Just packed a bowl of Sutliff CK English #1. Have to say, the tin note is odd. Almost non-existent. Unusual for an English.
Well let's get it lit and see what's what.

Wow. Can't judge a book by its tin note.
Maybe halfway through this bowl.
I love Latakia when the sweetness isnt overdone. Earthy and smooth. I'm assuming the dark fruity underbelly is the Red Virginia?
I did get the threat of some bite. Haha But keep in mind it went from fresh tin straight to pipe after a light rub AND I've been pushing hard trying to get to know it.
Looking forward to smoking my way through this tin. I know it's going to have a total different taste once it's been open for a week or so.

Opened the jar of C&D Corn Cob Pipe and a Button Nose and found there was only enough for about 1/4 of a bowl. SO, I had to pop a new tin to fill the pipe. I am smoking it in the Peterson Iceberg Collection Starboard pipe with a warm glass of Eggnog with Evan WIlliams 100 proof Whiskey infused. YUM!

Evenin' Gents, smoking Condor long cut in a clay and drinking a cup of tea. I've extended my Condor moment throughout the day and I don't plan on stopping until this pouch is finished. Happy Puffin'...! GAWD! You've made that tobacco look so delicious! I've actually never tried the long cut, but I have a few remaining Irish plugs that I've been hoarding. You almost made me break one out. ... Must ... resist ... BTW, let me also say that lurv everything about that photo. Lol... Thank you! Condor is fantastic if you like that type of tobacco. You should stop hoardin' and start smokin'! Why deny yourself? This whole cellaring business is highly overrated. Your welcome. Lol
