[QUOTE="Blackhorse, post: 195030, member: 1365"] StormFront is one of the greatest blends out there (pure luck on JP's part...lol). There are a number of aspects that make it so...flavor, ease of use, availability...all important. But it kind of represents a class of blends that I call 'quick fire' blends. Even if you pack it firmly, which you shouldn't, it wants to take off and burn rapidly in the first half of the bowl. Tame this by prudent puffing AND by keeping a light tamp on it during this time. Halfway down it then settles in, and those initial sweet Burley flavors shift to deeper tones...the clouds part, beams of sunlight shine through, angels sing...you know the drill. I didn't know you had been gifted with a tall cob. That specific pipe is a rite of passage item. Smoking those Burleys in that design will change your life. Men will fear you. Women will want you. But when you wake up, the cob will be there to console you. [/QUOTE]
