Welcome from France. You get more taste from Retro inhaling. Practice really smelling your different blends. Also some subtle notes take time. VaPer blends are great for learning as are some english blends. My thinking is start with the obvious notes and work you way in. We are not all taste experts. Just enjoy.

Welcome from the New Jersey Shore, Bob

I was raised at the shore, graduated Manasquan High, and my father smoked only Granger for his entire life in his Kaywoodie.

Welcome, Bob from a young-ish guy in MI. It sounds like you’re off to a great start. It’s taken me quite some time to pick up just some of the flavors people talk about and I’m sure you’ll make progress as you stick to it. Show us a pic of you shorthair when you get a chance!

I adopted Riley 8 years ago when she was a year old. I have had many setters over the years but she is my first GSP.
She has an exceptional nose and holds steady and retrieves beautifully. 1st picture is her with friends GSP pointing quail is south NJ and 2nd is last year.

Born and raised in Little Silver. You guys always had good football teams back then (70's,80's). Escaped to Colorado in '89. Welcome !

Welcome from KC!! Some people have tremendous palates that let them taste everything under the sun in a pipe tobacco. Don't let it bother you, most of us can't.

No kidding! Well I’ve only been here at the shore for about 7 years. Philadelphia suburbs is where I’m from originally. Granger’s in my wheelhouse too! There’s another fellow here, and I hope he’s ok, as we have not heard from him in a bit, @mso489. His father smoked only Granger for his entire life and always from the pouches. Welcome, Bob. Great people here.

On edit. I had a GSP named Buffy. Great Bird Dog.

This is my current smokin buddy.

Hi and welcome Bob from Northamptonshire, England, and a happy new year to you.

Hi Bob, great to hear your smoking story. German Shorthair pointer‘s are lovely dogs, do you use it as a gun dog or just company? I’m seeing quite a few pheasant around the farm, spotted one in the damn garden before Christmas, fat too.

Anyway’s welcome mate from Tasmania, Australia and hopefully we will see more posts from you.
