That's a great blend too. I have some jarred up and might have to smoke it tonight. :pi

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Picked up a new pipe by Todd Harris from another board. A rusticated bent brandy. Just starting to get it broken in with some Mac Barens Scottish Mix early this week on Wednesday...

Great looking pipe!

Penzance. It's good....

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

haha Yes indeed Chip.

I've been stuck in the Wallace Flake rut. It's a great problem.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Last night: Harkness Tower in my Nording billiard. I LOVE IT. Thank you Stevieray.

I actually just got a tin of Balkan Sobranie and prefer it to Penzance by a long shot.

What are those rubber stem tip things called?

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

@ Chip, Pipe Bits, smokingpipes.c0m has them. Many people opt for surgical tubing too as it can be a bit thinner.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Yep...sometimes you can find them cheaper on fleabay as well.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Thanks

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I think MacB Scottish is a solid blend. I should stock up on it I suppose...

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

MacBaren Modern Virginia- Loose Cut.

I suppose I am just not a fan of pure virginias. The tin aroma is great like apricots or raisins. Its the pure tobacco smell and it is fantastic.

Smoking it though.............eh, just ok. It seems a bit acrid and smells like a first lit cigarette. Maybe i'll put it in the humi and come back one day.

Only one bowl today, and that was early this morning on the patio with a temp of 83* at 9:00am. Broke open a can of the new SPC Pike Place blend. What a nice tasting blend of weed:tu

Current temp at 2:41pm is 109*. Geeeeeeeeeeez:su

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

SPC Pike Place blend in the F.Baki with a tall glass of ice tea on the side:tu

Loving the Pike Place...

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

109 Mark? You won't have to carry a lighter if that keeps up, just grab a chunk of brimstone off the ground.

Finished the last of the McC Oriental 14 this morning. Amazing stuff.

On that note, are there any bulks that come close to #14?

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Hey Seth would you mind describing the flavors of this blend? Sounds interesting.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Pete, here's some reviews regarding McClellands #14 from Tobacco Review. These are reviews sorted for "Helpfulness:"

A little of Bobs Chocolate flake in a Comoys Everyman. :tu

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Squadron Leader in my Nording Erickson. Great way to end the day.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Sorry Pete, I missed your question for some reason. #14 is a solid medium strength blend, with (obviously) very prominant Oriental sourness. It's got body though which a lot of Oriental blends don't quite hit. Super easy smoke on the mouth which is welcomed as I've been getting a rough tongue from VA's lately.

My description isn't great and I apologize. I think the best way to put it is it's not trying to do too may things at once, it's solid McC quality that meets my strength/body requirements.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Thanks Seth. Been interested in orientals lately.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Give McC Bombay Extra as well as Samovar a shot. Both Excellent!

Enjoyed a bowl of The Virginia Cream driving home form work earlier. I really enjoy this as a change of pace considering I'm not much into aromatics.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

This morning, House of Calabash "For Meerschaums Only Select" in the CAO meer.

This afternoon, SPC Pikes Place in the F.Baki meer.


McC Bombay Extra is good weed. Been a number of years since I've smoked the blend. I think I will do the Samovar this evening though:pi
