I'm doing this out of order but I had the time today so I thought I'd post it now.

Puts:
Tins- Samuel Gawith's Golden Glow (new Virginia blend), Germain's Royal Jersey Perique, Wessex Campaign Dark Flake
Sample- Samuel Gawith's Golden Glow

Takes:
Tins- Wessex Burley Slice, CAO Patriot Flake, Ashton's Winding Road

I'll post all my samples later. :lol:
 
Well I am finally feeling alittle better and I was going to smoke this stuff ready or not. luckily I am at about 80% health. That cold stuff going around will take a man down for a few days. I dug to the belly of babs and pulled out the Bullseye Flake. I rubbed it out fairly well and packed on the loose side. It lit very eazy and satayed lit. I am not a huge perque fan but with the black cavendish (and I suspect a little casing too) it makes a wounderful light and sweet tasting vaper kind of blend. I seemed to enjoy it more in the second half of the bowl which is where I noticed the only change at all in the taste. It was like the volume knob got turned up one notch. Nothing drastic just a little kick. I might actually pick some of this stuff up. I did not think I would like it but I did! I would give it 3.5 stars out of 5.

OK, I got the labels I was waiting for in the mail last night so I will box everything up and get it in the mail. If I can't get to the PO tomorrow I will get it out the first thing on Saturday morning.

I smoked some Bullseye Flake Tuesday night and it was quite enjoyable. I'll post the rest of my tries later.

It's coming soon Lew!

Good to see both Jeff and Jason trying the Bullseye. It's one of my staples. I usually take a couple of coins and fold and stuff them in the pipe. It works for me. I like it as an "on the go" blend. If I'm heading out and not much time, I can load a couple of pipes in seconds.

:D Paul

Gl Pease has got a few winners there. I really am not a Pease fan in general but these are both smooth buttery and just plain good. Thanks for letting me in on this. Really enjoyed it and looking forward to the west box later on. The box will roll to Minnesota later today and will post tracking number when received.
