Flake will expand more than a cut tobacco will. You will need to allow for that. I like flake both ways but if you fold it it is often an all day smoke. It burns slow, tastes milder IMO and you have to have lots of time to enjoy it. Rubbing it out will give a fuller flavor but it will also burn hotter so be aware of that change too.
Oh, I almost forgot I just had a bowl of Escudo. It has already been a very long week and I still have much work to do tonight but I am in a place where I can smoke later too so I will most likely end this day/morning with a Partagas which also has a little spice. Hopefully they will complement each other.
i thought it was okay, i only got a little bite out of it and i really enjoyed the aftertaste. i need to try it a couple more times to really see what i think of it though.
Peter Stokkebye English Luxury while doing some yard work, i think i like this better than the davidoff green but i still havent found an english blend that i just love.

I've been enjoying this, too, but have to say I like the McClelland Dark English better. the PS EL, however, will ship along with my CCOM order. I've yet to try the Proper English, but will be, as income returns to the household.
My own blend with some tobaccos I got from my pipe shop. Basically it started a half and half black cavendish and straight burley, then I added a few pinches of natural cavendish. I'm really diggin it lol.

Interesting, isn't it. I'm eyeballing shelf space and perusing the opportunities over at P&C. Got lots of Mason jars.

im taking this over to my pipe shop and blending it there for a bulk jar. It's exactly what I like, and so weird that smoking any of them by themselves doesn't give this flavor to me, but combining them all does.
I don't smoke cigars, but I'm finding my habit to be similar. I have now tried probably 30+ blends and I find more and more lately that I end up disappointed. There are 3 or 4 that I enjoy so much more than everything else I've tried that smoking anything else ends up feeling like a missed opportunity. That said, my "to try" list is still about 20 long. lol. However, it's now mostly variations on my 3 or 4 favorites, rather than a variety.
Had a bowl of walts ( pilgrimtex) English and now onto a bowl of his original. Enjoyed both but I think I may have another bowl of English befit the night is done.
