What Did You Smoke Today? (Pipe Edition)

Just about done with some LJ Peretti 1072 in a nice Custombilt.

Rattray's Marlin Flake in my Rossi Prince.

Standard Tobacco Company of Pennsylvania War Horse Ready Cut in a 2015 smooth unfinished Savinelli 320KS author with a black vulcanite stem.

Had some Milan Sportsman in a cob while recording my review of it. That will be up tomorrow.

Now I am enjoying my last bowl of the evening, Samuel Gawith Cabbie's Mixture in a cob.

Peretti’s Boston Slices in an egg shaped medium bend smooth Burgundy colored 1985 Caminetto with a black acrylic stem. Have enough left for a bowl or so.

Almost half way through this bowl of Orlik Racing Green in a 1979 medium bend etch relief meerschaum lined TinderBox Arabesque with a black vulcanite stem.

Part way through this bowl of Jim's Va/Bur in a 2015 Basil Meadows Bing Crosby Merchant Service replica with a smooth straight thin shank, aluminum band and black ebonite stem.

Part way through this bowl of MacBaren Symphony in a slight bent black pattern etched 1979 Lorenzo Lorsan Sigma tilted top with a gray swirl colored stem. Simply Apple is my drink.

This is the first time I've tried a flake using the cube cut method. I think I like it.

I really like the flavors cube cutting tends to bring out.
My only problem is that I prefer to just gravity fill the cube cut, but I also like to keep my ash relatively clean. It is hard to dump the ash when your tobacco wants to fall out with it!
But some flakes are worth the hassle.

If you're smoking outside, just loosen the ash a bit with a pick and blow lightly across the bowl. That's what I do, it just whisks away the ash and leaves the heavier, un-burned tobacco behind.

I might have to go for some FVF flake or Newminster 400 later this afternoon. I have a pipe with a slight latakia ghost right now and it goes good with VA flake... either that or I'll have to beef up the lat ghost with another bowl of Gaslight... further details as events warrant.
