I whipped up a VaPa this a.m. with C&D Va Flake and McLelland's perique, about 65/35 or slightly less on the Perique.
I know it needs some time but I'm smoking a bowl in my Linkman's straight Rhodesian Supreme. Pre WAR Grabow's seem to be good wood, or the 2 I have do. Their Westbrooks are nice smokers in the main, too. I'll have to get some more Grabows. I actually like the condenser scoop stingers.
