***What Are You Smoking, July 2021?***

[hawky454]

Cracked a tin of McClelland Red & Black from 2015. This is one of my favorite McClelland VA’s. So scrumptious! I cracked it a few days ago to expose the flakes to air and it has certainly blossomed.

Smoking this 50/50 red and black in my 2016 Gamboni.

That's a cool design.

That's a cool design.

The shell casings really make it pop, and his oil curing gives the briar a walnut smell when warm. A really great little pipe.

Oh wow that revolver pipe even has the ends of the rounds, that is a cool ass pipe!
And the caps even have hammer strikes! ?

Finishing up last nights bowl of Bold Kentucky in a moonshine bent egg. I’m glad I no longer need to be at work by 2am.

Hauled out my mystery pipe this afternoon -- which is remarkably good -- and filled it with Peterson Early Morning Pipe, and the two went together quite well. Now the pipe, a Bent Apple Comoy's but its origin is somewhat mysterious. The Comoy's logo is on the top of the shank in block letters, capital C, with an apostrophe S. It may therefore be from the '50s, but that's it. There's no Made in England or Made in London pressing to be found, or any other identifying mark for that matter. There is no Circle C on the stem. There are numbers on the underside of the shank 788 6, yes, there is a space between the 788 and the 6. A checked what model numbers I could find and there is no Comoy's 788 or 788 6. There is a 6 but it doesn't descrivb a Bent Apple. All I know is it's a great pipe -- the best Comoy's I have.

I’m having Esoterica Dunbar in a MM Country Gentleman, while sipping a bourbon, on the front porch. Rain showers moving through and cooling things down temporarily. Cheers!
