    Amos Umwhat:
    Just ordered some Magnum Opus, and a new Stanwell Silkebrun pipe. I'll let y'all know how it works out.
    The package came Saturday, while I was at work. Packed the new pipe with the Magnum Opus that night, and smoked it Monday morning. The rest of the M.O. went into a mason jar. It was good, which says a lot considering just opened and brand new pipe. Very much my kind of a smoke, it bit a little hard. I expect that will resolve with a little time, both for the tobacco and the pipe. I'll try some of the M.O. in one of my English pipes soon, I expect I'll get a better experience. I love the pipe. Seems like good quality, and I like the #86 shape from Stanwell. I've smoked a couple other bowls through it, McClelland Oriental # 14 and some Dark English and it's coming along nicely.

    Smoking a lot of Arango Balkan Supreme. Reminds me of Stokkebye's, when it was new, which I have recently smoked some aged of. Wonder if it is the same blend since I cannot seem to find P.S. Balkan Supreme any more.

    More Arango Balkan Supreme. Good stuff and cheap. Not the best Balkan I have ever had but very good.

    Yesterday I had half bowls of Lane HGL which I enjoy very much. Also some Smokers Pride Vanilla Cavendish. Which was actually very bland.

    This weekend just a few blends. Five Brothers, C&D Night Train with a year on it (much better now then new), Capstan Flake Blue with 2 yrs, G&H Kendal KY and Dark Bird's Eye but are always in my rotation. Of course, a couple of cigars too.

    I'm not familiar with Lord William, what is it?

    Oh, and the Magnum Opus I got a couple weeks back is really starting to open up and come to life after a little jar time.

    Got in late last night and had to settle for a bowl of Stokkeby Black Truffle, (short smoke) Loaded a bowl of DE Gatsby Luxury flake (cube cut) I'm guessing this will take 2+ hrs. to burn.
    Any suggestions for a Virginia/ Oriental blend? most of what I have is heavy on the Lat, I'm looking for a non-aro without.

    Just a bit of Latakia check out Dunhill EMP, which I like. Found these which I haven't tried yet that look interesting. C&D Oriental Silk, McClelland's Tudor Castle, McClelland Pebblecut, McConnell's Oriental, Rattray's Red Rapparee, Rattray's Highland Targe.

    Pipes and Cigars monthly blend from Russ oulette, Cinnamon Roll. Pretty good, cinnamon is subdued and is a killer aromatic blend
