Good baccy and nice pipe, it’s a shame Joe isn’t carving anymore (at least I don’t think he is). I don’t think Balkovec is either Thank you. The DFC is becoming my go-to pipe smoke. This is the first and only pipe I ever had by Joe Case. I love it. In fact, if I remember right, I got it from a site recommended on here where they refurbished pipes and then sold them for charity. I’ve enjoyed it as well, have a jar going and 5 tins in the “cellar”. Nice blend |

Another bowl of Dark Fired Kentucky. I picked up some 1Q this week after many months away from it, and it bored me. I gave it all to Willie, who is smoking a pipe now too. It had no real taste and a room note that somehow reminds me of one of my wife’s scented candles. I think after supper, I’ll probably have a bowl of 3 Noggins in something. Maybe in the Old Morris straight stemmed freehand.

Displaced the black raspberry something something you were bingeing on for a while there. 71st Street and Black Raspberry both from Wilke. I'm going to try some of their other blends soon. Probably Crystal Palace and maybe High Hat and/or #191. |

Wilke aros are top shelf, and their English is great too. John has something for everyone and some of his blend recipes are well over a hundred years old. |

Got an email from them a little while ago saying they have latakia to blend with, now, so they'll be filling some backorders. Including mine. |

Earlier this evening, while hanging out with the family and playing cards, I smoked Mac Baren Navy Flake in my no-name orange sandblast basket Billiard, then switched to C & D Vixen. Will move on to something else shortly.

A mild aro mix of Milan tobaccos,from the spill/drying tray. The pipe is a GBD New Standard straight bulldog. The house is quiet, and the coffee is fresh and hot...life is good!

Probably Crystal Palace and maybe High Hat and/or #191. Yes I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts about the High Hat and 191 too. The 191 intrigues me as it’s two main components are honey and vanilla combined with some Kentucky Burley. As I’m confident you’re mainly an aro smoker (based on your past posts), I’d appreciate your expert opinion as this blend is on my Wish List. As for the High Hat, I’ve heard everything from “being the best American produced English/Balkan blend” to being a raisiny, plumy, sweet everyday smoke. After that, what’s not to love? |

IMO, coming from you, that’s an excellent endorsement! More importantly, it confirms my previous statement. 👍 |

About 30%. I haven’t been able to order what I need to make up a blend since I moved to WA, but I’ll probably start experimenting with a new blend one of these days. |

I believe that they are out of business. There is a recipe floating around the forum. Mine is from 2016, and I am almost out. |
