Bummin' a smoke
Just put in an order with a guy over the pond for 4oz each of 1Q, EMP, LNF, and LTF. Love all of the first three, and a mate has recommended the LTF, so that's a new one for me.

Picked up a new cob and a tin of McClelland Balkan Blue at Georgetown Tobacco in DC.
Stopped by Nat Sherman in NYC and hung out for a little while. Smoked a cigar and bought a tin of Esoterica Dorchester.

A small tobacco order for me.
A couple of favorites, as well as some Dunhill Ready Rubbed. Haven't tried it yet and have been wanting to.
Also picked up a small sample of Bob's Chocolate Flake. This is one I didn't like at first, but its been a year since I've tried it and my palate has changed a lot since then so I'm going to give it another try.

Let me know how that Bob's Chocolate goes. It's one of the few Gawith flakes I have yet to smoke.

Time to get with the program d00d! You need to try BCF, SG Chocolate Flake and SG Cherry Cream Flake and review them all (partly because I'm curious about the cherry cream flake)
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

I've never even heard of cherry cream flake!
But I think this is a chore I could handle! Once I get moved into my new place and things settle down a bit, I'll be on this

Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. - Cherry Cream Flake - Tobacco Reviews
Sounds tasty!
Gawith Hoggarth tho, not SG. Even better Imo although I fear the potential Lakeland monster's hideous head arising

I'm sure there is a decent helping of Lakeland snot there, but that may be a good thing with this blend. Depending how floral it is.
Hmmmm great. Looks like I need to shop a bit

Had a couple bowls of it this afternoon.
The first was straight out of the bag and pretty damp. I did enjoy it much more than I did the first time around. There was a floral/soapy taste that was prevalent. I assume this is the 'Lakeland' taste that everyone refers to. It was not unpleasant at all. The chocolate was noticeable and the latakia was present but in the background.
I tried another bowl that I rubbed out and dried for about an hour. The floral taste was less noticeable.
I actually think I liked it better on the moist side.
Definitely one to try.

I've not smoked any tobacco with "chocolate" in its name, but Solani 656, Aged Burley Flake, has chocolate overtones (for me, at least). And no Lakeland notes, a plus in my book.
