pbgoldwing55,

You gotta make some allowances for these guys. I guess they're just like "average hipsters or frat boys at university."

Smoking McClelland British Woods, a great English blend.
Everyone is a lot of people.
One can be a gentleman without being a snob. Same as, one can have class without money.

I just finished my last pipe of the day.

I had a bowl of Middleton's Cherry Blend. I like that tobacco usually, but tonight it tasted pretty bad. I switched pipes, and it still tasted bad. I couldn't figure it out.

Then I happened to notice that i was puffing to fast. I have had some personal isuues going on today that left me a little pissed. I guessed that I was puffing way too much and way too fast. I slowed down and started sipping the smoke, and the old flavor I like started comming back.

So, everything is right with the world again. Lol.
I wonder if that is the reason one blend can taste different for different people. Everyone smokes a little differently I suppose.

Anyway, goodnight all.

I received my order of Peter Stokkebye Luxury Bullseye Flake. Smoking it now, and even though I have smoked good flake its absence, it still reigns Supreme.
Yeah Max, when I was going through cancer, I had many things on my mind, and it was hard to smoke slow. At the same time, I may have lost it entirely had I not been able to have a nerve settling smoke.

Because around here we go by the old saying "Smoke what you like and like what you smoke" and we REALLY mean it.
The best tobacco in the world is whatever blend that you are enjoying at that time.
The best pipe in the world is whatever pipe that you are enjoying at that time.
Price has nothing to do with it. It's about how much you enjoy a pipe and/or blend, not how much you spend on it.
I love a nice steak with a glass of wine, but a burger on the grill with beer or soda is great too!
Back on topic.....
I am not smoking anything right now, lol.

This morning was:
Tabac Sherman # 580 - Liberty Golden Virginia.
This afternoon I am currently smoking:
Tabac Sherman Old Oxford No. 649
This is the tobacco Michael Gladis and I smoked during his interview.
He liked it so much that I gave him my 2 oz bag.
Old Oxford No. 649 is super good. You can't get it on the website. You have to call the store directly and place a special order.
I just got a pound of it I like it so much.
