Tampers & Tools - Larry Blackett Tamper - Pewter Dracula
Perfect for the Classic Horror Fan
This tamper is a great little show piece for sitting on a shelf with your pipes or books, and also makes for a good tamper. Every time I use it I have people asking me to see it and where I got it. The only small blemish is that the bottom is slightly off level but it still sits flat and never tips over. I have it sit next to my peterson churchwarden on my shelf when I'm not using it and it looks stunning. Definitely worth the price. Dracula has always been a favorite of mine out of the classic horror villains.

Capstan - Flake Blue 1.75oz
Citrus, Grass, and Sea Shanties
This was the first more premium tobacco I tried in my pipe. I smoked it in my Peterson D15 Churchwarden fishtail. It was a decently cool smoke right out of the tin. A little moist but was still and enjoyable smoke. The tin smelled heavily of citrus and my wife added that it almost smelled of horse feed. Very grassy and reminded me of a spring day as the trees and flowers bloom and the wind whistles through the fresh growth of grass. While smoking it the citrus was definitely the first hit to my tongue. Not too strong but quite pleasant. As I continued with my cadence I began to have an after taste akin to the taste in your mouth after you have been out to sea for the day and the salty air has left a slight crust upon your lips and mouth of salt. It was very pleasant and I enjoyed it greatly. Smoked very cool right out of the tin (partly to do with it being from a churchwarden) and was very enjoyable.
