Russ's Cinnamon Roll (from Nov 2013)... in New Cobs

Nice.
This is a great switch-up smoke.
Dry. Not sweet. More cinnamon than roll. But it's such a nice little difference from the Virginia's I'm been working on.
Absolutely no bite, but a nice woodsy cinnamon taste, to my taste buds, anyway.
Know what? I bet this would be an over-the-top treat in a new cob. Going to do that next bowl. Buttery cinnamon? I'll let you know real quick here.

Okay. Two going at once, then.
Cinnamon in a new cob is a winner, in my book. The taste isn't quite what I predicted, but delicious just the same. Very nice. I might even keep some on hand to break in other cobs.

I've got some of that kicking around here. I believe I'll have a bowl of it in a few minutes in my ol' Ropp cherrywood.

Something to consider are the new blends Russ developed for Missouri Meerschaum. All of them are outstanding in a cob and worth a try.

Russ gifted some of that Cinnamon Roll to my wife last year at the Vegas Show. She loved it! As for me, when I took a whiff, I didn't know whether to pull out my pipe or a fork! Man, that stuff smells delicious!

Definitely a nice odor. There are times when I'm smoking that I'm in "pause," and during that little break, pipe still clenched in my teeth, I catch the scent I imagine others catch, as opposed to what I'm tasting in my mouth. And it is definitely a pleasant fragrance when that happens.
papipeguy -- will try them out!
