My palate was ruined by a blind review I joined and now I think Lakelands are normal and even desirable.

Listing this early so I can concentrate on work for a while: Tilbury in a medium bend raw sienna toned early Radice sandblast egg with bamboo craving on the shank.
Giving the Peterson Irish Flake another try. I didn't want to just write it off after only one bowl, and after a long day today I wanted the Vitamin N hit that I knew it would provide.
I didn't hate it, but I'm still not won over either. Still on the fence.
However after 1/2 of a pretty large bowled pipe I am feeling the relaxing effects of the nicotine though. Or maybe that's the Jack and Coke. Whatever.

Half way through this bowl of Velvan Plug in a 2002 IMP smooth full bend egg shaped meer.
Peter Stokkebye Aromatic Dutch Sliced with a sprinkle of H&H Larry's Blend to smoky it up.
Amazing the difference the Larry's Blend made; The tiny sprinkle (maybe 10%) of LB TOTALLY concealed the flavor of the ADS. Tasted like not much more than a very weak version of LB. I enjoy both these blends but mixed it wasn't very good. Live and learn.
Could have been the pipe too. Smoked it in my glass bottom, semi churchwarden Country Gentleman. This pipe seems to tone down the flavor of certain blends... I'm not sure why.
