Excellent, Thanks you all.
gospelman, i actually have a sample of "Old Gowrie" in a jar in my cupboard, I will be trying it soon. (probably tomorrow, now that you brought that up)
Stackle2, I came to realize your point earlier tonite, as I had a fire going out in the shop, and thought I'd try a bowl of "Altadis B20 Black Cavendish" as the first smoke in a Cob.
It was different, smooth, with sort of a nice smell at certain points???
And it hit me, I am so lucky to have such a variety of samples, and I am going to take my time , and enjoy each one. I dont have to rush it.
Wingrider; yep, I have 5 pipes at this moment,
A Pete, for Irish Flake
a briar for Va's
a briar for Bur/Va/Per's
A Yello-Bole for Aromatics (it cleans out niceley)
and an MMcob for ? but now that you brought that up , I'll use it for the Latakia blends,,,Thanks. I do have samples of " Spillman mixture" " No Bite Delite" " and "frog Morton across the pond " that I havent tried yet.
tiltjlp; I have read your cob stickys, twice actually , but i am glad you remind me , because I forget things, and those stickys are an excellent resource for me to go back to.
Thanks for taking the time to post them.
