Just finishing Dunhill EMP in an MM bent Diplomat. Next up Drucquer Levant that I want to try in a small bowl, MM Morgan with standard unfiltered stem, I toss the nose warmer stems!
Well, the experiment worked: 1.75 oz (one tin) of Barbados Plantation mixed with about 1.5 oz of H&H Egg Nog is the ne plus ultra of rum flavored tobacco. The rum and spices in the Egg Nog really make the whole mixture pop. A much superior spiced rum taste compared to Sutliff bulk Spiced Rum. And even SWMBO commented, "Not horrible." High praise indeed from the Great and Powerful One.
Again, thanks to @pwkarch for having the courage to try a tobacco called Egg Nog.
Was gifted a sample of Cornell and Diehl Berries and Creme from a buddy here at TPL. Decided to give it a try in a Savinelli Estella Nonpareil 9904. It gives off a pleasant room note, nothing overpowering, just nice. This is a GREAT blend for aromatic lovers! I also cannot stress how mild it is. The blend gives off a crackling sound reminding me of kindling burning in a fireplace.?. Again, VERY mild without even a hint of tongue bite, even after I "pushed" it a little. I will say the berry flavor was not prevalent, but hints could be detected when expelling through the nostrils. I've already put it on my to-get list...
Enjoyed a bowl of Ennerdale Flake in my Country Gentleman cob to end a quiet but fun birthday. Spent the day with family, and ended it with my favorite hobby.
I like the mild tobaccos on occasion. A nice no fussing, cool bring and pleasant taste and aroma especially when relaxing outside. Thanks for the review @KA9FFJ
An amazing 62 degrees. Enjoying a bowl of Barbados Plantation mixed with H&H Egg Nog. Because I don’t want to label a jar “Barbados Egg Nog,” I’m calling the mixture Navy Grog, as Spiced Rum sounded too ordinary, and this mixture is way far from ordinary.
Vanilla Custard, and the last of VBC. The Egg Nog and BP sounds like a great mixture @motie2. But of course I have neither one in stock. Obviously have tried BP many times, not sure about Egg Nog.
I’m currently smoking a bowl of Mac Baren Navy Flake in my MM Country Gentleman. This such a classic blend. Can’t believe I’m just now trying it. Delicious Burley and Virginia flake. Stays lit very well.

Forecasters predicting 51 for tomorrow. Go figure.

Sounds a lot like Cornell & Diehl Berry Good No. 210, but without the burley.
Well, happy belated birthday, amigo!
Enjoyed a quiet 77 Birthday with my family on March 7. Glad to hear you had a similar day!
After some first of th year yard and garden work, I'm enjoying some Frankenblend in a Mr. Brog Maestro #81.
What a day!...
.....and you cannot go wrong with either Vanilla Custard or VBC.
Which one do you find to be “more vanilla-y?”
This morning, a bowl of Russ Ouellette’s Magnum Opus on the rear deck.
