Mac Baren Vanilla Cream Loose Cut in the Bones this morning.

I've been having some real nasty sinus headaches lately and I'm guessing it's from retrohaling Virginia flakes and Burley blends that always seem to sting my sinuses a bit, so I'm taking a break from my usual blends and just smoking mellow aromatics for a few days. At some point I'd really like to find an un-topped plain Virginia/Burley blend that I can retrohale without it stinging my sinuses, but thus far I seem to only be able to retrohale sweet aromatics without sinus discomfort. Well, those and Nightcap, but Nightcap seems to be an odd outlier with it's uncanny smoothness.

Now smoking year 2016 Peter Stokkebye Luxury Navy Flake in a straight smooth terracotta 2014 Sherlock Holmes Baker Street bulldog with sterling silver band and a tapered black p-lip stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Enjoyed a short snooze, and near the half way mark of this bowl of unreleased 2021 Sutliff Virginia Flake in a 2014 Savinelli Gaius smooth brown slight bend 320KS author with a black acrylic military mount ferrule and tapered stem. I had forgotten that I had this as I have occasionally been smoking two other unreleased Va. Flakes by Sutliff. This is so much like a deeper, darker Captain Blue. I wonder why they didn't put it on the market?
