Earlier today. I had about a 1/2 bowl each left of the SPC Potlatch and GLP Regents Flake. So a pinch of flake, a pinch of Potlatch. Repeat. Total of 6 layers. Should have been smoking it this way from the start. Was pretty good. So now that I’m done. Would I get more? Maybe way in the future, I will get more Regent Flake. Discovered that I don’t find Potlatch as special as I had thought when I had first opened this tin almost 2 years ago. And already cellared an 8oz tin. May be selling or trading that one off. Sunday. I’m going to smoke something I really want. Not sure what, but something I know I will enjoy. Monday it will be on to the next 2 open jars, that I will work my way through. Not sure what they will be yet! Glad you'll get to smoke something you actually want to smoke! |

Smoked a bowl of Three Friars in a MM great Dane Spindle, and now Haunted Bookshop in the same pipe. This will be tonight's Grand Finale.

Thanks Urb.
I just have SO many open tins.
I refuse to open anything new, until I clear most of these out.
Sadly like most newbies when I began. I would try something and think it was awesome. Then buy more tins.
Then I would try something else. And find out, I didn’t thunk that other was so special.
Down to about 25, not counting the specials that I am hanging on to. 5100 for example.
I just counted. I have 49 blends in the cellar, that I have never tried!

Likewise. But I have been reducing open containers/moving stuff in rotation to 4 oz. jars. I've also been focusing on blends to stock up on and put in the cellar. That doesn't mean I'm not interested in trying something new. I also have a fair amount of single tins unopened that I've stashed away. I'm hoping they will become treats as I rediscover them.

Yeah, there's something to be said for having one's own little tobacco store to "shop" in, where most everything is "pre-aged." |

Good Sunday morning. Up a little early and decided to take a page from Emily’s playbook by toasting the sunrise. Erinmore and a large coffee to keep me company. Have a great day everyone!

Smoking a mix of Sutliff's Eastfarthing and Amphora's English, with a dash of cigar leaf. This is all I've smoked for the last few days. Just a lucky break I'm sure, but these tobaccos came together, and became something that reminds me of all those little frogs that are a part of tobacco history now...I know I'll never come up with anything that good ,but I'll really miss this when it's gone.

Had some 10-year old Sutliff Maple Street in a MM Diplomat. Did really care for the Maple Street. Got some maple initially, and then just a biting sensation thereafter.

Butternut burley followed by Shortcut to Mushrooms both in a small Rhodesian (my favorite pipe)...next up is some G&H Bob's Chocolate Flake in a stained CG cob.   "there's something to be said for having one's own little tobacco store to "shop" in, where most everything is "pre-aged"So true...you get to see what aged tobacco tastes like now. |

Alternating between Haunted Bookshop and GLP Cumberland all day today. Today was the last week of the winter trap shooting league. A few of us got together to have a few beers and catch up on things. Someone brought venison stew in a crock pot, another brought sauerkraut and sausage. Nice to spend time with them.

Finishing this bowl of Haunted Bookshop that I've been working on/off for the last couple hours. Time to move on to something else.
