Thread: Pipe of the Day

There are several, McClellands has two, Dominican Glory and Dominican Glory Maduro. C&D Billy Budd, which I smoke a bit of in the Fall and Winter has maduro leaf as does a Hearth and Home blend called Stogie. I've not sampled the McClelland blends but Billy Budd is quite good (although the cigar leaf is generally drowned out by HEAVY latakia content). Stogie is good but rather mild, there's really not much there, there. Oddly the most cigarish pipe tobacco I've ever smoked has no cigar leaf in it at all. It's my all time favorite tobacco C&D Old Joe Krantz. It's a wonderful mix of two Burleys, Virginia and lots of Perique. The result if a wonderfully cigary, borderline harsh but ever so tasty smoke that, as far as I'm concerned, has NO EQUAL in the pipe smoking world (in fact I think I'll smoke some later today.)

Stanwell with Paul's Burley Light. Mild, dense smoke. Giving the latakia a rest.

Couldn't agree more. OJK is my evening smoke 90% of the time. Had it yesterday while driving across state to pick up a new 1911 and today during the after range cleaning. I'll post pictures a little later.

I was gonna add, ya had me up till the Perique unfortunately. I can't take much Perique as it gets kinda throaty on me in a not good way.However, between you and Spacemonkeyjon I now have more of and interest in Burly blends +1 on that.

I am currently sitting in my back garden with the Orlik filled with presbyterian. Don't smoke it often, but enjoy it when I do.
