Smoked a bowl of McClelland's Dominican Glory Maduro in my Kaywoodie Saxon. My roomate smoked the same in my MM Great Dane Cob. Unfortunately I was stupid enough to put the Cob in my pocket and I broke the stem :(. Working on finding another.

Re: Whats in your bowl?

Re: Whats in your bowl?

Re: Whats in your bowl?

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Sold out in about 12 hours...lol!

"Balanced, poised and sophisticated. Cyprus Latakia is layered with fine Virginia tobaccos and small leaf orientals, then pressed, sliced, and tumbled into ribbons. More savory than sweet, with classic structure, medium body, and captivation complexity. Meridian is the perfect companion for a mid-day stroll, or with the afternoon tea."

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Lol From what I can see some pipe tobaccos fly off the shelves in a ridiculous amount of time!

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Ya I think that's got more to do with the maker than the blend.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

True. I'll just have to wait until all the hype/ curiosity dies down.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Having some of my new fave GLP... Union Square.

Stonehaven :tu

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Tudor Castle and then some Early Morning..

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Tried my first bowl of Vanilla Creme Flake this morning. As expected the room note was amazing, maybe a little too sweet for me though.

I may try blending a little with some straight virginia. If I can cut down on the sweetness and retain the room note I may have a winner.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Some lite drizzeling rain coming down earlier this morning, and enjoyed a bowlful of C&D Habana Daydream:pi

Good to see you guys on board:tu

Re: Whats in your bowl?

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Spilman Mixture in a Tsuge bent brandy tonight...

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

First bowl of Union Square special thanks to yachties23 ( Chris ) for a sample... so far a damn good straight up VA...

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Isn't it a great Virginia? Smoked a bowl myself last night and just ordered 5 more tins.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Yah it is pretty good stuff. I definitely want to load my cellar full of this stuff. But I have an order of bulk coming in thats about 4 pounds of stuff, so Union Square might have to wait until tax time...lol

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

it is good stuff.


been going through a tin of Escudo from '05 on this exercise. (for some reason i wrote '07, but the date shows '05).

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Smoked a little of a blend called "Unique from a local shop" I pretty damn sure it's Lane's 1-Q either way tastes decent for an aromatic.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Has anyone compared 1Q to Butternut Burely? Are they similar at all?

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Still going through various sampe bags from various online stores. Ebony from Tobacco Barn was good. So far have not liked too much of the Pipes and Cigars stuff, tho.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

A bowl of Frog morton on the town in my new olive wood pipe.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Totally different.

Have you tried either yet?

Union Square and Laurel Heights last night. Had some trouble with the Union Sq. last night. But this is usually how it is for me when I try to smoke flakes just stuffed into my pipe. Didn't let it dry out enough and didnt load the pipe well enough. Oh well still tasted good. Laurel Heights keeps getting better and better each night. I read a good article from G.L.Pease about first impressions of tobacco ( http://pipesmagazine.com/blog/put-th...t-impressions/ ) and I've been smoking the same blend in the same pipe each time.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I've had the Butternut Burley. I really liked it. Never had 1Q.

So I got 2oz of Sugar Barrel and had a bowl of it to and from the bank today. It bit me. and it tasted like plastic and air. I'm hoping drying it out will help.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

965 this evening...

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

:dr

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Heard a lot of good things about Sugar Barrel hopefully it doesnt suck for you. As for the 1Q, it's one of the better aro's out IMMO.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I'm planning on probably using it to mix with other tobaccos, Tambolaka for instance.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Try tossing it in a Heavy Perique blend. I've done this a few times with some good results. Granted I'm not a huge burley fan. McClellands #2015 is decent for this.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I want to find more burley blends, because I feel like I would enjoy them (I know Univ. Flake is a VaBur with a slight berry topping, and I really like that, as well as Butternut Burley).

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Give Erinmore Flake a shot. It's a Va/Burley with some kind of topping. Has a floral note but is rather enjoyable. Also theres Orlik Golden Sliced. Its more of a sweeter VA with burley but it's not bad either. The only other Bur/VA blend that I have had an enjoyed was Kingfisher, but it's been rather hard to find online recently. I've got a tin of Exhausted Rooster and Burley Flake #3 still sealed in the tin I've been thinking about opening...Cumberland from G.L.Pease gets a ton of rave reviews too.

I have Erinmore, 1Q, and Orlik on hand and open if you wanna set up a trade. Unni flake is on my want to try list. Shoot me a PM if ya wanna set up a trade.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

PM incoming!

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I sampled Vanilla Royale this morning and really enjoyed it.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
