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!
