    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2023?***

    Enjoying Gawith Hogarth & Co. Dark Plug in a Barling Dublin. It’s a beautiful, warm Arizona evening out here in the Mohave Desert.

    ***What Are You Smoking, June 2023?***

    I’ve been smoking a lot of G,H&Co. Dark Flake (scented and unscented) for the past few months. Tonight I opened a tin of SG 1792 and am enjoying a bowl in a Barling Make billiard. It’s definitely kin to the Dark Flake family but is unique in its flavoring. We’ve had a mild June out here in the...

    Coniston Cut Plug

    I’m a big fan of GH&Co. products. I smoke them most every day. My favorite is Dark Plug, followed by Dark Flake both scented and unscented. I have always thought of Coniston as a “Bosun Light”, similar but milder.

    ***What Are You Smoking, January 2023?***

    I just returned from an exploratory offroad day in the desert and am firing up a bowl of Gawith, Hogarth & Co. Kendal Mixed. I’ve been smoking this one quite a bit lately.

    I'm Becoming A Seasonal Pipe Smoker.

    I live in the Mohave Desert, Arizona where summer temperatures can reach 125 with winter highs in the 60’s. Usually very little humidity and no insects to speak of, lol. 9 months of the year outdoor smoking is great. The other three I have to work at it - early morning, late at night, and even...

    What Are You Smoking, October 2022?

    Sam’s Flake in a four dot Sasieni rustic. The weather has turned in the Arizona desert and this morning is 70, no wind, sunny and clear blue skies. Attire continues to be flip flops, shorts and short sleeves. This is my favorite time of year.

    Try to Not Smile When You Read Greg Pease's October Column

    A good read, for sure. I don’t intentionally age tobacco but as I have bought more than I smoke (to ensure supply) most are aging by default.

    What Are You Smoking, October 2022?

    Enjoying a bowl of Gawith, Hogarth &Co. Dark Plug in a small Barling Make Dublin. I love this tobacco but it is the Devil to cut and pack. It rained a bit today and temperatures are cooler out on my back patio in the Mohave desert. I think the hot summer is finally fading.

    The Strongest Blend You’ve Tried

    My answer will still be the same.

    The Strongest Blend You’ve Tried

    The strongest I have smoked is Rustica, and I really don’t care for the flavor much. I really enjoy Gawith, Hogarth & Co. blends and find Dark Plug to be the strongest. I also enjoy Dark Flake (scented and unscented), all the ropes, Dark Birds Eye, Kendal Dark and Kendal Kentucky. I suggest...

    ***What Are You Smoking, Sept. 2022?***

    Enjoying Gawith, Hogarth &Co. Dark Plug in an old Barling Make Dublin. We’re seeing the effects of the Baja hurricane here in the Mohave desert. No rain (back to normal) but a nice cooling off-85 degrees on my back porch this evening. Nice flavor from this buy of a year ago.

    ***What Are You Smoking, Sept. 2022?***

    Enjoying a bowl of Gawarth, Hogarth & Co. Dark Plug in an Ashton Sovereign X. It’s a windy and hot night here in the Mohave Desert. It seems the monsoons have stopped for the time being.

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2022?***

    Gawith, Hogarth & Co. Dark Plug in Barling Garnet Grain Dublin. it is our monsoon season here in the Mohave desert and that means lower temperatures and higher humidity. Still not much rain.

    Nicotine Reactions

    I love the strong blends late at night and occasionally get the nic-ups, common culprits are Gawith & Hogarth dark Plug, Dark Flake u/s and Kendall Kentucky (??). I have learned that slow smoking is my best cure.

    ***What Are You Smoking, June 2022?***

    It’s been a hot day (114) in the Mohave desert. Now at 10:30pm it has cooled down to 100 degrees F and I am enjoying Gawith, Hoogath & Co. Dark Flake Aromatic. The summer heat is on!

    GBD Pipes

    I have several older GBD pipes and all are fine smokers.

    Who Smokes while Playing Guitar?

    Lol, I’m pretty much in the same camp. I am a bassist as well, and smoked after a show but not during. My last show was back in October, and I thought I was done, but then I get a call from a guy that needs a bassist… and I’m doing a show for him the weekend.

    ***What are You Smoking, March 2022?***

    GL Pease Emarcadaro in a GBD billiard out on my back patio. After this I’m getting the jet skis ready for a ride through Topock Gorge on the Colorado River. The temperature will hit 87F today in the Arizona desert and we’re going to enjoy it.

    ***What Are You Smoking, January 2022?***

    Gawith, Hogarth & Co. Brown Irish X in an Ashton Sovereign X billiard. It’s a warm and windy night here in the Arizona desert. A bit cloudy-no Milky Way tonight.
