The Arrowhead was a nice mildly aromatic smoke with considerablely different flavor so (as described by JimInks on TR), but I didn't notice the Latakia. Next up is Ted's St. Patrick in the IMP MiniMeer. Still drinking Community coffee, neat.

SG Kendal Cream Deluxe Flake in a Chacom Churchwarden, Peet's French Roast w/cream n sugar, public radio's The New Yorker Radio Hour/Radio Lab... the smoke, highly recommended.
Side note... I've been enjoying The New Yorker weekly magazine for many many years, and find it to be several cuts above the rest when it comes to high-grade professional journalism and just durn good entertainment... get ya a subscription... :-)

...one of the longest smoking blends I've been pleasured by (no, not in that way...) - now into my final 1/3rd of the bowl, SG Kendal Cream Deluxe Flake really comes into it's own wherein the flavors become still more creamy, spicy, and flavoursome, all in a more tightly cohesive way without becoming foul or harsh... I'm detecting nougat/nutmag and vanilla (tonquin?)... this one's a rotation keeper.
Best prepped when well rubbed out, air dried for an hour or two, just shy of crispy ( dry sponge), gravity fed, packed not too tightly, occasional tamp, deep round-bottom bowl.

C&D Dreams of kadath in a Chacom Churchwarden, glass of moderately diluted Martinelli's Apple juice ... there is nothing shy about this blend, but not a bully either. Proper packing and smoking technique is needed to tease out the discrete flavors that are present in abundance, otherwise overall palette profile can be more of a muddy swirl, Burley heavy. 4 Stars nonetheless.

Now smoking Rotary Superior in a 2002 IMP smooth full bend egg shaped meer with a black acrylic stem. The Hickory nut topping reminds me of Euell Gibbons commercials. M'lady is saying the room note is strong, but not as strong as it was when I opened the tin. Lots of flavors going on in this aro.
