How does the cognac mixture compare with Pembroke?
Esoterica Woodbridge in a MM Morgan Natural Cob with Creamsicle Forever Stem on a snowy night on the Knik. Finally warming up here, up to 11F. Above zero for once 
Really loving these forever stems, especially for this shape. The Morgan is my favorite MM Flake burner but its so damn short! This Walker stem elongates it considerably

St. Bruno RR in an unfinished Sav Lumberman. God, I love the combo of leaf and flavoring in this blend. It's like it triggers something primitive in me and reminds me of being 14 and sniffing gas or something.
SG Cabbies Mixture in a

Uhle's 44 in a GBD Prehistoric 488 pot.
I've only smoked one bowl of Pembroke before but I have some on the way and I'll do a direct comparison when it comes in. From memory, the Pembroke was lighter and brighter. SHCM seems to have some black VA Cavendish and deeper Cognac flavor. The Cavendish may just soak up more of the topping. Maybe a bit more orientals as well? Pembroke looked like it had more light colored ribbons in it.
Finishing off a sample of C&D Opening Night. I could see this becoming really good with some age.
Had a snooze, and did some reading with a bowl of FVF in a smooth 2002 medium bend eight sided panel top straight grain Rinaldo Collection Silver Line F Egea 05 Titania bulldog with a black acrylic stem. That was a long and very enjoyable smoke.
