***What Are You Smoking? March 2020***

[B.Fee]

For Ken, actually. I'm just being a taste tester and giving feedback. A couple of others guy do that for him as well.

That is a noble challenge. I hope it becomes a new well liked blend that can replace a loved blend that has has gone by the wayside.
I will be on the lookout for future reviews. ✌

GLP Gaslight, with a very congested nose. Got to finish this blend, was a disappointment for me

I like Klondike gold, it's sad when an enjoyed blend goes the way of the Dodo bird but encouraging to read people are striving to create new loved blends.

Yes, it's very nice, and I'm a little sad that this tin (a Secret Santa gift from weezell) will likely be the only one I ever smoke. But the ephemerality of it also kind of adds to the experience.

About a quarter of a bowl left of Wilke No. 111 in a smooth medium bend post-WW2 Pre-Republic Peterson Shamrock Killarney 9BC with a sterling silver band and a black vulcanite p-lip stem.

Now smoking Wilke Gentry Royal Blend #2 in a 1975 three quarter bend black Dunhill Shell 52021 billiard with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Have a little more work to do. Emergency job is coming in tomorrow, so I'm trying to get ahead on this job so I won't be late on it when I switch to what's coming.

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and my last smoke of the day is Wilke #515 in a 1998 smooth straight Butz-Choquin Bistro 1501 pot with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Watching News Radio.

Hadde's Best Irish in a beater pipe (Cornwall a GBD second) while walking the dogs through field and wood on a wonderful sunny morning. Song thrush and European robins singing, a blackbird (another thrush species) gathering nesting material and diving beetles and water striders at the pond. Also a common pheasant cock standing proudly in the sun. No toads or frogs yet.

Love the 606 shape. I have an Irish Harp 606 that is one of my favorite pipes. Dedicated to 40th Anniversary.
