That's better. I thought you had gone all artistic on me. Remember real men smoke 'cutty's' most of the time!

Looking forward to a Review of this one.

It'll be a couple of days before I finish the review. I need smoke more of it to get a good read on the blend.

Revor Plug in a Pete bulldog. There's Latakia in it! And more than just a kiss! Wasn't expecting it, but I like latakia, so why not?

Did you order this from overseas or is it available anywhere domestically? Sounds right up my alley.

It's 70 degrees so I am off to commune with the Condor Gods in the Garden with the same pipe I have been smoking all day. I just want to see what shade of shit brown I can turn this meerschaum 'cutty' pipe!

Beautiful pipes and very intriguing Sobranie Reserve Blends that I never even knew existed!

The blue tin (Original Virginia Mix) was one of my favourites back in the day . . . sadly there's nothing available today to replace it..
I don't think that it was as widely available as the others in the Sobranie range as it was originally "Reserved for the directors of Sobranie" (at least that's what's I'm led to believe).
