Starting off the evening smoke with a bowl of recently rehydrated Carter hall, in an "imported briar" churchwarden.
Lucky Strike? You know those things will kill you bro! Try keeping to Players or Woodbine if you can get them but better still a pipe. BTW I love the meerschaum cigarette holder. I have seen those things turn brown on a few packs of smokes. In the mid 1990s they used to sell for about $8 each. I would hate to think what they cost these days!
That’s what I do. A mild blend and Strong blend. The contrast is good for the palate.Well, my first bowl of Carter Hall was a success, I can see why some of you like it so much. It's easy and mild. It went just fine with the whiskey and water I enjoyed on the side. I'm moving on to something a little more robust though, and am now going to enjoy some Orlik Dark Strong Kentucky in a cob.
We need to make some tobacco blends flavored with your dinner choices Mr.Inks. Lol, never read your post on an empty stomach. ?Relaxing after a wonderful salad, trout and sugar snap peas dinner, with peach pie and a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream for dessert. I'm part way through this bowl of Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth straight late ‘50s, early 1960s Lane era Charatan Selected 43 Dublin with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Watching Treasure Island starring Wallace "murderer of Ted Healy" Beery and Jackie Cooper.
