    ***What Are You Smoking, September 2021?***

    Experimenting with 4 parts Peter Stokkebye 84 Turkish (Samsoun/Virginia), 4 parts Cyprus Latakia, 2 parts Smyrna in an Ashton Pebble Grain Made in England XX billiard. Nice, soft, cool smoke, but not quite what I want it to be yet.

    Just lighting up some 32 yr old Mac Baren Dark Twist Roll Cake in a James Barber Chevin ** Made By Hand In England by Les Wood with 925 silver band. Now I don't know for a fact that it's 32 yrs old, but a friend gave it to me in April of 2004 and said it was 15 yrs old. It looked and smelled...

    It is yummy! Burley Morning Pipe and Mycroft are also really good, but Mycroft is slightly too strong for me (wow!).

    First smoke of the day is Ken Byron Ventures' The Patience of Doctor Silence in an unknown calabash gourd pipe with block meerschaum bowl, silver band, and a black vulcanite stem. I forgot to polish the silver on this when I worked on my other pipes. Anyways, I bought this pipe from a regular at...

    Trying Capstan Flake (Blue) first the 1st time in a Ferndown Bark ** (Hand Made in England, Les Wood) Bulldog-ish pipe with black vulcanite saddle stem. My favorite pipe for smoking a Virginia flake. Lovely smoke! Last smoke of the night.

    Peretti Omega in a Ferndown Bark ** (Hand Made in England, Les Wood) with tapered brindle vulcanite stem. Nice English blend! This Ferndown is one of my favorite smokers. Just finishing some Henry Weinhard's Root Beer.

    I've been smoking coins of Mac Baren Latakia Roll Cake stuffed into a James Upshall Canadian S-Grade today while I work. The huge bowl on this pipe really works well for stuffing coins. I just give it light twist to fit it down in and then smoke it nice and slow. Drinking Portland water and...

    Thanks! Smokes great and really prefer the vulcanite stems. I have one from the early 2000s with a lucite or ashtonite stem that I don't like nearly as much because of the stem.

    Stuffed a stack coins of Mac Baren Latakia Roll Cake vertically into my Tinder Box Unique Salisbury (Charatan's 2nd) and I'm really enjoying this smoke. Spicy, smoky, sweet, grassy, with a bit of maple. Glad I decided to try this.

    Cup O' Joes Adirondack Tiger Slices in an early Lane-era Charatan's Make Belvedere 47 Ritz heavy shank pot sitter with some Portland water and an NA IPA in an X-Men glass. Latest order from Cup O' Joes came in early so I'm stoked ?
