What Did You Smoke Today? (Pipe Edition)

[Emperor Zurg]

Solani 656, ABF rubbed out in my trusty, grubby cob. This is much, much better than the first time I tried this blend in that evil tasting, new Rossi. (The Rossi is doing much better now too btw…) Very nutty tasting… and when I say ‘nutty’ I mean nut shells, not the nut meats themselves… like smoking the broken shells of brazil nuts or something. There's also some kind of baking spice thing coming and going and if I puff too hard, a rather off putting solvent nuance. Smoked slowly though, it's quite nice.

H&H Ten to Midnight in a Savinelli 320.
Later, McClelland Holiday Spirit in a cob.

I am definitely a fan of their blends.
Now, Dunhill Ready Rubbed is one of my favorites. It's a great Virginia/Oriental mixture.

I've also got unopened tins of Ye Ol' Sign and Dark Flake to try soon. lol

Yessir, you got me on a few of the Dunhill blends. Can't remember exactly which ones you sent, but I have enjoyed the EMP, Nightcap, MM 965, Elizabethan, Aperitif and Dunhill Flake.....

Finally !!! Cult Blood Red Moon in a no-name briar.
Ice storm didn't quite pan out like expected, that's a good thing.
Still cold and wet though.

@Haebar , How about calling it "Pickling".
With the rum and vinegar, I thought it would fit.

We got pretty lucky with the ice storm also. Hope all have as much luck as us. The trees looked pretty heavy Saturday morning, but melted during the day. How did you make out @Old Smokey ?.........

Smoking my Guildhall billiard. Testing out a bowl of my latest blend, destined for the cake press. It's got:

22% Dark Fired Kentucky
11% Maryland
11% Oriental
11% Light Fire Cured Virginia
22% Green River Burley (unsweetened)
22% Latakia

I topped it with 1/4 cup of Myers's Rum, with 1.5 tsp sugar (to bind) and 1.5 tsp of vinegar.

Struggling to come up with a name for this blend. Please help with suggestions for a name for this blend.

With the rum and Kentucky, how about "Drunken Daniel Boone"......

Some cherry and cigar leaf flake #33 in my Short Snorter. I think @Bruck sent this to me. If not, I'm sorry I can't remember exactly who, but I think it's his writing on the card.....

We did fine too. Ice on the trees and car windshields a couple of mornings but it was mostly rain. I think we got 2" of rain, which we needed.

Thanks for the suggestion; that's a good one. I decided to call it "Kentucky Navy Cake".

Topped off the weekend with Golden Glow in a Dunhill Canted Dublin.
I'm just north of OKC and Edmond, not much more than a glassing and rain.
Next week it's back to sheet rock again, and about 20 bottles of Tylenol.
