Which aromatic should I open next?
At the 2012 Chicago Pipe Show, I bought two C&D tins, Irish Blessing and Berry Good. Which should I open tonight?

I'd go for a bit of the Irish. You can't have enough blessings.

If the two tins are stacked on top of each other, go for the one on the bottom.
If the two tins are side by side, go for the one on the left.
If one is in front of the other, go for the one towards the back.
If they are diagonal to each other, ask Del.

Okay, Winton. I've smoked both of those.
I like the Irish Blessing better, but it was very sweet. I ended up cutting it 50:50 with some flavorless leftovers.
The Berry is light fruit and vanilla. It is generically good. You will enjoy it.
So.... depending on your mood.
- Irish Blessing if you want a heavy aromatic
- Berry Good is you want a mild aromatic.

This is very confusing now. One was on top of the other for years. Then I shuffled them around recently. They were side by side for awhile.Del wrote: ↑Wed Sep 12, 2018 11:02 am...

I am trusting Del on this one. Since I don't have any flavorless leftovers, I will go with the Berry Good. Thanks everyone for your input.

Re: Which aromatic should I open next?
I tried the Berry Good, but didn't find much flavor. Maybe it was because the tin was 6 years old. Maybe I would have enjoyed it more when it was younger. Oh Well, I have lots of other blends I like more.
