Going to pack a bit of Gawith Hoggarth Sweet Maple Twist (2013) (cut thin and dried for a couple of hours) in a Savinelli Trevi rusticated billiard. Not sure I get much maple but this is a hearty tobacco for sure.

If it does send some South, we could use some, hopefully Friday we got a good chance.C&D Exclusive in a Radice Bulldog and the last of the Coffee️

Having some cube cut Wessex Gold plug VA in my Briarworks C52 with coffee on the side. All the while the hummingbirds conduct a coup on the feeders.
Not sure how many of you have hummingbird feeders, but often dominant ones will "take over" a feeder and run all of their buddies away. This went on for a while and finally the peasants stormed the Bastille and ran the dominant ones off. Now, they are feeding like there's no tomorrow, ha.
Had the horses up in stalls last night due to the much needed rain. But now I have to go clean stalls and do some repair work. Shoveling horse manure is a sure-fire method of putting one back in one's place in the universe.

Boy, he's a beauty, for sure. We don't have this breed in Tennessee and as territorial as you say they are, I guess I am glad we don't.We have three feeders and the black necked hummingbirds like to spar but everyone gets a drink. Then the jerks of the hummingbird world show up later in the season. The Rufous hummingbirds are very territorial and aggressive. I have seen one male Rufous keep six black necked off from three feeders for quite a while. Luckily, they are just passing through on there way to their breeding grounds in the Northwest. They are fun to watch though during their brief stays.

I have smoked this on several occasion,found it somewhat bland tasting but can be echanched by adding some bolder tobaccies or even periqueSmoking this legendary tobacco from Mac Baren: Amsterdamer. In a MM Cobbler. A gift from a friend who was on vacation in Andorra with his wife and daughters. Well, it's a tobacco that sells very well here in Spain, especially for rolling cigarettes. I would have liked to write a brief review of this tobacco, but my sense of smell is not 100% and could lead to a misleading result. All I can say, having smoked it on other occasions in the past, is that I remember it as a good everyday tobacco, easy to smoke, mild, with few relights and low nicotine content. A subtle fruity, hay-like touch. Somewhat flat and neutral. An everyday tobacco, or a tobacco for battle, as we say here in Spain. What do you think? Has anyone else tried it? Do you like it?
