Puffing Hamborger Veermaster. The more I smoke this stuff, the more I appreciate its excellence.

G&H Black Twist Sliced with a couple splinters of H&H Anniversary Flake sneaked right down the center of the bowl. Don't ask me how I did it, suffice it to say it wasn't easy. Black twist sounded good but I wanted to tone down the strength a bit as well as mitigate the oily flavor. Didn't really think it'd make much of a taste difference but the Anni Flake has given the bowl a nice sweetness and a faint, fruity flavor. It's pretty good. It's got pepper in spades too, but not as much as D&R Picayune; that stuff has pepper in spades, clubs, hearts and diamonds.
Oh, and this mix sure makes my coffee taste good

Maybe I should have given the stuff more of a chance

Emperor, the first fill from my tin of Hamborger Veermaster had a weak, unpleasant flavor. For some weeks I couldn't bring myself to smoke it again. I seriously considered tossing the tin. But I knew that I ought to give it another chance -- and I found it to be excellent! I don't know if it improved in the interval, or if I was just having one of those days when I first tried it.

I'll have to see if I can find the jar I had it stashed in and give it another try. It's been years and it was early on. Maybe it was my technique ...or one of those days; I have them too

This being Labor Day, I'm doing some serious puffing:
Capstan Medium
Hamborger Veermaster
Solani 763, White & Black
And now, Solani 779, English Luxury Mixture. What next...

That's the spirit!
I'm puffing the rare-for-me cigar right now but I've got a couple flakes of H&H Anni Flake laid out to dry for later.

Have you tried any of the newer Captain Black offerings, like Dark and Copper? Interested to hear what you think of them, if you've tried them. Also did you ever try the Captain Black Round? They must have discontinued it; can't find it anywhere.
