Cobblestone - Chess Pawn 1.75oz
Entry Level
Tried in a filtered Canadian. Light brown and very Black Ribbon; Quite Moist. Tin Note: (not strongly smelling) weak Lat, sweet oak, hint of apricot. Lights up light with sort of a German essence, starts hot but immediately tames, burning vigorously with plenty of white smoke. Very smooth, no harshness. Has Sweetness too! Walnut maintains to late in the bowl. Room note: Outdoorsy, late afternoon woods; in fact, this is not a morning or night smoke. Latakia wakes up before mid bowl offering a Sandalwood character and slight salt. Pairs with: brings out bitterness in coffee. Will compliment a German white or a dry Grigio offering minerality. Nicotine: low. Smokes dry and well behaved all the way down Finishing with Full-On Latakia exhibiting dark chocolate overtone. Aftertaste: Minimal, clean palate.
Lighters - Zippo Sherlock Holmes Pipe Lighter
Every Day Carry
Purchased from Smokingpipes.com. I'm really enjoying this lighter. One star off because the Image of Holmes can flake off. I carry this in my pocket or wherever; i'm not particularly careful with it. The Silhouette of our famous detective is actually either a sticker or maybe screen printed on? either way, it's a bit fragile, so do keep that in mind if considering.
