C&D Yale Mixture in a Stanwell Brushed Black bulldog. It's been an unusual experience, due to a different tobacco....
That was the only time so far that I've tried Frosty Mint, and it wasn't in this pipe, and yet I was getting a mild cooling sensation from the Yale Mixture. Turns out the (double-bagged) Frosty Mint was sitting right next to the bag of Yale Mixture, and through three ziploc bags it ghosted the other tobacco. I've got it isolated now, but I'll have to see if the Yale Mixture "airs out," for lack of a better term. On the plus side, Yale isn't the one C&D blend I like (I find it tolerable at best), so the contamination doesn't negatively affect the smoke. But if you decide to try Frosty Mint, dedicate a pipe, and keep the tobacco isolated.
