1792 Flake from 2015 in a Country Gentleman.
I think that's excellent!I bought my first pipe from John Dengler of Saint Charles, Mo. From the beginning, he helped me design my own blend of tobacco that I have now been smoking for nearly 40 years. Not many can say that. It took us a year to get it right, buy I became so accustomed to it that I rarely smoked anything else. Now, I am working on four of his English Blends.
It use to have all sorts of crazy stuff in it - Deer Tongue in particular. But we refined it to 4 parts Packet and 1 part Lucky Star. Those two in house blends were much easier to make. His shop is still in business since 1917 and they offer most of his blends from the last 100 years and have over 1000 personal blends still kept in a little black book.I think that's excellent!
Now I am wondering what your magic blend is comprised of.
Of all the Deertounge blends I have tried (which are few) Gentleman Caller is my favorite but I need to be in a particular mood for it. Wife and family love the room\beard note of GC.It use

Yes, it was the smell of black cavendish and a hint vanilla that first canny nose when I took up smoking.Of all the Deertounge blends I have tried (which are few) Gentleman Caller is my favorite but I need to be in a particular mood for it. Wife and family love the room\beard note of GC.
