    Which VAPER is Best?

    You might want to add G.L. Pease’s Telegraph Hill to your list. For me, the Virginias and the Perique are in perfect balance in this easy-to-handle, ribbon-cut blend. It's a subtle, delicious all-day smoke! When you’re looking for a more "stout" VaPer, I also recommend C&D Bayou Morning (bulk...

    Best Aromatic You've Ever Smoked?

    My favorite aromatic blend is G&H Ennerdale Flake! :) But I know it is a blend you either love or hate. The only sweet aromatic I like now and then is DAN’s Da Vinci.

    GLP Telegraph Hill (VaPer)

    I had a tin of Telegraph Hill last fall and enjoyed it to the last crumb (that was my first tin of GLP’s tobaccos, btw). The tin aroma and the flavour are both delicious. This could be an ideal all-day smoke but unfortunately it’s hard to come by this side of the pond.

    Let's talk Anni Kake

    In this blend I taste a slight flavor that reminds me of hot chocolate and a hint of cinnamon.

    Peterson Irish Flake

    Yes, there is definitely a very slight aroma. I’d best describe it as "lavender". One of my favorites, btw.

    Favorite VaPer?

    If I had to choose one favorite: C&B Bayou Morning Other favorite VaPers are: DTM St. Bernard, GLP Telegraph Hill, G&H Louisiana Flake, Dunhill De Luxe Navy Rolls, Peter Heinrichs Curly Block, Motzeks Der 93er (a German local blend). I’m afraid so. Which is odd, as Escudo is produced by the...

    Broken Pipe: Craig Tarler President of C&D

    These are really sad news. Just smoked a bowl of my favorite C&D blend Bayou Morning in honor of Craig Tarler. My condolences to his family and friends. Godspeed, Lars

    Some Interesting pics of the "old ladies soap" tobac place

    Very nice pics! You can almost smell the tobacco scent from them. Check out some more pics from this traveling journal (in German). You can click on some pictures to enlarge them. The Cob Flake should be the same as the 1792 Flake. SG also sell it as a plug called Cob Plug. Check it out on...

    Penzance

    I’ve smoked both of them, and I’d say they are definitely not the same blend. The Special Latakia Flake has the same Viriginia/Cigar foundation as Germains Brown Flake – plus the Latakia. When you open the tin, you will also notice bright (VA) and dark (LAT) sections of flake. The Penzance is...

    Roll & Stuff

    I checked out Jay’s "Z Method" on Youtube recently and find it very useful! After you’ve done the "Z", there is also some sort of rolling involved.
