2021 MacBaren Balkan. This is a new one for me and so far it is very enjoyable. I like this a lot. This was released as a replacement for Vintage Syrian. No, it's not the same blend. A little less latakia, perhaps because Cyprian is a more potent and fresher version of latakia. Similar casing as Vintage Syrian, but a bit different. Has the trademark MacBaren tart/sweet Virginias with their signature Kentucky as a small, but necessary player. Clean, crisp finish. It's not trying to be Vintage Syrian, it's it's own thing. I highly recommend this one as a medium Balkan.

Yes indeed, one of my favourite tobaccos and ages superbly

Thought 15 years was long enough for this Union Square. Some nice crystally bits in there. Probably give it few days to wake up.

Birthday this week. Decided to crack open a tin of Vanners by Fribourg & Treyer. This particular tin was purchased mid-year 2008, making it a Bush era tin. This came from roughly the same time I lit up my first pipe, as a freshman undergrad at a Christian college in rural SC.

I didn't know who the hell I was or what the hell I was doing. Still, there's something reminiscent and calming about a historic blend made in that era, in that moment. Part of me thinks it was a simpler time, while the rest of me thinks that that's what everybody always thinks.
