@Backwoods Briar How long did it take you to smoke and did you have to relight?

@halfdan….One relight with the 5 brothers , when I smoked the twist I had to refuel my lighter. I didn’t time how
Long it lasted but next to time I will!

@FurCoat How long did that clay bowl take to smoke & did you have to relight???

Getting it lit took a few tries but after that I had two relights. It lasted for a little over an hour.

Smoking from a 2020 jar of "Codger Cube" which is cube cut Newminster #400 flake mixed with C&D Crooner. This batch also has a little 1970s Prince Albert in it.

@FurCoat Well done - and I thought this guy was going for the record:

Any advice on packing your pipe / keeping it lit? @Ahi Ka says its like burning a telephone book if you put too much tobacco in your clay pipe

Half way through this bowl of year 2015 John Aylesbury Sir John’s Flake Virginia in a straight smooth light brown 2020 Ryan Alden Ace of Spades squat bulldog with a spalted pecan top and ferrule that’s on the tapered black acrylic stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

@Backwoods Briar I'll have to get an easier to smoke pipe baccy and log the start / end times. Relighting is against the rules if you're going for a smoke-off like I'd like to
Not surprised you had to refuel your lighter while smoking the twist; at English Civil War events I'd keep a length of match cord burning while smoking my clay; need to avoid gunpowder though

Passing the half way mark on this bowl of Ken Byron Ventures Mr. Christian’s Brown Flek 2021 in a straight smooth dark brown year 1933 Parker Super Bruyere patent 10 T 81/F lovat with a black vulcanite saddle stem. This blend ages quickly, and for the better.
