    What's the % of Dark Fired in Old Gowrie?

    Came in today and whipped up a blend. As I don't have a scale, just eye-balled it and probably ended up with 7-8% dark fired. Had a notable dark fired presence. Actually reminded me of ODF with a heavy dose of perique added. So, in other words, a good blend.:)

    You just combined 2 of my favorite things: Taco John's and Barnes and Noble.:LOL:

    Father’s Day Dinner

    Your entrees look mighty fine. But, doubt their size would be sufficient to fill me up.:)

    Never got fruity. Always peppery.

    Looks like a Rua Sherlock Holmes original, though.

    Exhaust Fan For New Smoking Room?

    I smoke a cigar maybe twice a year. But, given the strength of its smell, only smoke it outside while I only smoke a pipe inside.

    Have a 20s in my weekly rotation as well. I typically prefer a larger bowl but it is surprisingly a long smoke for its size.

    Sounds like a plan. Thanks.

    What's the % of Dark Fired in Old Gowrie?

    So, I decided to give this experiment a try and ordered 8 oz of Bayou Morning and 2 oz of dark fired which I'll mix together thinking that the dark fired component shouldn't be higher than 20%. Also ordered 8 oz of Oriental Silk.

    Nice of Rudy, but he's still a bit of a nut case.;)

    Exhaust Fan For New Smoking Room?

    I simply put a box fan in my open den window which is the only place I smoke. Sucks out the smoke quite well.

    Very nice. The only Rhodesians I like are the chubby ones, (of which I have 1-a Dublin and London), with the exception of the Baskerville and Watson.

    What's the % of Dark Fired in Old Gowrie?

    Am thinking of whipping up my own version of this by adding dark fired to Bayou Morning but don't know how much DF to add to a half pound of BM to approximate it. What do you think? thanks.

    $800 De Minimis Import Tax Exemption Set To End Friday

    Wonder if and/or to what degree this will affect restocking Peterson pipes by US retailers.

    Too small for me. Though I have a Pete in the "beaver made it" finish, am not that keen on it. Their red over black stains are fine but the all black stain numbers don't do it for me. Do think that in recent years the black stain has looked to caked on.

    Sounds like they've got quality control problems nowadays.

    Nanner Boats

    Have never liked bananas. As children, though, my brother would put them on peanut butter sandwiches. But, what does he know as he used to put fried liver on his ice cream.

    Cobble is pretty close to that.
