Glad you enjoy it also. I have a good stack of tins - as it sort of replaced Revor for me (which I can't get that for love nor money in Canada). Definitely different, but good stuff
NB: it's also available as Commodore Flake for a bit cheaper ;-)
Now on to a bowl of GH&Co Dark Birds Eye in an Ascorti News Deer Verdigris finish.
Granger in a Kaywoodie Super Grain Billiard.
KBV Byronic Slices in a massive Don Florian Olive.
A third of the way through this bowl of Watch City Simply VOriental in a straight smooth medium brown 1930s Wilshire 5 bulldog (Comoy’s second) made for John’s Pipe Shop in Los Angeles with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.
Finished a bowl of Voriental just before a late dinner. It was great. Now having a bowl of Mac Baen Va flake.
EGR in a Savinelli 320 KS. Tried this blend for the first time several months ago and really didn’t care for it. Went back a few months later and had the same reaction. Decided to hold on to it and went back again yesterday. Not sure what changed (whether the tobacco, my palate, or both?), but I’m thoroughly enjoying it.
Lane Limited Ready Rubbed into a Meer with lady grey tea and milk.
Earlier today I decided to finish off the leftovers in my carry tin before they get too dry :
Mixture of University Flake, Luxury Navy Flake, Amphora Burley and maybe some Pegaus crumbs.
Now having a bowl of Pegasus

Today I smoked Capstan Blue, Cockstrong, and Gawith Balkan Mixture. My goodnight smoke is a second bowl of Cockstrong.
Just finished smoking Low Country Pipe & Cigar Natural Virginia & Burley in a 2020 straight black sandblasted Merchant Service “Bing” Standard with a nickel band and black vulcanite tapered stem.
Now smoking Wilke No. 72 in a pre-1974 dark brown straight Larus & Brother Co. Signature billiard with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem with the initials LCR on the top of the stem. This blend was smoked by Walter Cronkite. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Listening to Burns and Allen on the XM as I work.
While spending a couple of hours with my Saturday ZOOM buddies, I smoked my new Peterson 2021 POTY Heritage Brown 4AB (49/500), filled with Wilke No. 515. A mug of Barrie House Breakfast Ritual coffee went nicely with the smoke and the chat.
Morning all starting off with a bowl of Dunhill EMP in a Peterson St Patrick’s Day Xl02, before the wonderful job of stripping off wallpaper in one of the bedrooms.
Redux of yesterday, OGS in this Svendborg.
And about to light up this. This is one of the blends I instantly liked.

My friend and I went to Cigars International today (well, I guess yesterday, now) and he bought a tin of Cockstrong. First time I had ever seen it. We had a chuckle over the name.
