G&H Louisiana Flake in a Grabow Royal Duke that I've had for around 30 years.
Don't know if it was the weather, the bakky or what but I haven't had a bowl this enjoyable in a long time.

Bill,

It may be that time of year because my Louisiana Flake has been lights out good the past 10-12 days.

2015 Gawith Hoggarth Louisiana Flake in a 1950s Barlng's Make Ye Olde Wood #252 Fossil (sandblast), saddle billiard.

Mainly smoke VA flakes in smooth, thick walled billiard (type) bowls but this is a sandblast that I've not smoked in a while so there's little ghosting.

The brightness is subdued but the complement of nuanced flavors is apparent. Not as sweet as in the #251 (taper smooth from the same era), but a little deeper.

Well after my daughter's 13th birthday party today and my being around a dozen screaming giggling girls about the same age, I wanted a strong drink and a tobacco with a high vitamin N content.

So I had some Royal Yacht.............and Scotch. Lots of Scotch.
