    Very nice sand blast job Rusen. Interesting stem work I like it very much. As I said once before your work is getting better and better. I envy your craftsmanship.

    Haha I say show them off because not much is going on right now with this thread. I Think it may stimulate a resurgence of interest. I just smoked some SG Best Brown the other day in a Savinelli 320. Recently ran out of Dunhill Flake and I wanted to give the SG a try, interesting take on a Virginia flake. The flakes are somewhat crude and uneven in size but not unattractive. Not as complex as the Dunhill to make a comparison. Also less sweet and has a salty profile that competes with the sweetness but I find this pleasant. I tried preparing the flakes in a different manner to help it burn a little slower and more even than the usual rubbing out method. I pulled the flake into long strips then with scissors cut against the grain to make a cube cut of the flake. This worked very well and packed easily without the clogging I get sometimes from stuffing or rubbing. Typical of SG blends some dry out time necessary due to the generally wet nature of their tobaccos. A little brighter version of Full Virginia Flake, somewhat milder but gains strength mid bowl. Worth a try IMO and makes a pleasant all day smoke. Still think Dunhill is king in the VA dept for me though. I just love that stuff.
    Cheers

    Well Seba considering I probably had my first cigarette when I was in the third grade I cannot take any moral high ground on whether you are too young to smoke lol. Welcome to SRP and enjoy what you like here. Maybe we can get you to shave with a straight razor anyway. Whats your favorite pipe? You come from a country of impressive pipe makers.

    So I just ran out of Dunhill flake and 965. You know what that means, my concious is clear and I can get more stuff hehe. Impulse B&M purchase of the day none other than Davidoff Flake Medallions. Probably the same as Navy rolls blah blah Escudo or PS Bullseye just more expensive lol.
