Just finished a bowl of Dunhill Three Year Matured Virginia in an older banded Dr. Grabow.

Think I'll finish the evening off with a bowl of Nightcap in a rusticated Savinelli Bing's Favorite.

I agree with you about the pressure topic; C-clamps just don't produce enough force the way I'm doing it. Don't really want to invest in building a hydraulic press right now, so I guess I'll just stick to making kakes for the time being. The brick was kept pressed for 2 weeks. I sprayed the whole leaves with Rum, brown sugar, and a dab of vinegar; even that didn't hold them together very well. One thing I was thinking about as I was building the leaf pile was how the Latakia chunks (from whole leaf) didn't lay down flat like the rest of the leaves. I wonder if that had anything to do with the delamination of the flakes? Or maybe the ulu that I am cutting the slices is too thick? I think it is just the pressure issue.

Je agree - probably the insufficient pressure.
