I've tried 2 of the DE blends now and love them both. Meat Pie is a good straightforward English blend.
The rest of them are aromatics, so I'll probably just stick with these two from DE.
Check out my Youtube channel, Razorback Piper Guy if you like that sort of thing.

Just got back from the Knoxville Pipe Club's monthly meeting. I smoked a bowl of Penzance in a McCranie bulldog. Other members were smoking the new Bengal Slices and liked it.

Good description. Gatsby flake blindsided me. I love the stuff and the tin went by too fast.

CI has DE tins for $5.99 right now. Be a good time to stock up.
I think I'll order a couple of Meat Pie and a couple more Gatsby flakes too.

And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.

I don't have many Virginia Flakes under my belt, but I really like the Gatsby Flake.
