Vauen Barontini Rusticated 9mm.

I'll update once I've smoked these. It was too windy today to try a new pipe.

Hard to find

I found Dunhill's Nightcap at www.paylesspipes.com. Service was fast.

Now if only I could find Squadron Leader, Stonehaven, and several others. Online brothers of the briar seem to want the hobby to grow, but it's already hard to find many famous tobaccos..

I liked Nightcap, but maybe not as much as Early Morning Pipe. Early Morning Pipe is milder, and smells like hay, and strangely enough makes me feel like I am healthier for smoking it. Nightcap was a little more cigar-y, a little stronger, but did make me sleepy. I would swear it has one part-per-million of menthol or other calming essence. By its taste, Nightcap should be called 'After Dinner'. The room note is different, smooth and mild. My final smoke of the day is usually at 3am on the roof of my building, when I enjoy Solani Silver Flake or Westminster.


This is becoming a full-fledged tobacco review, which is better left to www.tobaccoreviews.com. I have begun posting there as 'conicallybored'.
