Indeed. I was fairly quiet on here in 2024. Expecting to be more present this year.

Eh, it's alright.
Truly, it comes down to smoking style. I almost exclusively smoke C&D, and generally speaking my C&D blends "like" to be smoked a certain way. So when I step outside that house I need to adjust, and can/do. But it's not my speed, and that's worth acknowledging.
I sold off a bunch of Marlin Flake for this reason. Delightful stuff that, to me, feels like a fuss to smoke. But someone who loves 1792 may find Pegasus (or Exclusive, or whatever) to burn funny, for them
Half way through this bowl of pre-2014 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Deciding on whether or not to chance a set of walking reps before the snow hits.
Luxury Twist Flake in a Jesse Jones natural finish Brandy. I had this pipe made in 2016 and I think it is coloring (darkening) nicely.
Now smoking Robert McConnell’s Latakia Flake. I don’t know how to date these tins, but it must be at least several years old. It’s very smooth for a Scottish/Kentucky blend and it’s pretty strong. I rather enjoy this one, but only on occasion. It’s nice for a stout nic hit and is smoother than many heavy Kentucky blends.
After breakfast bowl o Pegasus in an HS Studio panel. I've been smoking so much of this in the mornings, my wife is growing more and more concerned when i tell her i'm spending time with "Peggie." 
Thanks! It’s a good one. I decided to get it after assuming you had sold the Nording I pm’d you about
Ok yeah I am not a daily smoker of non C&D flakes for this reason. There are some that are less fussy than others but it’s funny that you say that about Marlin Flake. It’s one of the only tobaccos in my cellar that I’ll likely sell off as well. Based on what you post we have VERY similar tastes in tobacco.
