I need to rewatch that movie again. So many great scenes.
So, about halfway through this bowl:
The chocolate isn't strong at all in the smoke, but it is there - especially on the retrohale. I am picking up the Lakeland, but like @cursethis said, it's very, very faint. A long, slow pull brings it out a bit. I'm not getting much perique, but that's not really a bad thing because I tend to not really enjoy the taste of perique until it's had some time to mature. I agree that this tastes "young", but I can really see the potential here.
Possible, but I think it's more likely that some people just have different receptors. While you or I might find something to be particularly mild, the same thing might strike others as overpowering. It's the classic YMMV. I mean...some guys enjoy smoking Grousemoor, for crying out loud.I got just a wisp of Lakeland on my batch. I wonder if he entire 3000 tin batch was done at once? Or in different batches making some more Lakelandish than others?
I wondered that too since it's now showed up on the dreaded P&C website as of today. Seems odd if it was done at once that a week later P&C got a supply.

Or P&C still just can't be bothered with pipe smokers. Maybe their vaunted new software screwed up again.

Either that, or they saw it was flying off the shelves elsewhere, so someone checked the warehouse and realized they had been shipped some in advance of the release bit never got around to opening the carton.Haha true true! "Why did everyone else get it and we didn't?"
"I dunno....lets just show we have it and send out and email. By the time their order ships next spring we probably will have it".

I think I finally got the soapy, perfumey taste out of the pipe...burley works wonders.
