Not sure... but I've only had a few. I pick up a powdery-floral something. Do you get that? And if so, do you know what it is?

I'm starting to think I may perceive licorice (or some other flavoring) as this. It's happened across a number of different houses and blends...

On to another gift-sample from the pipe club guys- PS 41

I can't be sure, but some including @JimInks have in their reviews hinted at the possibility of a little deer tongue added.

First pipe since Pipe Club last night was a dip into the generous sample of Pegasus that I still have left over from a Pipe Club brother. Keep being more & more impressed with Pegasus. Thinking I'll just stay with it in several different pipes until it's gone. Then, may make a quick decision to rectify the loss ... :) ... so, Stay Tuned (!!!).

NOTE:
Some commentary from TR's is awesome= "among the world's most perfect tobaccos ... positively transcendent ... easily one of the best 'all-day' blends out there ... a very good smoke ... wonderful ... blew me away ... I think Grandpa would have enjoyed it, too". Hmm, what more could be said any better?

NOTE2:
Being the "Inveterate Tinkerer" that I am (cough, cough), I'm wondering how a pinch of Perique might work?
And the Hue & a Cry will begin immediately, harkening up what used to be said in the Old West = "We're gonna give him a fair trial, then we're gonna take him out & hang him!"

It's about 3:00 AM here and that tends to be the time of night I start getting weird ideas, so tonight I'm smoking what I'm gonna call Strawberry Alarm Clock in a Savinelli 401 Churchwarden.

It's what you get when you take a bowl of Presbyterian Mixture and mix in the tiniest little pinch of Sutliff Frosty Mint, and I'm calling it Strawberry Alarm Clock because it tastes like Incense and Peppermints. 🤪

C&D Oak Alley from 2014 in a Pete. I was looking forward to commenting on a certain STG thread but the commentators seem to have had the thread decommentated. That is a made up word. Carry on. View attachment 356860
All words are made up. I like 'decommentated'. It's useful. Pity about that thread, though - I was really enjoying it, too.
