The only thing missing was some Bobs Chocolate Flake! I decided to keep it smokey with this elongated Dublin made from Chocolate Morta with a Chocolate Bamboo Shank, filled with Wessex Brigade, from Pipemaker Joao Reis of Portugal. banjo

Nice pipe. Whatever happened to Bob's Chocolate Flake? I haven't seen it anywhere in many months.

Banjo, that pipe has the best chocolate finished Morta I’ve seen to date. Glad your “ keeping us smokey “, thank you.

Ron, You find it every now and again and when I do I buy it in 500g boxes. It’s Out of Stock most places but there seems to be loads available in the UK at 3 times the cost, I think the FDA involvement in tobacco has folks buying in bulk quantities and setting it in their cellar for the long term. banjo

Thanks, guys! I just picked up 2 tins from Mars Cigars. I got the tins because my last batch was bulk and it molded. I don't smoke it very often, but when I want it, I don't have a substitute that satisfies.

Score. It's in stock for cheaper than most tobaccos in the UK. I'll add it to the list.

Well, you say that you really don't taste the difference, and the chocolate in Bob's is barely there, so it's probably a toss up.

Question is to get that or the Solani agreed burley flake... Decisions. While the Solani ABF is good, I much prefer the Bob's Chocolate Flake, as it quenches my flavor-hungry palette like an iced cold beer quenches my thirst. Has that pleasant bit of Lakeland floral also I enjoy so much.
