    I love a good "secret origin" tale. Watched this huddled by the woodstove while writing letters. Very comforting somehow. Glad you're posting vids regularly, mate...

    Always good to see you out in the woods, man, thanks for taking us along. I've learned that Mac Baren virginias tend to bite the hell out of me and I can't enjoy those blends mindlessly or while doing something else. MB Mixture Scottish Blend comes to mind, for example. Glad you were able to give this a try over a cuppa and hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend.

    Interesting video. Young Leo tugging on jackets asking about tobacco is a funny thought. The only pipe tobacco I remember asking about was when I was in my late teens. The fellow smoked cigar buts in his pipe. It smelled terrible. Which was why I asked him about it. I find most of the Mac blends bite me. With the exception of the h.h. and amphora lines. I'm occasionally willing to suffer the bite but I find a balsa filter helps. I'm not surprised that you aren't surprised by this blend. At a certain point a man knows what he likes. Doesn't mean he can't appreciate something else. Especially something with the air of nostalgia about it. At times nostalgia can mean a lot. Good to see you out in the woods.

    Ahh love the longer format videos. It makes me want to get a stove box and explore the woods while smoking a pipe. Cheers Leo 👍🏾

      Haha, yeah, about 5 minutes ASMR of me making coffee does add to the length a bit.. 😆
      Thanks for watching

    Hello Leo. So nice to catch you out in the woods for a coffee and chat. Beautiful hat! Be well.

    Hi Leo! It looks so good being outdoors in the woods with spring in the air and birds chirping. You can’t beat a cup brewed in the open with a pipe. I actually like those simple light aromatic blends, especially outdoors while doing something. But I too reach for the stouter blends more often these days.
    Perhaps that Highland Mixture will perform better with some drying out and airing?
    Be well my friend!

    Hi Leo, I love your vids, amazing scenes, baccy & adventure. I’m inspired by your knowledge of nature. I think it is exactly like Players Whisky btw. I think you’d love Super Value Bourbon Whiskey at smoking pipes, very cheap & very nice! Cheers mate, Ross 🐜 🦡 🌲

    I approached a pipe-smoker at Logan Airport. European. Well-dressed. Seem pleased to talk about his pipe lifestyle. A decade later, I'm trying to smoke a pipe curbside. Someone approached me. Must be something affable about a lone pipe-smoker if people are willing to approach...

    A cup of coffee a pipe and some time in the woods is a great day. I can only smoke the HH line from macbaren. Some topping they use burns me up no matter the tobaccos. Thanks for the sub! I returned the favor.

    Hello Sir,
    I have not watch RUclips pipe video for sometime. I really like pipe smoking, but (1) my wife doesn't agree with the hobby and (2) it is way too cold during the winter to enjoy pipe smoking in my area (it has been -31C... -48C with the wind factor for the past 48hrs.... really see that cold, but still normally around -15C here, Not much fun smoking outside.), so I tend not too wtahc too much pipe related videos... it hurt a little ;-)
    I always enjoy your videos.
    I found it a little sad for you that the Highland blend didn't match your expectation. Sadly, it is often the case when memories come into play.
    I am totally with you in the fact that Lakelands are not aromatics. I only have one aromatics in my place. And I maybe have really enjoyed 2-3 since I started pipe smoking. Lakelands brings me in a totally other place. I really enjoyed them. Ennerdale Flake being one of my favorite... and probably the one tobacco I crave the most.
    Take care sir.

    There is a beauty with drinking coffee from a plain tin plated tin cup that has blackened from heated on a wood fire while sitting next to a fire in the woods or camp. If the coffee becomes cold you can just set it close to the fire then if it's too hot it will quickly cool if you can stand to wait. It s a little disconcerting though to hear coffee sizzle if the cup is scalding hot from the fire when you first tip it attempting to have a sip because you are to hasty to allow it to cool. Disaster averted if you aren't careless.

    Leo, I did comment earlier, however RUclips seem to have deleted it, unless it is in your comment section waiting approval from yourself, probably because I did put a link to a Outdoors supplier I thought you may be interested in, Well if it has been deleted without trace, just to say thank you for sharing, and I did smoke Whisky 'Rubbed Ready' as they called it, it was back in the seventies, I must have enjoyed it at the time, in fact I still have an empty tin from those days as a reminder. hope the oriinal comment does turn up. Steve.

      Hi Steve, thanks for watching. I haven't found that comment and I'm just looking through on the video management page, so I will publish it if I find it! What are your thoughts on the difference between now and then? @ICHIBAN DIPPER thinks it's the same now as then. As I have no point of reference I couldn't say. Feel free to let me know the name of the outdoor supplier, if not the link. I may know them already. Take care

      @@TheAmbulatoryAnarchist Reference the tobacco, I will have to get some 'Highland' from MSS and let you know if it brings back any memories...The outdoor company is Military Mart in Ormkirk , from where amongst other things I got my pocket rocket, ideal for setting up for a fresh brew, . Checked on the jumpers, stuck between the Moss Green and the Olive. Catch you again soon. Steve.
