    RS what do you think of the five brothers? I've heard several different things about it. Just wondering what your opinion is of it.

    Five Brothers is a strong straight shag cut burley with a big nic hit. Perfect for waking up in the mornings. Comes pretty much dry in the pouch which requires hardly any relights.

    As Rooster Cogburn might have said it, "Gen-u-wine double-rectified bust head."

    I think I'll have a bowl right now. (Clears the cob webs.)

    H&H VA Spice in a Lee Pipe - unfinished smooth Billiard. Very yummy. Moving on to H&H AniCake in a Dr. Grabow Carved Omega - got that one for a few bucks - I had to have a stem made for it - but it turned out beautifully.

    If my mouth can take it and time permits - may finish with Pipeworks & Wilke #400 a Latakia based tobacco that is just awesome. So full bodied with buttery notes of orientals, a hint of spice and that great smoky flavor only Latakia can bring to the table.

    Well aged PS701 in a bent briar reserved for Virgina .I had some that was a couple months old that I thought was good . But found some in the office in the back of the filing cabinet that had to be at least two years old . Very smooth and tasty .

    Coffee just does not taste right without a codger burley of some sort. This morning it was (and still is) Edgeworth Ready Rubbed in an Armellini poker. Probably Peretti's 333 up next.

    I had two bowls of PA back to back with coffee this morning. Then a bowl of half and half. Now I'm thinking MacBarens dark twist roll cake. RHB let us know what you think of the PA in the drugstore tobacco group.

    Smoking McClelland British Woods in the house, because my wife is over at her Russian girlfriends house. So, that means they are drinking vodka, and I can smoke Latakia and drink with impunity. Indoors. Yee Ha!

    Moved on to Hodge podge mutt mix. Thanks Phil. It has a nice creamy flavor in the mouth, and nice fruity notes in the nose. I detect no chemical taste at all. Good job in my opinion, keep it alive and growing.

    Nice score Vitor! Since you are using Photobucket, you can resize your pics there. They have an option where you choose what size you want to make your photos.

    Last night was some CAO Eileen's Dream.
    I'm not too sure about this one. I will have to give it a few more smokes and then if I still feel the same, I'll switch pipes to see if the flavor profile changes. So far I am not picking up much, if any, Irish Cream flavor.
