK.
