McClelland 40th Anniversary in a Savinelli Sherwood Rock Briar Canadian and a cup of coffee on a chilly morning on the balcony.
Life is good.

I just did something that I rarely do: opened two 50g tins of tobacco. Both Fribourg & Treyer: Vintage and Blackjack.

Vintage is a mild Virginia flake with a prominent topping — sometimes too prominent.

Blackjack is a finely cut ready rubbed Virginia. No topping at all, and zippy — sometimes too zippy.

I figured that a 50/50 blend of these two would be good. And, by George, I was right! Oddly, the blend doesn’t taste like something halfway between the two components, but like an entirely different (and excellent) tobacco. I put both tobaccos into a jar to retain moistness,, as it’ll take me awhile to go though 100g.

I won an auction on Ebay that included some tobaccos bought in England at a duty-free shop: St. Bruno flake, Revor plug and Condor. After rehydrating the Condor, I have been smoking it almost exclusively for the last few days and have enjoyed every bowl of it.

Just got home from a Dr. appointment and had a quick bite to eat. No time to truly enjoy a cigar today, so I popped open a tin of Viprati and packed my PSF POY bent egg and am enjoying the heck out of it.

Have a great evening folks!

Wait... what? So you won some collector tins on ebay. Don't you know that the tobacco inside is not for human consumption?

Lol. The seller had the listing titled "Savinelli Napa leather tobacco pouch" and had the pouches in the photo. That's how they sneaked it past Ebay's rules of not selling tobacco. But I see others selling tins regularly on Ebay, despite their latest rule which forbids it.

This morning I am waking up with a bowl of Condor in a Hendon billiard. Just finished some Maxwell House coffee and getting ready for work.
