Popped my last tin of Dunhills Elizabethan. Watching Brave Wilderness on YT. This guy is nuts. Lets just let a Bullet Ant sting us. Along with all kinds of crap. Enjoy

Some kinda boring GL Pease Westminster. Kinda just straight English; or what I imagine to be. There were wisps of sweet complexity but I think they were more in the room aroma when I would "accidentally" pull some of that in. I wouldn't buy this again but it's CERTAINLY not bad. Admittedly, I don't think I bought this myself, but the point still remains. Whoever sent it has my full appreciation, regardless.

Wow. I wouldn't have guessed that. Generally, Westminster is modest but flavorful. It's a very meek, nuanced blend to start with but I adore it. I would have guessed it to be right up your alley. Sounds like maybe what you have has gone over the hill? It's possible that it has just faded quickly.

A quick bowl of Nording's Labrador blend to honor the passing of my dear Grandma Liborio. Such a kind sweet lady who was a guiding force in my life as both my parents were at work so often I practically lived with her and Grandpa. A blend that is both sweet and named after her favorite dog breed, I can't think of a more fitting tobacco to dwell on her passing.

As an odd aside I always thought 'Liborio' would be a wonderful cigar line name.

Aw, damn. I'm sorry brother. That's never an easy thing to go through.
To answer your question, yes! I have tried the cob twice. It's a bit difficult to master because it's a narrow bowl (to me) and I tend to be a little less accurate during lighting. But, I found it to be a nice "tester" when just lookign for a taste instead of a full bowl. Thanks again.
