Got a tin of McConnell Oriental (along with 5 lb of HH ODF). Been wanting to try it for some time.

If you enjoy Presbyterian your really going to like McConnell Oriental. Its in the same family taste wise. Original Oriental has a tad more Latakia, and contains some Black Cavendish. It burns cooler
and longer then Presbyterian. I love them both, but prefer Oriental due to the smoking properties.

I had a surprise package from [mention]Maynard[/mention] today containing 4 oz of OJK. This is OJK with the former cut which I have always preferred to the current ribbon. Thanks!

neat!

I'd like to get a better look of that pipe screen, looks to be a different design than the typical ones being sold.
