What Did You Smoke Today? (Pipe Edition)

PS Lux Navy Flake in a Rolo pocket pipe.

I'll have to look, but I think my son has a pic of that raccoon.

Working through a bowl of Rattray's Black Viginia. If you love straight stoved Virginia cavendish, you might still hate this. Good mixed with burley, going to add some perique next time. It does not stand alone. The good news is I'm smoking it out of my brown alligator poker. Poking alligators is a legit pastime for Florda Man.

A couple minutes away from smoking Jim's Va./Bur #2 in a 2015 smooth unfinished Savinelli 320KS author. It's coloring nicely after five smokes and the grain is starting to show. It's a really good smoker and worth owning.

Burnin some flake I pressed about a year ago, in a cob. This one is burley-based with some VA and sweeteners.

...Smoky's Blend is the best selling house blend from Smoky's Tobacco and Cigars in Knoxville, TN. Dave, the store owner, said that it outsells all the other blends tenfold. It's an aromatic blend that tastes like a mixture between Lane's 1Q and Lane's BCA.

You may have hit it on the nose. This pairing, 1Q & BCA has been very common going back more than 30 years.

close to finishing..
2015 Cromwell in a 1981 Mastro de Paja 1C (sandblast) lovat. Water (no need for ice) and a couple of drams of sake on a cold night (<40 degrees).

Good win for the Mets, and a gutty performance by Matt Harvey after getting hit with a batted ball. Of course I wish it were the Yankees but an advantage of living in New York is having multiple teams to root for. Congrats to KC on a gritty performance themselves.

what's a good replacement for Walnut?

Why not Hearth and Home Chestnut? That's supposed to be a match.

loaded up some Glengarry flake in a cob today but never got around to smoking it.
maybe tomorrow. ..
