Thanks for the info. Might have to pick up a tin.

I finally got a brick of Semois during the P&C free shipping day. Also new on the menu is a tin of Rattray's Wallace Flake and a 2 year old tin of C&D Pirate Kake from JR's on drive back from JAWgia. The Wallace Flake and Semois are spectacular and I'm looking forward to putting some words down in review once a few more bowls are incinerated.

Order from P&C came in today including my first MM cob!

MarkinAZ · 04-03-2016, 04:42 PM

Stevieray, you'll have to let us known how that new C&D Small Batch smokes.

Seth, enjoy the new cob. Did you buy some filters for it, or are you gonna smoke it without?

I was recently down San Diego way attending a seminar, and I decided to stay over on Friday close by to do a mini herf with Adam (Adamjoshua) at Liberty Tobacco. Later before leaving, I perused their pipe tobacco area and found an aged tin of C&D Bailey's Front Porch sitting in there "git rid of" area. The cool thing about it was, the tin is from 12/2005, with the lid and bottom of the tin bulging outwards. So it had been sitting there for quite some time just fermenting. And, you can't go wrong with a $10 sticker price including tax, license, and drive it off the lot....

The blend is burley, latakia, perique, and virginia. Tin aroma is out of site

That's Pete's cob but I'm strictly no-filter in all my pipes. I'm considering trying out the savinelli's wood filters just out of curiosity though, the trick will be remembering to take it out after a smoke or two.

Pete: How do you like the Black Shag? I've been reaching for that quite a bit recently and really enjoy it.

I haven't tried it yet unfortunately. Got a new puppy on Saturday and haven't had much free time. 😂 I did open it and it smells very fruity with sweet tobacco and earth notes.

1.) I hate filters. My buddy Hektor makes these:

Less gurgle for sure. Hektor is also an all-round decent kid who can use the cash if you are after something different....

2.) I love Black Shag - but in small doses in a rotation - the burning tires aroma can be a bit much if you are hitting it every day!

I am not planning on using filters with my cob. Never really thought about using them and don't really know much about them.

CoffeeWaterBeer · 04-05-2016, 07:30 AM

@Neil, funny you post that, I just came across that link a few days ago and have the page pulled up on my phone so I could check it out when time permits. Interesting and non-traditional but I have to say I'm interested. It never hurts to have a few oddball burners in the rotation.

stevieray · 04-15-2016, 04:07 PM

Mail call...gotta strike while the iron's hot. Should be all set for a while.
