The licorice thing with Nashville County has scared me away. For some reason licorice as a flavoring disgust me every time I try it, especially with snus. I like licorice as it is though which is the odd part. If it came in a 50g tin I would probably have tried it.

C&D in a no name claw with a stout pour of rum.
OJK in a Wiley Galleon. Reading the new Stephen King book.
Half way through this bowl of year 2021 first production Watch City Simply Orange Virginia in a black sandblast medium bend Peterson POTY 4AB No. 182/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. With help from a friend, I have somebody coming over to see if he can fix our air conditioner.
SWRA in another Medico Seafoam.
Started my Saturday as i often do with pipers pleasure. Now enjoying an afternoon bowl of Sun Bear. Playing D&D later and am drying some Tombigbee to enjoy during the game. Pipes used in order Nording 506, Peterson406 Emerald, and my MM Boone Cob
Perhaps i have a dull palate, but the licorice doesn't come across as distinctly licorice to me at all. I think the spice from the topping plays well with the perique element to make something quite unique. Tell you what, i like it, so if you put it on a future order and hate it, just pm me. I'll do a satisfaction-guarantee buy back program for yas. I wouldn't mind having another tin around anyway.
Onto the afternoon programming...time to tune into a bowl of St James Flake in a Bellezia w/ horn.
2022 eight state burley in a tekin.I’ve been smoking more Va blends lately and this pipe is just so badly ghosted with burley that it doesn’t smoke Virginias or va/pers very well. It is an absolute burley machine though.
Beachcombing with the fam in Homer, having some SPC BBA Hogshead in the Moonshine stublin.
2021 Lancers Slices in a 320ks
Bob’s Chocolate Flake in an IMP Poker
First bowl of Wilke red oriental, not bad.
After a day of a little fishing, a little hiking, and going to see the oldest fossilized trees in America (we didn't set out to go there, just stumbled upon them), I'm enjoying C&D Tuggle Hall in a Peterson Donegal Rocky #53 Lovat with a glass of iced water.
I'm running a little low on tobacco so I decided to try the Sutliff Sweet Viirginia again. This time I took about 2-3 ounces out of the bag to dry out. I decided to use an old (30+) wooden La Flor Dominicana cigar box which had high cedar side walls. I dumped the tobacco in and leveled it out. When I loaded a pipe about 5 hours later I selected the tobacco that felt dry. Wow, much better and sweeter smoke than previous attempts. The bag note was definitely prunes like sniffing a can of Dole pitted prunes. I'm going to use this cigar box as a drying tray from now on. Its just the right size. about 2x6x8 guestimate.
Close to finishing this bowl of Peretti 00 in a straight black sandblasted circa 1950s Comoy’s Peterson’s made for Peterson, Ltd. in Wisconsin billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. We were very lucky to find somebody who changed out the capacitor in our air conditioner on a holiday weekend. Paid more than we would have on a weekday, but it's worth not having to wait until Tuesday, so I'm not complaining.
First time trying a bowl of G.L. Pease Embarcadero in a cob. Thoroughly enjoyed this interesting blend despite some noisy neighbors.
