That'll probably take the edge off :pipe: (OJK is one of the few Runowski Burleys that I have yet to try, but Haunted Bookshop, Morley's Best, and Pegasus are all pretty decent in the strength department-- half a bowl in a small pipe for me, thanks!)Quote:

Love seeing you burn through some burley. HBS was the first Burley blend I ever smoked. It's good stuff.Quote:

2015 Marlin Flake in a 1980s Il Ceppo 4 smooth, oval shank, taper billiard.
Humid still air with sudden gusts makes it very hard to keep matches lit.
Was in the mood for something sweet earlier so I had some Frog Morton Cellar in a pre-Republic Peterson Shamrock.
End of the day smoke was Dunhill Elizabethan Mixture in a MM Legend.
Nice to be off call

2015 Samuel Gawith Best Brown Flake in a 1983 Ser Jacopo Gemma Granato stout taper billiard with a gold/silver band.
Another mixture that I've not smoked in a long time (> 25 years). Has a floral note, well made and other than a trace of that essence it's starting off well.
Just finished smoking Jim’s C Blend in a smooth medium bend straight grain 2001 Karl Erik Ekstravagant brandy with a leaf engraved silver band.

Apparently lots of storms heading our way.
I think it would calm my nerves if I, say, found myself in a haunted bookshop! One of the first C&D blends I smoked. I loved it. Strong and distinct, the Runowski blends all have a special something about them.Quote:

Pray for me Brothers, I started out with my cob and a full load of Captain Black, I then found myself with my Meer in hand and it was smoldering with @NeverBend 's The Professor.But no this was not the end, I am now working on a bowl of PS Lux Navy Flake in my Tally Ho 3/4 bent Briar.And to top it all off I can't get that Germain's Plumcake out of my mind and my BBK is calling.At this rate people will think I'm a PIPER !
The burley/perique and burley/latakia blends are qutie interesting. I'll have to experiment with that for my homemade flakes.Quote:
