I'm smoking a 2023 mud-cured leaf retrieved from beneath one of my Little Yellow plants this morning. After knocking off the dried dirt, bits of grass clippings and any other crud, I shredded a portion, and packed it into a Stanwell Lovat (Vario) pipe to sample it.

It lights and burns well. I find it to be enjoyable, with a medium nicotine load. It still has a bit of an unfinished taste, but is nicer than most of the commercial pipe blends that I've suffered through over the past few years.

Little Yellow (a dark air-cured variety), when properly cured, will cook into a truly lovely Cavendish.

Found a couple jars of tobacco I hid from myself a couple months ago and one is a mixture of the last bit of C&D Latakia I had, with the last of a pouch of Sir Walter Raleigh Aromatic and some Sutliff 515rc-1. Now that it's had time to meld in the jar the Latakia has taken over but the SWRA is still noticeable. Being a Latakia fiend, I'm ok with it but it's mostly got me excited for the WLT Latakia that will be here tomorrow. I hope all of you are getting the same great weather I am today

Shredded some Latakia so it's time to try out a quick mix in a Rossi 8320EX after a little dinner. This stuff smells amazing, much better than both brands of blending Latakia I've purchased in the past

Needs a couple more grams of Latakia but it's a nice morning smoke. After a couple weeks in a jar and a handful of smokes I'll see what adjustments need to be made and might add it to the cased tobacco recipes thread

Virginia Krumovgrad, a straight Virginia blendbase with Bright, Red, and lemon, and 1/3 Krumovgrad, in a CAO bent brandy meerschaum. I'm zeroing in on a blend I'd like to cellar.

Good morning Ladies & Gentlemen, my summer vacations are over and i returned in Athens. I will post some photos from these days, feel nice to be back with you!

Good evening fellow pipe smokers!

I know that those who live near the ocean are used to much bigger waves, but this does not happen to us. Anyway, it was a lot of fun (you will see what i mean in the next post) for me that day.

Greek Souvlaki night

some things are missing (extra potatoes, sauce, mustard) but you get the idea of what's a dinner like here.

Ladies & Gentlemen, hello from Greece.

Ladies & Gentlemen, hello from Greece.

The island picture brings back holiday memories for me.
My family was always in greece for holidays to the point where it feels wrong and false to think about other countries to do holiday in

It had always a warm and ancient character when you lay on the beach and wounder how many history lies around you and the food was always good too.

Getting closer to (one of) my own taste/preferences with this one but it's a bit of a cheat blend since the Izmir was purchased from one of the online shops back when I grabbed some blending ingredients to try my hand at making something of my own. The cavendish was made with flue cured lemon Virginia and canning jars in an instant pot
