I have that same tobacco! It's called IDKWTF.

I have some too. Its a common blend of 50 others dumped into a mason jar.

It’s an unusual blend, a mix of ribbon, wild and cube cut but the more I smoke it the better it gets. I recommend letting it mellow for a couple of weeks but try a bowl first to see how it changes. I’m not sure if I’ll be getting more but I’ll definitely finish the tin. Personally I don’t notice any Latakia so if it’s there it’s a tiny amount, a little rough initially but once the top evaporates a bit it calms down. It’s worth trying however especially if you like liquorice.

Thanks for the run down. It sounds interesting, I think I'll pick one up next time I order from Estervals.

Awesome Zulu!

Thanks, Paul. A favorite of mine both visually and as a smoker.

Would you like me to do one of my SP descriptions?

"With its 45 degree semi-cropped heel, slightly extended shank and long, sweeping stem of the most exquisite..."

Sorry. Shooting a sitting duck; bad form, what?

Happy Friday, all.

Cloozoe's #2 ("...a naïve domestic blend but we think you'll be amused by its presumption") in a Schicklgruber.

32. Profusion, abundance, galore, plenty, superfluity, spate, heaps, loads, much, lot, lashings, oodles, scads, multitudes....

600. Perseverance, tenacity, stubbornness, steadfastness, staunchness, obstinacy, doggedness, application, staying power, sedulity, endurance, undaunted....

I prefer to clean my pipes at about 32, too. 600 in the queue will indeed demand those traits.

Dark Star in the Altinay. It took about 10 minutes to get it going but it’s smoking beautifully now. Happy Friday good people!

A third of a bowl left of year 2013 Rotary Navy Cut in a post-1938 Pre-Republic Peterson Dublin straight smooth X155 bulldog with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. Nigel Bruce smoked this model in two Sherlock Holmes movies. Please consider asking Smoking Pipes to bring back this model.

Kind of an epic smoking day for me (usually only have time for one bowl). Two bowls of SWRA in a Stanwell Dublin earlier. Now enjoying Squad Leader in a Pete Dracula 150 while listening to the rain.

 

[JimInks]

Part way through this bowl of year 2012 Rolando’s Own in a smooth straight early ‘60s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem.

 

[AppalachianPipe92]

Starting the night with some McClelland 5115 with roughly 15% perique added. Smoking from a Daniel Barker dublin with a cup of tea.

I went on a big San Andres kick this year and found some great smokes. Definitely a wrapper I'm fond of. Tatuaje was my intro and still some of my favorites

Sound good! what Tatuaje might you recommend starting with?
