Tonights Smoke II - FOR PIPES

[DSturg369]

Five Brothers/Carter Hall - 50/50, in a MM cob.

That mustve been quite the nic hit!

I have some Penzance drying now...

[DSturg369]

Being a cigarette smoker, as well as pipes and cigars, the nic hit seemed minimal to me. Five Brothers is very dry and this was the first time I've tried it. It smoked very fast. I did a little searching and it seems that it needs to be packed pretty firm.... So I know for next time.

Stonehaven in a MM cob. Man, that's good stuff.

I understand completely. Having been a cigarette smoker for a long time (with the occasional flirt currently) I have looked for a pipe baccy that would give the same kinda nic hit but to no avail!

Have you tried Hal O' the Wynd? It even tastes like a top shelf cigarette at times, and it's got nicotine in spades.

Don't forget GLP Fillmore, nice wallop it has too!

Tonite - Reiner LGF aka Blend 71 in the screwball Nording Eriksen. Folded and stuffed, nice hour long smoke. Lightning in the sky, oh my, indoors we go!

Pipes are not comparable to cigarettes in the nic department... Even 1 or 2 bowls don´t provide the same nic "injection" as a couple cigarettes do... sometimes, after a good meal for example, immediatly after having a one hour smoke I reach for the cigs. In fact, I think I can´t really evaluate the nic content of a pipe tobacco, just it's harshness on the throat, which is not the same thing... although once I had a bowl (of SL I think) before breakfast and got a real punch in the head.

Yeah, its my very favorite. I smoke it in pipes with inch and half bowls or less so I don't get rocked too hard.

It's my morning smoke (swing shift worker here!), but I'm revisiting Prince Albert (in a cob, of course), and I have to admit that my first impression was off. This stuff isn't bad. Nice, sweet and mellow. I was planning on adding a tub of Carter Hall to my next tobacco purchase, but now, I'm not so sure...

More of this PA/Mature Virginia...just can't get enough.

Smoking some original made in, manufactured in, blended in London, England- Dunhill My Mixture 965 and yah! This is the stuff.
My local B&M was talking the Altadis mixture up of the stuff very well. When push comes to shove though, no comparison what so ever.
Delishhhhh...So delicious.

Last night on a perfect, bug-free, calm, comfortable (i.e. not sweltering) summer evening - a nice long relaxed bowl of GLP Filmore ('06) in a Bjarne freehand. Aaaaaah!
