Thank you! I bought it new from Marty Pulvers in 2018.
I am smoking my first ever bowl of tobacco from smokingpipes.com! Two weeks less a day to ship to Albertabama, using the cheapest shipping option. Not sure if this is Perique I'm tasting or just plain old I-told-you-so satisfaction.
The blend is Sutliff Voodoo Queen. The pipe a bent Bulldog. The flavors are well beyond my ability to describe after a twelve hour day of running a machine, so... You'll have to settle for "complexity and just the right amount of Latakia" as a description. I can maybe muster some metaphor. Let's see. Hmmm. Puff Puff... Smoking this bowl is like smoking that first proper bowl after a long day at work.
I'm beat. This is good stuff. I was looking forward to having a nice bowl today, but it's even nicer to be trying a new blend. Also, for my fellow Canucks, 4oz of this stuff cost me less than $20 shipped. Sorry snooty cigar shop owners who happen to sell pipe tobacco, no more money for you!

A nice evening on the deck with some WCC Rouxgaroux in a Savinelli Venere 114KS.

Just past the half way mark on this bowl of year 2016 Sam Gawith Cabbie’s Uncut in a late 50s, early 60s Comoy’s straight smooth dark brown Deluxe 20 billiard with a silver cap military mount and a black vulcanite tapered stem.
Ahhh this is why you puffing like a Train in your YouTube videos, I was like damm, why this guy puffing so fast. LOL ?
I always thought too, that Pipe Smoking Competitions, were to see who could make the bowl last the longest, not to see who can smoke the fastest. LOL
And I guess this is why you like smoking a Clay Pipe, because that is what the Competition will be using.
Good Luck! ?
The Amphora Burley in my brand new Rossi 8311. I love this tobacco as you've probably figured out, and I've been wanting a poker for a while. It was a very pleasant smoke.
Ending the night with some C&D Bayou Night in a Peterson churchwarden. 
GH & Co Dark Bird's Eye in a bent Falcon with rustic Algiers bowl 
Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am smoking Watch City Simply VOriental in an undated straight smooth medium brown Wilshire 5 bulldog (Comoy’s second) made for John’s Pipe Shop in Los Angeles with a black vulcanite saddle stem.
Still smoking HU Director's Cut in my 2014 Ashton Pebble Grain XXX...
Now smoking SWRA in a straight black sandblast undated Savinelli Hercules 115EX pot with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Smoking through a couple of samples I added to my last order:
- McConnel Latakia Flake: a bit boring, not what I thought it would be, the supposed Lakeland is weak, for me, can't taste DFK, the Latakia is very subdued, very middle of the road.
- Rattray's Hal O'The Wynd: not bad at all, not strong though, pretty sweet, good use of DFK and Perique as condiments, I just like more of both.
- McConnel Scottish Cake: not bad either, but nothing special
Good Morning Folks, Hal O'The Wynd in a Falcon.
Enjoyed a tasty, big Envy apple, and a couple of other snacks, and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of KBV Your Welcome in an old, undated brown full bend straight grain London Castle egg with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Reading baseball box scores.
