Pipe spotting

Pa Kettle 1949
Plaid pouch

Cob Plug 1792

5oz of Samuel Gawith Cob Plug 1792 

I was just told this has been aged since 2004.
Look at all the sugars.
I knew it.



Nice flakes my vintage flake cutter works so well.

It has the flavour of 1792 but its just a bit milder.
Maybe the plugs have aged.
Full of flavour the plug is rock hard but easy to slice with a plug cutter and rub out.
Perfect moisture level very easy to light and burns to a light grey ash.
Produces huge amounts of smoke.
A great dry smoking very stout tobacco to say the least.
Andrea said it smelt like intense tobacco.
Lachlan my 20 year old son nearly choked on it.
Not to sure about the room note though.

New Tobacco no 73






Krumble Kake
I used my vintage flake cutter to cut some off.
And packed my small Falcon Calabash.
The Latakia is there up front then the rum flavour comes through.
A good solid tobacco big in flavour and nicotine just how i like it.
Now to turn a couple more small Falcon bowls so i can rotate them
for all this strong tobacco.
