This morning I have a few flakes of some C&D “Sun Bear-Mountain Flower” rubbed out, and just waiting a bit for some dry time. The flakes were not overly moist, but for me, they still need a few minutes of air. They are going into this big Kirsten I acquired from a fellow member a while back. Thanks for the great deal @opipeman, I love this monster👍🏻
@Londy3 How did that C&D “Espresso” smoke? I saw that pile of tobacco in the picture and though damn, that’s some wet tobacco……now I know why. I don’t understand how that sopping wet stuff can burn so well right from the bag without any dry time (for me at least).
@RockyMountainBriar I did let it dry out a bit. To me, from the bag, it smells like chocolate cake! Then i wanted some cake. Anyhow, it lights up well, taste decent but not so much of espresso more like CAKE. 😆😉😂
@Londy3; You cook/bake, paint, play music, and take beautiful photos, shoot with proficiency. Don't you ever do anything half-assed like the rest of us mere mortals?
@Londy3 Same here, no coffee/espresso taste to me either, but tasty none the less, and burns very well considering its moisture. Smoking some now in my little all-briar handmade nosewarmer and drinking some hot coffee made with my new Vietnamese phin (filter).
@Londy3 My guess is that they use Tia Maria or some other coffee liqueur as topping. I’ve watched the C&D tour on the YouTube and they have shelves of liquor/liqueurs for topping and/or casing.
I opened a tin of GLP Westminster today and now that all the chores are done I'm enjoying a bowl of it in a bent MM Apple Diplomat along with a cup of coffee.
Just back from a 4 day golf trip. After some catch up work around the house, I'm enjoying some Creme Brulee in a repaired, reworked and restemmed Tom Spano...

I must have been into the Irish pretty deep that day. Glad you like it, Brother.
Give a light quick rubbing on your Molina with a paper towel and you might be surprised how it buffs a shine back into it...🙂
Sure thing! I'll give it a try. However, I don't mind the flat blue.

Wonder why they call it espresso 🤔
My guess is that they use Tia Maria or some other coffee liqueur as topping. I’ve watched the C&D tour on the YouTube and they have shelves of liquor/liqueurs for topping and/or casing.

Booooo, that sucks. Having a pain free jaw is worth it though🙂.
