I've been smoking some of the new Cornell & Diehl Red Virginia Flake. I didn't buy any tins while it was available but a friend in the Knoxville Pipe Club gave me some. At the club meeting Wednesday night, I opened a tin of Ashton's Consummate Gentleman and everyone liked it.
That's one of my favorite tobaccos. Just ordered some more from P&C this morning.Quote:

Managed to get a pipe in before work today. Dunbar in an old Grabow Starfire.
Monday rainy commute day commemorated with Irish Flake in my Stanwell silver band.
This evening I had decided to dig through my old bag of stash and came across this tiny free sample bag of "Harvest Moon" tobacco that is more than 10 years old; I decided to try it in my corncob.:pipe: I don't have any memory of where I got it, but it has definitely been sitting there for more than 10 years. This tobacco was still moist after all this time. After lighting it, I found that it was a very sweet aromatic, flavorful, ran hot and was not to my liking; after smoking half a bowl I dumped it out.:sick: I am now having a bowl of SG FVF in my Savinelli 606EX and am enjoying it.:santa: I am topping off this smoke with a small glass of brandy and the train is "back on the track".:wave:
Last night I burned a bowl of Sweet Rum Twist in a gourd calabash.
This pipe is perfect for these strong blends; smallish bowl size and it really mellows the smoke.
Happy Thanksgiving Bums!
May your cigars be delicious and burn perfect
and
best wishes for the happiest of holidays to you and your family.
To you as well. I was traveling thru the middle of nowhere the last 2 months and missed your return but would like to welcome you back to the forum.Quote:
