I treated myself tonight, having a bowl of McClelland bulk 2015 jarred on July 10, 2003 in a smooth English made bulldog.
First bowl out of the Ball jar, it is amazing. I taste rich virginias with a natural sweet deep, dark cherry flavor. The perique is clearly playing it's part as well delivering an extremely pleasurable smoke. Aging is not fake news, if you have some will power you will be rewarded with a very unique experience. I love smoking a pipe!
