C&D Founding Fathers. Wife said that it smelled awful. I haven't decided yet if I like it. It is full flavored for sure. In a Maddis blasted apple with iced tea on the side. Ron, as I’ve not tried this blend, what was it that your wife didn’t like? Perhaps too much Lakatia or...? She doesn't mind Latakia. I believe it smelled like a cigar. It was the only C&D blend that sounded like something that I would like. I really don't care for it much.

Stanwell fruit and vanilla. Cucumber sandwich and a cup of tea. I am liking the tobacco. It reminds me of Georgian Creme. Better quality! Definitely going in my "yes" book. I hope everyone is having a great day. Be it at work or relaxing on the porch. And if you are lucky enough "the man cave".

However almost half way through the bowl the profile changed. There is a definite taste of rum. Still very nice very pleasant 👌.

A little late posting this. Spent half the day at my second fortress of solitude aka the golf course with a pipe in my mouth. Smoking a bowl of Grousemoor while chasing a little white ball: doesn’t get any better than this.

Had a little more of my flake mélange and some Haunted Bookshop in a Rossi 1/4 bent sandblasted billiard and MM Great Dane Spindle, respectively. Gonna load the Rossi with some HH Navy Flake (dated Sept 2017) and give that a try. Haven't smoked this one yet, great tin note.

By personal order of the prime minister, the fine for what you see in the photo must go from 300 to 500 euros (means 604 $) for "reheating the economy", as he said yesterday publicly. So according to his mind he expects from people like me (who pays a bunch of many other taxes) to strengthen the local economy and not (for example) by bringing investments in the country to make new jobs! I am smoking Planta Danish Black Vanilla Mixture outside i the cold with 38 'F, Long live the Resistance!
