    Fifth Annual Spring Forward Box Pass

    Change of strategy. Got to thinking about having to re-type the WordPerfect doc when I'm all done and since I am inherently lazy and a bad typist I won't do it. Instead I'll just post as I go and maybe individual discussions will spontaneously happen. My final post will be my "puts and takes."...

    I have opened a WordPerfect file to post my sampling to. I will take the full six days and smoke nothing BUT box pass stuff. After which I'll post here. MAYBE I'll send the box on to Puff Daddy. Maybe not. Starting sample is GLP Maduro Cut Cake. How can it NOT be first? tj

    Fifth Annual Spring Forward Box Pass

    Holy Shiite! Aside from two small sheets of bubble wrap, this thing is solid tobacco. There are so many zip-lock samples that no other packaging was needed for protection. Just plain BAB's fat. The smell is incredible and is wafting through the whole house. There is NO...

    Levels of humidity in tobacco

    Aren't we trying for a one size fits all here? I don't adjust the moisture of any blend. I smoke it as it comes. The "adjustments" I make are in terms of how much I put into the bowl and the technique I use during the actual smoke; ie, puff rate, tamping, ash removal. how often I pass a cleaner...

    Fifth Annual Spring Forward Box Pass

    The box hit over a three day weekend and we had out of towners. Most everything in it I have tried and pretty much have on hand. My apologies to all for my apparent lack of inthusiasm.
