Alternating fills of two vapers again today: Dunhill Navy Rolls, and Wessex Classic Virginia. They’re quite different tobaccos, but I’m liking the Wessex every bit as much as the Dunhill. That’s despite the fact that it’s a good bit less expensive. Ready-rubbed, it’s a bit more convenient, too.
Pride of Lock Lomond in a MM Cob with Jameson Caskmates and ginger ale
I grew up in a small town in Missouri. There were three drugstores, each with a soda fountain. Everybody ordered cokes — plain, vanilla, lemon, cherry, or chocolate. After my junior year of college I had a summer job as an engineering intern at Detroit Edison in Detroit. At the soda fountains there everyone ordered Vernor’s. And most put cream in it. Surprised, I was, but found it was pretty good that way.Quote:

Finishing my last fill of the day — Wessex CV. And time to Ream my Kirsten Mariner. I have the Kirsten custom reamer for it. Milled from steel bar stock, with six cutting edges, and a beautiful knurled brass knob.
"Soo Blend" this morning. Bet y'all have never heard of it :)
It's the house blend from a tobacco/furniture store in Sault Ste. Marie, MI. It's your basic aromatic - whiskey/cavendish/fruity, pretty good flavor, no bite. The furniture's not bad there either.
Cream in Ginger Ale! That's the first I've heard of that. I appreciate Vernor's as the best that is available here locally, but my favorite is Blenheim Ginger Ale. The only place I can find it is at any of the Mast General Stores.Quote:

Giving the pipe thing a try again. Almost forgot I still had a bunch of the samples @BryGuySC gave me a while back. Trying the Mclleand darkest Carmel.

Last night late I smoked a bowl of a homemade English mixture in a Sunrise Canadian.

I remember not liking it too much, but it's been resting for 2+ years. Still doesn't QUITE agree with me, but much nicer!
Also, I found @Haebar 's Navy flake he sent me what feels like long ago! Going to break that out soon!
