I have a 4 year old tin of CEC. I bought it because I like the name. You are the first person I've seen on here to mention smoking it so I have to ask, what do you think of it?

It’s a beautiful mid- 60’s on the porch this evening and I’m relaxing with a bowl of Dunbar and a pour of Sam Houston 14 yr. bourbon. Cheers!

Samuel Gawith: 1792 Flake in a Meer...​

@weezell Nice pipe; I've smoked 1792 Flake in my clay pipes. I feel it would suit my Redcoat character!
I'm using an empty tobacco tin to store my slow match; need to keep it dry

Was craving some Virginia flake so, I got grabbed some Newminster400 SNF and packed my Bertram 30 slightly bent Pot and pulled a cold Kolsch Home Brew. I love this pipe, it’s a great flake and cut plug smoking pipe. Happy smokes all!

It has a very unique flavor. I can’t pick out any of the components and the topping (rum?) is a bit overwhelming when fresh.
The stuff I’m smoking now has been in a jar for a year. The topping has mellowed some and I like it much better than when it was fresh. I get a good volume of smoke from this tobacco and I like the mouth feel and after taste. I don’t think there is any cigar leaf in it but it reminds me of some cigar blends I’ve smoked. Overall I’d have to say that I like it - but it’s something I have to be in the mood for.

Union Square in a Kiko Meer. The shape of this is kind of a teaser. If the Royal Post and USPS cooperate I’ll do a cool reveal. Then this pipe is leaving my stable.

Awesome. Very helpful, thanks.

Loaded up the Big Ben bulldog with some Eastfarthing. First time trying this blend. The search for an English blend with a room note the wife can tolerate continues. We'll see how this one rates.View attachment 141109

You should try Black Maria from John Dengler in St. Charles, MO

Thank you sir. I'll check into that for sure. Amazingly she said "That's not too bad". High praise from my wife when it comes to an English blend.

Still working through a 10 year old tin of McClelland’s Beacon. Pipe is a blasted Willmer Lumberman.
