Went with McConnell's Scottish Cake again this morning in my Mastro de Paja, had some Boswell's Dan's Blend in my Boswell pipe, and I'll probably have some Autumn Evening tonight in my meer, but that could always change...

Re: Whats in your bowl?

Squadron Leader. Always seem to put my pipes away in the summer and start up again in the fall. Working my way through a bunch of blends RH Newfie bombed me with and about ready to dive into a tin of Dunhill London Mixture another brother hit me with recently :)

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Half a bowl of McConnell's Scottish Cake in my Mastro de Paja, still breaking it in.

Followed that up with a bowl of Dan's Blend in my Boswell. Always good.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

McClellands Grand Oriental Series
Smyrna #1
My first TRUE Oriental, Very light, tried it in a pipe i have used for everything in the past so after my oriental pipe gets worked it, I bet it will work like a charm!

Fallowed that up with McClellands Oriental #14 for the first bowl in my new Jirsa. Wow, Amazing stuff! I'm afraid if I try a Virginia or a Va.Per OR AN English I'm screwed into buying 3 more pipes haha, DAMN i love it though

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

had some Marlin Flake yesterday and it tasted kinda flat, disappointing for a normally solid blend

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Smoked a few bowls of Virginia Spice from Pipes & Cigars. Very interesting VA-Per blend, with all the different Virginias, the perique and the touch of cigar leaf. I found it very tasty!
I may order some more when my 2oz sample is gone!

What type of blend is that?

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Here's the background on GLP Robusto from the GLP web page:

http://www.glpease.com/Tobacco/Blend...es/Robusto.gif
"For years, I've been intrigued by the idea of cigar leaf blends, but with one notable exception, nothing has really hit the mark for me, and the one that did, the celebrated Sobranie Virginia #10, has long been out of production. In mid-2000, I began flirting with different ideas, experimenting with different leaf, concocting prototypes, and quickly tiring of them, until, finally, I was shown samples of some exquisite maduro wrapper leaf that stimulated a new interest in finding my perfect cigar leaf blend. After months' worth of experimental recipes, I zeroed in on the blend I'd been searching for, and Robusto was finally born.


The cigar leaf would make an overly bold statement if blended with a heavy hand, but in just the right amounts, it provides an alluring spice, a suggestion of the richness of a great cigar, and a creamy texture to the smoke. Cyprian Latakia rounds out the flavors, and smoothes the edges. Ripe, red Virginias provides a modest sweetness while giving the blend structure. Oriental tobaccos fill in the gaps, and make Robusto a complex, full flavored and spicy mixture that is still gentle on the tongue. It's perfect with the afternoon coffee, as a delicious finish to a wonderful meal, or as a stout companion throughout the day.
And, it ages beautifully!


Robusto was introduced in November, 2002"

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

had some Bombay Court in my new Altinok meerschaum earlier

been waiting 6 weeks since I ordered it, but it has finally arrived

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Enjoyed bowls of McConnell Scottish Cake and Boswell's Dan's Blend

I seem to always smoke those the same day. Works for me.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

had my first bowl of CC 2008

it was good, but I need to let it dry a bit before next time, it was fussy and I gave up half way through

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

yesterday was...
CD Bayou Morning Flake - after 2 months of being open, the flavors have finally arrived.
Germaine's Royal Jersey perique - jury is still out on this one, other than this would be a tobacco to use if you wanted to cake up a Va/Per pipe.
Old Gowrie (from '01) - very flavorful, but this older production tends to bite a lot more than newer stuff. very tangy, almost annoyingly so.

this morning was...
McConnells Folded Flake - a very nice light burley. another tobacco that would cake up a pipe quick, it's pretty sticky and the flake falls apart in a near shag cut.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Had a bowl of McConnell's Scottish Cake earlier, and have a bowl of McClelland's Blackwoods Flake sitting out right now for after dinner. Good smoking day.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

C&D Morleys Best...............great English/American hybrid. Good with a little added VAPER also.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

awhile back before dinner some Margate in my newely designated English pipe... and now, some Fillmore, ALOT different for a Va.per than the Escudo... but I do enjoy it....Burning a bit hot but was a tad moist, An odd almost... Acrylic Plasticy sweetness if that makes sense haha...Cypress..... VERY smooth nose exhale... leaves a little tingling flavor profile, can't quite pin point what though...

alright i really gotta stop typing as things pop in my head ha, Cheers and good smoking-(edit) WOW i'm getting some Caramel.. dark bitter chocolate?

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Boswells Northwoods... Not sure if I enjoy it that much, Doesnt shed a tear to Margate!

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Escudo!

Damnit.. I need a Va.per pipe next :banger


Off topic but is there a certain pipe profile that will suit vapers more then others? so far im thinking my Blowfish pipe for English was an odd match, but no backing out now
