I wish I had the knowledge and vocabulary with which to explain it. There’s some element missing for me in the taste, although there are things I like: the orientals maybe. I prefer the aftertaste over the flavor when smoking. Also, it reminds me a little of some Chinese herbal decoctions.What don’t you like about? I ask because I have some cellared but I have never actually smoked it.
Lovely. Also where did you get that pipe cleaner pouch?Balkan Supreme in Peterson Ashford 606. Latakia really hits the spot after so many weeks of no pipe.

Love your taste in meers Hoosier!
@dino many happy returns my friend ??My family: my wife, daughter, son-in-law, grandson, granddaughter and my sister, took me out for a birthday dinner (76!), to a local Greek restaurant, the Psistaria.
Great food and family warmth and love.
When I got home, I fired up a bowl of McClelland's Samovar in my Peterson Sherlock Holmes Original. I set it in the Peterson Sherlock Holmes pipe rest, a wonderful gift from LatakiaDave. Again, thank you, my friend Dave.
To complement my smoke, I had a few drams of Jack Daniel's Single Barrel-Barrel Proof (67.5% ABV).
