What Did You Smoke Today? (Pipe Edition)

[JimInks]

Just finished smoking P&W Dummerston in my old reliable 1986 smooth Peterson Kildare 999 Rhodesian.

[JimInks]

Stonehaven in a 1998 smooth medium bend Peterson Limerick 69 with a nickel band.

[NeverBend]

finishing..
2015 (new and fresh) Blood Meridian in a MM Cob. Iced water and natural noises. Burns long and easily without a bite but yet lacking proper flavor. I'll revisit over the next few days and I expect improvement otherwise...

followed by...
2015 (new and fresh) New Stout in a 1985 Ser Jacopo R1 (rusticated) canadian.

[JimInks]

Not far from finishing this bowl of Smoker’s Pride Rich Taste in a 1970s medium bend smooth Ben Wade Golden Walnut freehand.

[JimInks]

Peter Heinrichs Curly Block in a 2002 black pebble finish straight Cavicchi C. Fatto A Mano Billiard.

[Bruck]

Prince Albert cut with a touch of Perique, Latakia, Turkish, Toasted Black Cav, and Maryland I had laying around.

I've decided that I quite like Carter Hall, at least for puttering around the office all day. PA, on the other hand, does absolutely nothing for me.

You've described my homemade flake recipe almost to a T! [the rest of the jar of some aro or other tobacco I don't like much] plus those other leaves in various quantities. I've actually made a pretty good flake with PA as the base flavor.

And 1 out of 1 pipe smokers in the House of Bruck agree - CH is better

[NeverBend]

2015 (new and fresh) New Stout in a 1963 Barling King #6269 Pot with hot (soon to be warm and then cold) tea.

[JimInks]

MacBaren HH Pure Virginia in a mid-late 1930s straight black grain relief Dunhill OX Shell bulldog with a silver band repair.

[NeverBend]

2015 Blood Meridian in a 1962 Barling's Make #6584 canadian with sake and water on a cool Autumn night.

Couple minutes away from smoking Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 1982 black sandblasted paneled slight bend Savinelli flat bottom sitter.
