tried pipesandcigars... seemed like 90% of what they sell is out of stock or backordered...

also, any suggestions on any mostly burley blends?

Solani Aged Burley has good reviews.

the smoking pipes variety has good reviews as well.

Saw that about the solari and found a place that sells it that I think is reliable, maybe? They also have the bill bailey's birthday blend so I'm gonna pull the trigger... it can be a pain in the butt to me, but a tobacco pipe is kinda nice during this heat wave...

The old guys stuff might be a good place to start. Carter Hall, Sir Walter Raleigh and Granger are good places to start. They all have a light casing, but the tobacco flavor comes through and they don't ghost a pipe. As with all burleys, don't puff on them, smoke them slowly or else you will get serious tongue bite.

Nice to be back Tony. Had a pacemaker implant. That's like getting your toenails clipped these days. Sometimes I feel like I am on the Starship Enterprise being treated by "Bones."

I love H & H, but it is far too strong for me. Wish it wasn't. I do like Latakias and Vapers, with an occasional light aromatic. Scotty's Butternut Burley usually. Can't stand anything with a cherry casing. Turns me off.

I do it like the Indians do it on the Old Western. Roll it up in a ball l, and stuff it in ma pipe.

Mine was a little moist. I let it sit out for a bit.

I am perplexed by Latakia. So many different varieties. Enjoying the Journey
