Thank you! It was a fun project. If any of my pipes have the slightest fill, they will get similar treatment.
Im having another bowl of Chocolate Manhood/Perique in the Danish Rusto. Smores and Local Brew as the kids get dressed up. Doorbells will start ringing within the hour i Bet.

I have to say I think the sweet is usually more a function of the Virginia tobaccos in a blend. The burley presents to me more as earthy with a bitter edge. Depending on the casing, there is a molasses or cocoa sometimes.
Thinking of really good burley though, Wessex is about as good as it gets. PS Pressed Burley is pretty good too and is easy to get.
