    ***What Are You Smoking, June 2020?***

    Gave the dogs a bath on this beautiful June day, did some light, recreational plumbing repairs, and celebrated the absence of leaks with a CAO Brazillia, not sure of the vitola but it's corona-esque. I'm not really a fan of CAO, but the Brazillia has always impressed me. Great smoke, and cheap...

    Pimples in Mouth

    We'd better get used to it. The rush to re-open is, as predicted, bringing on a 2nd wave. https://news.yahoo.com/nearly-half-country-experiencing-spike-131306445.html

    What Did You Smoke Today? Cigars.

    Room 101 Big Payback. The first couple I smoked were nutmeg bombs, this one, not so much.

    ***What Are You Smoking, June 2020?***

    Mixed 2/3 Pegasus with 1/3 McClelland Tastemaster again. Smoking it out of my chewed up MM Country Gent again. Still surprised at how good this is!

    Well Look What I Just Found...

    Ugh, you were right, I tried it and it's just an old jar of Stonehaven. I dumped it. ?‍♂️

    Well Look What I Just Found...

    Decided to try and organize my cellar disaster today and found four ounces of McClelland 2010!!! I completely forgot that I had this.

    How Thorough Do You Clean Estate Pipes?

    Right? I've found that rather than leave a residue it strips everything off the wood almost TOO aggressively.

    How Thorough Do You Clean Estate Pipes?

    I soak the stems in either Oxyclean or a beach/water mix, and run a bristled pipe cleaner through them to loosen up any crud. The bowl gets a reaming if needed, then a salt/Everclear treatment. After that I'll clean the outside with Murphy's oil soap. Then I'll put the stem back in and do an...

    What Did You Smoke Today? Cigars.

    Was it a hot day? I had a Pepin Garcia Cuban Classic do that to me last summer. I took it out of my big cooler/humidor, which is in the 65 degree basement, out onto the 90+ degree deck for a relaxing smoke. Well, the thing basically exploded, I was still able to smoke it, but it was a mess!

    Best Budget English

    All three Stokkeby English blends are fantastic, Luxury English, Proper English, English Oriental Supreme, and all a bit different from each other. Plus Balkan Supreme, which I believe Stokkeby manufactures, but is sometimes labeled with other names, for example SP calls it Arango Balkan...

    What Did You Smoke Today? Cigars.

    That's interesting. I've read that the Liga #9s are supposed to be smoked fresh. Could be the same deal here.

    What Did You Smoke Today? Cigars.

    Posted this earlier in the main "What Are You Smoking" thread, but... I'm smoking an Undercrown Sungrown Corona. What a massive let down. I LOVE the regular Undercrowns, but this thing makes me feel like I'm 15 and smoking a White Owl. Just a blah, one dimensional, leathery, meh. This thing...

    Sutliff 507-S Stoved Virginia: Underwhelming To My Palate

    The first time I tried fresh Dark Navy Flake it was like smoking hot air. I though it was an absolute waste of money, so I threw it in a jar and forgot about it. A year or two later I stumbled across it again and figured, what the hell, and tried it again. Oh. My. God. It's wasn't even the same...

    ***What Are You Smoking, June 2020?***

    Finished a bowl of Luxury Twist Flake in a big, SMS lattice meer. Now I'm outside inspecting my nectarine tree, which seems to be dropping all of it fruit. No bueno. I'm smoking an Undercrown Sungrown Corona. What a massive let down. I LOVE the regular Undercrowns, but this thing makes me feel...
