That is a heck of a pic! You drop some liquid smoke in there?Driving around taking care of med stuff. I guess the arrhythmia I’ve been having lately isn’t anything to worry much about, tests are scheduled deep into next month

Scored 227 points axe throwing yesterday & 146 on Saturday. Free pint of Real Ale at the Neptune & got bought one as well.
Been out for pub meal & pint today; not going anywhere tomorrow due to the yellow weather warning.
McClelland 40th Anniversary in an Altinay.
Marlin Flake fell a little flat for me this evening: the weather was cold and windy, the tobacco probably wasn’t dry enough, and overall it was too bland for my taste this evening. I’ll need time to learn its ways.
This afternoon I also opened up a brick of Tabac Manil Reserve du Patron, so I packed some into a Falcon.
It was a world of difference. It had a wide range of flavor: cocoa, new sawdust (in a pleasant way), coconut, roasted parsnip. It also burned pretty quickly, crackled like a little bonfire, and finished in 10-12 minutes. I loaded a second bowl to see whether I was imagining things, but got the same variety of flavors. I’m looking forward to more of this one.

Glad you like it!
I recently cracked a jar from last year's blind pound buy- improved for sure, but didn't change much if that makes sense. Good stuff indeed

Kilgore Trout says that quite a bit!
Love to see a shot of that pipe!
Amphora Virginia in a MM cob. This pouch seems to need more drying than I remembered. Good smoke though.
A nice Tuesday to all of you good people.
