Just cracked open a tin of 2022 St. Bruno flake, trying for the first time in an MM Apple Diplomat with a Forever Stem.

Really nice tin note, tobaccoreviews has it at an Aro, SPC a VA, but then in the description SPC says topped with floral and citrus. Toppings are Aros, not sure why SPC says the Family is VA. 🤔

I’m still trying to figure it out, as I’ve only started smoking it.

Floral is more prominent for the moment, with a Kentucky vibe, light VA, and maybe a teenie citrus lingering in the back.

What’s interesting, the entire time, after taking around 7 puffs, each time, a tingly/fizzy sensation on the tongue I’ve never experienced before with any blends. As to what’s creating this sensation hmm... It’s actually pleasant too... odd.. 🤔

I’d say, for anyone liking VAs & Kentucky, that’s never tried this, you might enjoy it. Whatever is gong on, Toppings or Casings it’s subtle, not overwhelming at all, it simply comes across like a different varietal of a Kentucky.

Be well everyone! ❤️

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and snow peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm not far from finishing this bowl of John Aylesbury Scottish Blend in a 2002 black pebble finish straight Cavicchi C. Fatto A Mano lovat with a black acrylic saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Watching the Braves-Dodgers game.

SG&Co. Squadron Leader special edition with Perique (getting low in the tin) in a Savinelli 673 Opera smooth bent bulldog which I would nominate for the Savinelli that looks most like a Peterson. This lovely blend was sent to me by a member. Merci beaucoup. My wife gave me the pipe for one Christmas; she's given me some great pipes.

This pipe has forced me to commission a couple of pipes. They won’t mirror this one in finish but will in shape (kinda) which I find very aesthetically pleasing. If Larrysson was still producing I’d be all over him, his work is clever and very well done. Gorgeous pipe @hoosierpipeguy
Thank you. Not only did Paul carve beautiful pipes, he was a perfectionist with his fit and finish and drills. His pipe smoke fantastic.

Hi, I been gone a while. Life issues, but I wanted to know if I could sell some of my tobacco. I didn't know the rules surrounding this so I wanted to ask someone with experience on this forum. Can I post my tobacco bags on "new post" or is this not allowed?
