Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Today I made a mistake! I decided to crack open the little container I have been keeping of all the little odds and ends leftover scraps. I been just putting them in a container since I can't bring myself to just throw away those last little bits. Lots and lots of misc stuff.

Well long story short, it sucked. lol I finished the whole big bowl of it, but wow. Better luck next time??

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I'm still breaking in the Beraldi so it was a half bowl of the matured ribbon again. Love that stuff.

Re: Whats in your bowl?

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Fired up some SG Best Brown Flake.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

on the AM drive to work was some "slow triathlete vaper", which sounds like i'm running behind a guy who had beans the night before.
good thing it doesn't taste like it.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Broke out the Karl Erik today and had some Matured Ribbon. Trying to finish off this first tin. It has a bite if you smoke it right after a BBF. Oh, and the Karl Erik isn't as much fun to smoke when I first got it. It's turning out to be a gurgler.

Pease Abingdon in my resident Balkan pipe, a Sav. Tundra 320.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

MacB Navy Flake cut 40/60 with Carter Hall to work some cool cake up in the bottom of a hot burning poker and a warmish zulu. It's boring.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Bobs Choc Flake in a Stanwell Silver Spigot billiard last night.
MacB Dark Twist in a Savinelli Hercules on the drive in.
nothing like having a raw tongue to start the day.

Had a half bowl of English Luxury yesterday... In my apartment... I'm a criminal now, hurry up someone rat me out before I get into any huge capers.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

It's another bowl of matured ribbon in the Karl Erik for me today. This tin is done.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Frog Morton Across the Pond, in a Butz Choquin.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

FMOTB in a cob, last of my sample. I liked it! I read that the frog morton series doesn't age well appearently so it will probably be awhile before I make my way back to buying a tin of it to smoke.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I couldn't sleep so a late night bowl of Piccadiily burning right now.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Old Gowrie in a Ser Jacapo canadian/poker that i'm trying to smoke out the ghost (on the drive into work today).

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Didn't get to finish this bowl, so it's lined up for this afternoon.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

LBF in a Stanwell bent dublin.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Managed to get in a couple today! It was nice! Smoked some H&H AJ's VaPer earlier in a Hilson #215 bent brandy. It was very very good!

Now I just fired up a bowl of H&H Anniversary Kake. Unfortunately though, I let it sit out to dry a little longer then I had planned tonight so it got to the almost crunchy dry stage. :( I'll give it another go tomorrow and not let it get so dry! Smokin pretty hot, I think Ill set it down for a few to cool down.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

some Brown Rope by either SG or GH&Co that i was gifted a few years back. smoked in an Orlik of Old Bond Street Canadian.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Just finished a bowl of University Flake in a Grabow.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Piccadilly. I usually don't smoke in the morning before class but this is really nice, I hope it doesn't force to me class today. :hn

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Hal O' th Wynd in a Sasieni 4dot bulldog. i mistakenly thought i had HOtW open every so often when it was Old Gowrie. now that i have them open, side-by-side, there's a definite flavor difference that i'll never mistake the one for the other again. i prefer HOtW due to the sweetness of the VAs that comes through more.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I didn't like HOTW much because I thought it was a bit bland. Old Gowrie is a bit more "edgie" and complex to me and I like it better.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

really?
i'll do a real side-by-side comparison. i think OG just seems a little more dusky, dry, and straw-like. i got more sweetness out of HOtW.
i doubt it was simply from cleaning my pipes over the weekend. ;)

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

We have different tastes i guess. It would be interesting to do a blind review of these two with a couple people.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

great idea.

so good, we're gonna do it.

Sunday Picnic before bed.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I'm not sure what I want to fill my Neerup with yet. I just woke up and hadn't thought about it.

I really want to crack open a new tin but feel I have way too many open at the moment. Thinking about it now I'll go fer the last of my 2002 of McClelland No. 22 Virginia!
That was the first tobacco I ever smoked in my Neerup so I might as well finish the tin with it! :D:pi

Cheers!

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Was able to have some Owl Sharp Mr. Green's Mixture in the Savinelli last night. Not bad, but needs to be smoked slowly.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Telegraph Hill in a Sasieni prince/author thingy

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

How do you like that compared to fillmore? debating about ordering a tin of Tele Hill.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

funny, someone asked me that earlier today.

i prefer Fillmore.
to me, Fillmore is sweeter (although it can hard to find it with all that Perique in your face). they are about even on Perique strength, with Fillmore being stronger, if i remember correctly. just that Telegraph Hill seems more 1 dimensional, where Fillmore has an underlying sweetness that you find as you get use to the blend. first time smokers of fillmore can't seem to get past the power of the perique (similar how i am to heavy latakia blends, that's all i taste is the latakia). i need to stock up on more Fillmore.

you want a bowl or three's worth of Telegraph Hill - PM me your addy.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Had some Stokkebye Evening Treasure in the Mastro Beraldi this afternoon. Looking to sneak in another bowl tonight...

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Had the same thing today for lunch and then reloaded a half bowl of Butera Dark Stove. This is my first time trying it (my cigar shop has sample containers). So far, it's got quite a kick.
