Special Brown and Best Brown flake are the new in things for me Full Virginia Flake is good too but the others with a few year on them are perfect, wish I had 10 pounds of the stuff :-)

It's been a spell since I last stepped foot into the Asylum. I ran into Markem who mentioned that they finally cleared and sanitized my old room for mold and slapped a fresh coat of paint on the walls and placed a new wax ring underneath the toilet so there's no leakage, and that our pharmacy would have reasonable hours to pick-up meds. That made me happy!

So, its good to be back in my room that has a new 70" LED with surround sound. Watching TV while smoking a pipe or cigar:-)

From yesterday morning. Smoking a bowl of GLP Gaslight in the Castello KKK56 with a cup of black tea on the side.

I had 2 of Peterson’s EMP and 2 of Balkan Supreme. About to head out for another bowl, perhaps Mac Baren’s Latakia Rolls, Limited Edition, 2020.
[Reply]

Arango' Balkan Supreme is good. Are you enjoying the Balkans and English blends? With the exception of the above GLP Gaslight, I usually have to wait for the (hopefully) cooler mornings here in Sun City West, but Winter temperatures are just around the corner...
[Reply]

Balkan and Latakia is about all that I smoke. I have some Virginians, but they have a sweetness that I am not fond of.

CupOJoes has great prices on Arango at the moment. Just snagged 4oz but will probably go back for a pound.

Decided to go with Squadron Leader for my 2 evening bowls.

Starting the day with some Special Brown Flake in a Sven 309 large pot. The hint of baked brown sugar sweetness hits the spot.

Just got this years version of C&D Carolina Red Flake. For me its very enjoyable with Black coffee.
[Reply]

Big fan of the past years, was glad i grabbed a few tins of this year's loving it and now can rotate out some of the older stuff.


Wish posting pics on here was less of a pain in the ass :-)

2003 Haddo's Delight. Thanks to Adam. Great VaPer, I can taste raisins.
[Reply]

Still think i have more of that was that the old stuff?


Started the day with a couple bowls of 2022 C& D Carolina Red Flake. I might have to do a vertical with some of the previous yrs for fun, those 2018 tins are bulging to where they look like they’re going to pop.
[Reply]

That claw is cool!
[Reply]

Smoking some Amphora full in an Eltang. I enjoy many MacBaren blends, but haven’t tried this one yet. Kind of forgot about it. My pouches were bought not long after the US reintroduction and sat in a box. Tasty, uncomplicated VaBur blend that won’t offend anyone. Topping is mild and adds a little sweet ‘fruit’.
