Definitely get a small pouch of it man. I’ve only tried Ogden’s stuff so far so can’t comment on Macbaren version yet . I just got through forum members or smokingpipes back when I used to order
Just BCP. This current drop is the first I've ever seen of the plug here in the States.
I believe it’s a similar flavor or even the same an conniston but with the ingredient percentages flipped.
so if bosun is 75% light leaf and 25% dark... conniston is 75% dark leaf and 25% light.
The floral in St. Bruno doesn't jump out at you. I had to stick my nose in the jar to smell it, because people were insisting it was there and I had never noticed it before.
I have a tin of Ennerdale I’ve yet to smoke, I believe around 7-9 years of age.
I just ordered on SPC Bosun Cut Plug and Kenndale Flake, both in bulk, can’t wait to try these all out.
P.S. I will smoke these in Cobs.

Nah, I’m not wasting my time with cheap pipes anymore.Should of kept that dublin
Cheap as in crappy, not meaning Good inexpensive.
So no more cheap crappy for me.
The only good inexpensive pipes I’ll be smoking from are Cobs.
I have a ‘64 Dunhill Shell Briar billiard that I save for my Condor...it’s just makes sense. The rest of whatever Lakeland essence I may experience is relegated to either a Meer of MM. Ghosting can happen on any pipe including Meers and cobs. If you designate a blend to pipe the tobacco & pipe will meld and become one. Even the hand oils & your DNA will eventually impart themselves onto your pipes and season it accordingly.

️Ok then, I also meant the bad crappy, not the good crappy. LOL...
Cheap
Crappy
Inexpensive
My head is getting dizzy.... LOL ?
I like that cheap crappy dublin ! Anyways, I have a dedicated pipe for lakelands when I'm in the mood for a bowl but don't mind a ghost with some tobacco.
When I quit I had about 25 cobs and 35 briars. When I ordered cobs I ordered 10 and when I ordered tobacco I ordered a lb. I bought tins but much more bulk. I bought big and bought for value.
I didn't smoke many aros with the exception of 1792, to which I dedicated a big Italian billiard. Every other aro got smoked in a cob, including Condor. I sensed magic in this blend but never found it, which was good because after two credit card orders I stopped buying it.
Credit card debt even in service of Condor is not justifiable and not a value. Not tainting briars with aros is.

Slightly off track, but this thread has reminded me of the tin (I vacuumed sealed bag don’t worry) of exotic passion/orange I have. Have any of you dedicated a briar to this? I’m wondering whether when I get around to opening it I just kick start off a new cob with it.
No briar, I Aint afraid of no ghost.
Clay, cob's and my Godfathers KAYWOODIE meerschaum
I smoke anything in anything. I do stick to straight Virginia’s when breaking a in a new pipe, but otherwise I don’t give any thought to what tobacco to smoke in what pipe. But I have lots of variety in both pipes and blends, Lake District and otherwise, so nothing really gets repeated back to back in the same pipe except by random chance.
Here is my dedicated pipe to Lakeland’s, an old GL Lillehammer i accidentally scored unsmoked. It’s the only danish style pipe I own as well. About to go spend the evening in the orchard so this thread helped me decide what to smoke. The only reason I have dedicated a pipe to the genre is because I love the ghost that is developing in the bowl. Actually my favourite way to smoke st Bruno is alternating it smoke for smoke with haunted bookshop in a cob. The floral comes through more as ghost and well adds a rather fitting dimension to HB.
I smoke whatever I feel like in whichever pipe I fancy. I only have 4 pipes and really enjoy Lakeland so the ghosting (not sure I smoke enough or have a sophisticated enough palate to tell...) doesn’t bother me.
