@ka9ffj -- Molto Dolce was my first aro when I took up the pipe again. Then, Maple Street and Barbados Plantation. Then @ghostsofpompeii hipped me to Sutliff bulk blends.
I've been out sick for the past few days, but today I felt well enough to enjoy a pipe. Decided to participate in Meerschaum March and packed my small Meer with GLP's Navigator. This isn't my favorite pipe, but I do like it's design.
Just recieved an order from P&C, in the order was S. Trout Stream and Bass Pond. Both are very good. The Trout Stream tastes and smells very much like Sutliff Vanilla Custard to me. The Bass Pond is hard to figure, but it is good. Definitely will not hesitate to order both blends again.
Thank you @ghostsofpompeii , it's much appreciated. I had a great birthday, even with getting sick afterwards. I blame the arcade I went to during the celebrations.
Getting a head start on the St. Patricks Day celebrations with my Petersons. Smoking C&D's Poplar Camp in my Peterson XL14. Hope everyone has a great evening!
Smoking a bit of 10 to Midnight while looking at next weeks forecast, freezing here tonight but next week is looking up, sunny days and mid fifties.
The wife's leaving for two weeks on Wednesday, so it looks like there will be many opportunities to run amok, I'm getting a little verklempt just thinking about it.
Smoking outside, looking like spring...45 degrees in the shade👍🏻 I have some Panama Jack “Melon” fired up in a Weber Tanzania Meerschaum. I have to say, this Panama Jack “Melon” does not impress like the Panama Jack “Piña Colada” I smoked the other day. It’s not bad, but I don’t discern and melon flavor, room note, nothing, just a little sweetness.
It really must be spring..I just saw the first robin of the season, and I noticed some Canadian Geese in one of our outlying city parks....one that use to be a cornfield 10-15 years ago where they always stopped to take a breather. It’s good to get outside for a smoke and relaxation to relieve some “cabin fever”😁
I did wear a sweater yesterday because the temperature only got up to 58f. No snow but spots in the yard are so saturated that if you stand in one place too long, puddles form. I may just wear t-shirts and shorts today because we are expecting a high of 64f.
I will only be smoking Peterson blends today in honor of St. Patrick's Day.
I decided to think spring and put away all my English blends and take out the Virginia and VaPer blends for the season,smoking some PS LBF in a Bjarne Squashed Tomato.
Well, I had to settle for Peterson’s St. Patrick’s Day 2018 blend this year...no 2019...my guess is because of the stupid “deeming law”. Anyway, SPD 2018 is a great tobacco. Doing my traditional SPD initial bowl in my 2019 SPD System #313. It’s almost 50 degrees today🙂
