Had a pipe of Frog Morton Across the Pond late Saturday night (no pic - was too dark). I selected it on a whim; I'd received a tin a over a year ago as a new pipe smoker and after trying a bowl was not impressed at all. I remember I found it distinctly boring. I jarred the rest and immediately forgot about it until I came across it the other night rummaging through my hoard. However, I was struck this weekend on how it really is a nice blend with subtle flavor notes. Nothing earth shattering, but enjoyable.

I'm mainly posting this as an illustration on how one's palette develops over time. It's kinda like red wine. When you first start drinking red wine, they all taste similar, but the more of them you try, the more you notice the differences and nuances and develop preferences (which can also change over time).

I am smoking Rattray's Old Cowrie in a American Oak pipe, a glass of Cointreau Liqueur beside me.

Good one Sid ... LOL!
There is a country song that has the line, "We say Grace and we say Ma'am and if you ain't into that we don't give a D@#$".

If I'd done that as a kid I would have woken up on the floor about 5 minutes later saying "what happened, why am I on the floor, and why does my head hurt so much?!"

RLP-6 in an MM Legend with a mug of Lipton tea.

Up until recently I've steered clear from aromatics but lately I quite enjoy a mild lite-aro with my morning cuppa.
RLP-6 is not at all what I was expecting; not at all overly sweet or goopy. Though it does coat my tongue with what I suspect is PG. Strange since it's not at all moist.

Smoking 4 aces...out of a briar pipe from the reservation gas station... I am definitely never smoking this one again but it's pretty gnarly out and I'm not running to fox peak again.
