Good morning. Finally the real cold has arrived, and winter. So the viruses are walking around the city. No smoking today. Yesterday I caught one hell of a cold. I can't drink cold beverages, a couple of cold beers, knocked me out. So, chicken broth, blanket, and a stick in my mouth. I wish you a happy Saturda
Yes, the cold front we have had during the past two weeks were quite frustrating, the daytime temps were constantly between -15 to - 20c (4- 4,9 f)in the northern parts of the country temps were plummeting to -30c, but this seems to be over at least for the time being'' Hope You will feel better in the coming days, take care J.J

Have you heard the story of "The never ending tin/jar" good people? I haven't either but I can't give any other explanation to the fact that I opened this tin of yellow Capstan (and transferred it in a jar) many months ago. Since weeks, when I reach it, I say to my self "this is the previous to the last bowl from this" but next time... I say just the same thing! It is recreated by itself! There must be a piece of the philosopher's stone in it...
Anyway I am smoking some. In a Falcon.
Have a good Saturday all!

Dear friend Paul. Those temperatures only I have in my freezer at home. My goodness, take care of yourself.

On it’s own it can be intense.
A pinch in an aromatic or english blend does well for me. I think of it as a tobacco version of hot sauce😁
@PaulRVA The Rustica is the strongest pipe baccy the Clay King has ever smoked. Got a serious baccy rush from it; need to sit down to smoke the Rustica and not smoke it too hard:)
The Clay King likes Virginia / Burley / Cavendish blends most.
