    2019 Brunello Flake. It's got a bit of the graham cracker-esque essence on the nose that Newminster 400 has.

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    Popped a tin of 2019 Robert McConnell Paddington. I remember this being touted as a Royal Yacht clone back a few years when the Dunhill blends disappeared. It's is much milder in every sense. The smoke has a very soft mouthfeel and I barely get any topping flavor. Nic shows up late in the bowl...

    ***What Are You Smoking, April 2024?***

    smoking some OGS from 2010. This has changed a lot from the bright citrusy thing it was when it was fresh. Aside from normal darkening from the age, it is a richer smoke with hints of fig it didn't used to have.

    Almost Threw This Away

    get yourself a 30x loupe. you''ll be able to see if it is fuzzy or just crusty looking with some magnification

    Irish Flake Match from Bulks!

    I'd give C&D's bulk burleys like dark burly or burley ribbon cut a try. I'd think either would give your blend the bump in strength you seek...

    Tobacco Discoveries

    You won't know 'till you try 'em. It doesn't cost much to do an exploratory sampling of bulks from a site like Smoking Pipes. Prices are reasonable and there are many to choose from. I'd suggest putting in an order for a bunch of small samples of bulk blends that sound good from their...
