If you like OTCs, you'll like this. It and WC Slices are very good burley blends.Quote:

A half bowl of G&H Dark Plug in my smallest pipe. I survived. Surprisingly I didn't find it overly heavy taste wise, and the nicotine was manageable with caution. I now have the desire for enormous plate of eggs and bacon, however. Strong blends give me the munchies!
Almost finished smoking G&H Rich Dark Honeydew in a straight 2014 MM Pride Legend.
About to break in the Chris Morgan briar with my 1st ever bowl of Tambo...

Jim’s C Blend in a smooth medium bend straight grain 2001 Karl Erik Ekstravagant brandy with a leaf engraved silver band.
Started the day with CAO Black Velvet in my middletonian.
Evidently this blend is no longer available, crying shame.Very mellow vanilla and caramel taste and room note.
Almost as good as having cinnamon rolls for breakfast.
Kendal Kentucky in a Jeantet Prince. I like this one, medium+ strength, and in a small pipe it's very manageable. Very tasty.

I'll bet if you dig back far enough you'll find a record of Jim digging some of this in a cob. Jim's tried it in everything to prove that it's one of the best damned pipe blends up until he discovered Strang.Quote:

I imagine Jim has hit about every combo known to man. I guess I'm going to have to try the EGR blend soon. I looked up the Strang blend, but it appears very hard to come by.....
This evening I am having a bowl of Davidoff's Flake Medallions in my extra large Rossi freehand.:pipe: I had ordered some cigars from CI and I decided to add this tobacco to get free shipping. Davidoff's cigars are definitely out of my retirement budget so I decided to give their tobacco a try.:idunno: This is my second bowl of this tobacco and my first was uneventful; it was OK-not bad or great. This second bowl is much better tasting.:wave: I will have to go thru this entire tin to really make up my mind about this tobacco, but "so far so good". I am topping off this smoke with a small glass of brandy while listening to holiday music; I am beginning to relax.:fly:
It's time for my nightcap in a Jobey Torino.....
