Can't wait to dive into that Stim package, look great Neil. I have a lot of jars going right now though and should finish up a few first.

This morning I had a half bowl of DE's Gatsby Luxury Flake. Very well behaved flake as far as burn goes. The goodness of this stuff atones for that cherry mess they sell.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Hobbit Weed in the MM Legend. Thanks for sending me a sample Matt (mhailey). Very cherry aroma, especially coming off the top of the bowl and drifting up your nose. Then again, a gentle snorkle produces the flavor too!


Naaaw! Looks just fine from here Bill!

Some Dunhill Royal Yacht in the Stanwell Tawny. Nice blend:pi

GLP Cairo in this great billiard courtesy of Kevin (ksknnr). Really love this little pipe.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Scottish Blend in the Boswell poker. Hot outside looking to be 88* with full sun today. is over 10* hotter than normal for this time of year. Cranking the AC!

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Chicken and Waffles in a Peterson System
Dried it a good 8 hours, but still a little gurgle. Mildly aromatic, nothing drastic.

Eagerly anticipating GLP's next release, Philly Cheese-steak with extra hots.

I kid I kid....

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

sound sound good tho!

Some more "Chicken and Waffles" in a 1940's Belvedere pot. This is an early Nutcracker restore. It's a solid feeling pipe that sits well in the hand, but is heavy to clench. I think it would be better suited to flake. (Just by the hefty look). Given it's vintage, perhaps some Squadron Leader. I mean it does look like something a Spitfire pilot might smoke!

Neil, the Stim Pkg is great. Definitely more going on than the 10 Russians (still love 10r).I got a lot of spice flavor coming through a larger sized bowl. I'm going to keep playing around with which pipe fits it just right.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Seattle Pipe Club Mississippi River in a cob. At first I hated this one. It is growing on me slowly tho. Might need a bigger bowl.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Ten Russians in a Peterson Dublin bent apple sandblast.
Different fro Stimulus Package - a little more towards a maduro cigar taste, less Latakia.
Nice.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Mixed a little 1792 with bullseye flake in the prince. Balances out nicely.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Germain plum cake in my new Sav full bent. Interesting mixture, I think a bit more dry time for the next bowl. Burn was nice but I feel like the flavor was muted.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

It does smoke better very dry.

E. Peacehaven in a Chacom Plume.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Thanks Darren, I'll try today. I mean, burn-wise it was good for how moist it was but I think the steam masked some of that goodness.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I tend to smoke everything very, very dry, and I gotta say that when you're not dealing with steam and gurgle, everything just tastes better.

As a matter of fact, I had some Plum Cake drying for about 11 hours in a sort of dry box and it's about perfect. Dry like cigarette tobacco. I just moved it to a small mason jar :tu

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Harvest on the Hudson in my "4th July Peterson" I acquired from Bam-bam.
Muted - I had a big bowl full, but not a great deal of taste to show for it. Nice aroma though.

P Stokkeby luxury flake from RevSmoke in the poker from Neil last night.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

franken blend in an old cob. Been smoking it all day.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Marble Kake. Smoked three bowls of this while cleaning up the yard from winter's ravages. Loads well, burns well, tastes good, doesn't bite.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Sutliff Rum and Maple over top of Anniversary Kake in a Grabow big pipe. Sometimes I just love to mix.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Penzance in a little Dunhill bulldog. It needs to dry a bit - had trouble keeping it lit.
Tasty stuff to be sure! Still get that iodine feel though

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I put some tobac in a zip lock bag and put it in the fridge overnight. works well!

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

First bowl in a while, McClelland M55 Georgian Cream. About as I remembered, smells great, tastes so-so.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

just lit up a bowl of butternut burley that i have had vacuumed sealed since 2008. taste as good as i remember. wish i had someone here to share it with.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Lucky Charms

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Tried that once but it kept burning too hot.

I've taken to mixing 75% PS Bullseye Flake with 25% something else. Today the small portion was Frog's Cellar. Nice flavor and aroma without being too overpowering and I got that nice slow bullseye burn.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

maybe add some milk for the too hot burn! On second thought maybe not.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

briar fox. im liking it. nice mellow smoke.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Thomas' Blend (Gift from Rich at 4noggins) in my Luciano volcano.
Lots of smoke - great room note, not a great deal of flavor. Helping the break in of the pipe, throwing some wicked cake.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Cracked a tin of Blue Mountain a few days ago Courtesy of TheBeard. What a nice smoke.
Nice and smooth and loading/lighting was idiot-proof. Perfect right from the tin down to a nice ash. Definitely worth stocking another tin or two.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Franken baccy in a cob. A mix of old 7yr aged leaf and some new. Burns well and seems nice. Im drying most of my new stuff in the refer now.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Dunhill Navy Rolls

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Autumn evening over top of Sutiff Rum & maple over top of Anniversary kake as the bottom. Yummy. Put it in a new MM cob.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I enjoyed a pipe of trout and stream. Long time fan of the stuff but the last pipe i smoked wasn't good. Tonight redeemed itself. must of needed to dry. Im still figuring all this pipe stuff out.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Coming back to Virginias again. Gave it a try with a very tight flake when I first picked up the pipe and couldn't get it to burn well.

Back at it with McClelland No. 2010 Classic Virginia. And I'm really liking it so far.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I've recently begun the fold & stuff method with flakes and find it works very well. Might be worth trying out Flynn.

I've been working on some 2 y/o Capstan Blue as well as the Blue Mountain. Both very tasty.
Also, I just started a new job Monday and have a few tobacco shops nearby. I'll be stopping at one on the way home today since the wife and kids are out of town and will try to grab a tin of Nightcap. I've realized Dunhill has yet to disappoint me and I'm long overdue to try this famed mixture.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Some Hal O the Wynd lately breaking in a new Ian Barnes custom pipe I had made.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Dunhill Nightcap this evening. Really loving it.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Just finished that bowl and, for the first time ever with a pipe I'm feeling a bit light headed. Didn't think it would happen from a pipe considering I have smoked some strong cigars and never really felt anything.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

:D...Maybe I should send you some H&H Freight Train. Great tasting tobacco, but watch out "when she be coming around the corner...":tu

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

That's a favorite! :tu

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

With a name like freight train I can feel the headrush already!

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

You guys have me curious now too.
