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

    The final bowl from an aged tin of C&D Morning Drive in this Carey. After half a tin I added about 10% Latakia, which improved it notably. Still not on my reorder list - however, I always tally my bowls and this tin provided 28 large bowls! It was like loaves & fishes; the tin just seemed to...

    Ennerdale Flake

    Working through 2oz of fresh Kendal Flake now. I don’t let this dry but for a minute immediately after fully rubbing out. I want all that saucy goodness! IMO it is a superb afternoon smoke with coffee or sweet tea. Haven’t made it to my tin of Ennerdale yet, so can’t provide an objective...

    Enjoying a Saturday full of college football and this Dunhill Dress Billiard full of 2012 Westminster

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

    Starting the morning with some well aged Peterson Sherlock Holmes and a cup of Assam so strong a mouse could walk across it. Between the two, tannin overload! The Carey is helping bleed just a wisp of air into the mix and keeping it reasonable.

    Tobacco Suggestions

    I’ve smoked them all (and am smoking a bowl of Sherlock Holmes as I type) and think you’ll enjoy the variables while getting a 101 in English style tobaccos with the three Dunhill relabels. Sherlock is my least favorite of the three due to the strong tannic / mouth drying effect it has on me...

    Gorgeous warm SE NC Coast afternoon. G&H Kendal Flake in this Alpha is just right?

    How Long Does a Bowl Last You?

    Ditto for me on all points.

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

    Just cracked a May 2012 tin of G.L. Pease Westminster. I’ve had pouches of Red Man with smaller leaf chunks ? However, after pulling apart some of the largest chunks and a quick mix, this stuff is singing in my Carey from the Shalom factory!

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

    A bowl of aged G.L. Pease Ashbury to start the morning. Steam rising off both my coffee and the pond on this cool October morning.

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

    G&H Kendal Flake - such a wonderful afternoon smoke - in another Israeli Alpha. Seems to be the theme of the day as I spent a portion of the morning studying some Hebrew translation. ?

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

    It’s a cloudy Carolina afternoon. Big pot of chili simmering on the stove and just finishing up a large Carey billiard full of 2019 C&D Buffalo Soldier. I guess “spicy” is the theme for the day!

    Enjoying a later than usual start this Saturday morning with some C&D Morning Drive in this Norther Briars gem.

    Morning Blend

    I always start with an early pipe and cup of coffee. Since I usually smoke 2-3 bowls a day, my first one is usually the lightest, most subtlety nuanced blend, graduating to stronger more robust blends later in the day. Right now in my blend rotation that means Fox Provost Mixture, G.L. Pease...

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

    Good Morning! Some recent issue Rattray’s Black Mallory in a Carey Pot to start the day. Heading to Low Country Pipe and Cigar shortly for the monthly pipe club meeting. First one I’ve been able to attend due not having joined the ranks of the retired ?
