Hello My names Dave
I'm from the UK. I have been smoking pipes from about 23-24 years old. Now 30. I have a nice little pipe collection. I have smoked off the shelf tobaccos from corner shops etc, smoked English blends, Aromatics, VB flakes, American blends, and rope tobacco ( only real men need apply, I will leave that...). Probably some I forgot. I seem to have settled on Aromatics, usually Vanilla. My current favorite is Rattrays High Society. I am currently starting to experiment with flakes some more. Currently smoking Peterson University flake.
I received a free sample of HU tobacco United Passion Flanagan flake when I brought a second hand Stanwell pipe ( fully restored ). To this day it was one of the most flavorsome smoke I have ever had. But the nicotine strength was to high. Flanagan is described as " Ethereal Orient grades from the best growing regions of Bulgaria and strong dark fired Kentucky tobaccos characterise the Flanagan flake. Sweet Zambia Virginia, a touch of Perique and hand-stripped Virginia's from India round out this powerful and superbly blend. A full-bodied, but elegant flake for friends of spicy and natural tobaccos. "
The Flanagan flake is the reason why I am moving to flake tobacco and straight tobaccos with no casing or topping.
So I am going to try a English blend sampler pack after the festive season.
I will stop wittering on!
