I take this as a compliment haven't been able to enjoy any of your flakes yet though...... Have been on a tear seeding and watering a new lawn
What's in your bowl today
- Thread starter La Chupacabra
- Start date
Following up my last bowl with some Peterson Nutty Cut in a Dr. Grabow Full Bent. Tin note isn't as profound as the Connoisseur's Choice. Very nice hints of Nuts and rum. When I opened up this tin it was like at one time it was wet and leaked around the Tin edge. For a lack of a better way to describe it. Again not knowing the age on the tobacco, it seems that it was at one time a lot more moist then it is now. It is not dried out by no means but not so wet that makes me feel it needs to dry before smoking it. Pre draw was some hints of nut and Virginia tobaccos. Once lit I got the sense of a light Aromatic nut and rum but is predominately Virginia in taste and on Retro has some slight hints of rum. Light and Buttery all together smooth smoking tobacco.

I think I'm going to stop experimenting and just stick with non aromatic VA blends.

Some aged Penzance in my recently mudded drac. Here's hoping it holds...
What kind of ash did you use to make the mud? I was thinking to done the same with my Drac.

Some 20-30 yr oldish macbaren golden blend and it's tasty, has a nice fig pouch aroma burns easily and first time I don't remember a macbaren biting

White cigar ash. This was the crack right above the draft hole:What kind of ash did you use to make the mud? I was thinking to done the same with my Drac.

Unfortunately mine appears to have been drilled at a steeper than ideal angle. No other signs of a burn out. Just a crack straight through. I mudded the area above the draft and it appears to have held up really well. I didn't add the maple syrup I sometimes do, but I think that the sugars in the 'zance helped it as well. I don't usually wait this long to smoke a newly mudded pipe, it just kinda happened that way. So far so good...
