I gotta ask, anything bacon tasting about it??

Not that I could tell. Citrus for sure and maybe a little meaty but not quite 'bacon'. It wasn't bad but not a new favorite.

Thank you, and so am I. Chapter 31 of The Book Of Proverbs ought to have an extra verse: "She findeth her husband's pipe when the idiot hath lost it."

"...for yea, she realizeth he never should have taken a pipe that beautiful into a field on a farm. But lo, they both rejoiceth that the smoking untensil which once was lost, now is found."

I grew up on a farm and can sympathize, but that thing is striking, gorgeous and unique, due to the shank treatment. No way I'd trust myself not to either lose or destroy a nice pipe. You need at least few cheap pipes to smoke on the farm, and if they get lost (and they will), no big deal.

Ding ding ding! Correct on the flavors. I wasn't gonna spoil it for you. That blend is either love or hate. It's like nothing else. Lots of KDF for BBQ-ish smoke, and bourbon, which also isn't unusual and many like, but the orange WITH those two things is what throws those who don't like it off.

If you like orange duck, or the orange peel beef at a P.F. Chang's, you'll like it. If you want orange zest left out of your dry rub BBQ? You probably won't.

One heck of an XL canook. I've always admired the shape from afar, but haven't seen one yet that had the proportions to catch my eye and make the trigger finger itchy. That one might do it. Congrats!

After breakfast bowl of Kentucky in a Celebi.

Enjoying some Cowboy Coffee from the CS on this cool, rainy day in the south. Smoked from a MM legend.

A third of the way through this bowl of year 2024 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Fed our cats, Daisy the Feral Princess and Harry the Hairy. We were supposed to have rain, ice and possibly snow, but it doesn't look like we got any of that. So much for our local TV weather station, which brags about having the most trusted and accurate forecasts in our area. Boneheads!

On today's morning commute I brought along my trusty Pete loaded up with Cowboy Coffee. As per usual I enjoyed my morning smoke with some delightfully black coffee.

Hope you all have a terrific taco Tuesday!

Stanwell Melange in a Falcon. I think that 2 out of 3 people in this Forum (I mean the men) have facial hair. I also used to have, for years, all kinds: beard, goatee, moustache... I miss it sometimes...
See you again tomorrow (I hope) good people!
