Just smoked one of these at PCB Cigars in Panama City Beach and it seemed like I was smoking a bowl of Escudo. Very good!

Cobblestone - High Spirits Spiced Rum 1.5oz
Yo Ho Ho…
…and a bottle of rum! Got this during the last Cobblestone sale and glad I got the spiced rum. A little wet, several relights but paired well with a tumbler of Papa’s Pilar Dark Rum!

Cobblestone - Cafe Black Coffee 1.5oz
Pretty Good
Got a few flavors during the last Cobblestone sale. Black coffee didn’t have very much coffee flavor but the cream topping saved the day. One of my favorites out of the flavors that I bought.

Missouri Meerschaum - Cornell & Diehl Charles Towne Cobbler
First Cob
Just got my CT Cobbler today and like other reviewers here I had to do a little clean up on the bowl and stummel and clear out the wood burrs and shavings. After that I broke it in with a bowl of Haunted Bookshop and it smoked great for my first smoke with a cob. Glad I decided to try it out!

Borkum Riff - Bourbon Whiskey 1.5oz

Codger Country: Borkum Riff Bourbon Whiskey
  • ► Borkum Riff Bourbob Whiskey brings back fond memories for me. Back in the 70’s and 80’s a father figure to me and my pipe smoking inspiration smoked this. This was before the internet and boutique tobaccos. You picked this up at the local mom &pop grocery store along with the other codgers. I keep some in the cellar to smoke a bowl and reminisce every now and then. R.I.P. Doug Craig
