No difference at all. The ready rubbed is the cutoffs of the flakes that fall into a vat. Then they are collected and tinned. Same tobacco, man.

Thanks! I didn't know that about the process, but it makes total sense.

HH Burley Flake in a Peterson 106 Captain Pete... and of course a cup of coffee.

How do you like that Skiff? I wanted to get a tin in a recent order, but the shop was sold out...

Oh, ok. I have eaten raccoon in the past. Not bad. Actually, I like the "game" taste. So I don't marinate. Love venison, rabbit, squirrel. I grew up on that meat. Good stuff

I had raccoon once. If memory serves me right, it was a bit greasy, but like you said, not bad. Rabbit is my favorite.

Just passing the half way mark on this bowl of Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation Evening Flake in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson Ebony POTY 4AB No. 422/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. I'm watching Mad Dog Russo. Posted reviews of two new Wilke blends at TR. One of them is No. 515 Double Shot, which is 515 with twice the rum. Smoky Sweet Chocolate is an aro with some Latakia.

This is my first bowl of it. So far it’s good but I still haven’t found a lat blend that I really enjoy.

Is that how you got your fur coat?

What is it about Latakia blends that isn't working for you?

Maybe I’m just not a fan of Latakia. I’ve never had one I’ve considered terrible but I’ve also never had one where I thought I had to have more

Black & Beauty, somehow flowery Perique in a Scandia Billiard, bought at Milnerton Fleamarket, Cape Town.

If you like burley, perhaps an American English blend would be more to your liking. Or at least a blend with a light touch of Latakia? But, as you say, maybe Latakia isn't your thing. At least there are plenty of other varieties out there to smoke.

Half way through this bowl of F&T Blackjack in a straight smooth brown post-WWII Comoy’s Grand Slam billiard 27 Canadian patent 341422 with a black vulcanite saddle stem.

 

[ThermionicScott]

Just had some Watch City Nor'Easter in a cob. I've gotta say, Coke isn't really pairing well with either thing I've smoked today.

This what you don’t see in my usual pics in the WAYS. The 22 Marlin is loaded with subsonics and used for coons that try to steal the cat food. Although I live in a a very dry desert, pesky Coons make their way to the oasis and tear things up. Until, that is…

Eatem. Or save on cat food and feed the cats fricasee of raccoon.
