***What Are You Smoking, March 2024?***

[Skippy B. Coyote]

After having some Orlik Golden Sliced this morning and Mac Baren HH Burley Flake in the afternoon, I'm winding down for the night with a bowl of Sutliff Pumpkin Spice in the Country Gentleman. I don't know if I'll still like it as much when the weather gets warmer, but I have been really enjoying Pumpkin Spice these cool late winter evenings the past week.

Irish Flake in the fleabay meer will probably be closing out the evening.

Been a minute for posting. Time traveled last weekend out of town. Back at it tonight with WCC Santa Sack in a Stokkebye

Close to finishing this bowl of 2019 Prince Albert in a straight smooth walnut 1927 KBB Kaywoodie Drinkless 86 dublin with a tapered black vulcanite stem. This model was only made in 1927. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Listening to Gangbusters on the XM.

Enjoy the weekend good people!

Not far from finishing this bowl of Wilke No. 72 in a pre-1974 dark brown straight Larus & Brother Co. Signature billiard with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem with the initials LCR on the top of the stem. This blend was smoked by Walter Cronkite.

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of Wilke Royal Admiral in an undated, unbranded, slight bend smooth darker brown made in France Los Alton VBF zulu with a tapered black vulcanite stem.

Finished work for the day, and am smoking year 2020 Angler's Dream in a 1978 smooth brown three quarter bend Sir Brent axe with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Haven't smoked this pipe since the early 1990s, and I thought I'd see how it does.

Last smoke of the day is Watch City Queequeg’s Moby Dick Series in a slight bend smooth brown post WWII 1940s Sasieni Ivory 101 Westminster diplomat with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Going to check on Sam the Scamp.

Firing up some Marlin Flake mixed with a bit of wallace flake in the Paul Becker Pot.

Edit...well that was boring and flat. I changed to White Horses.

Late night with my old friends, Haunted Bookshop and the Dr. Grabow Lark.




I don't smoke Haunted Bookshop too often anymore, since it tends to really rough up my throat and sinuses, but aroma and flavor wise it really is my all time favorite burley blend. These days I usually smoke Pegasus instead, since removing the perique and replacing it with black canvendish makes it a much kinder and gentler blend on the throat and nostrils, but even though the canvendish is unsweetened I still find Pegasus to have a slight sweetness that I'd prefer it didn't have. Haunted Bookshop gets that dark, musty burley flavor perfect in my book, it's just a shame that it's a little rough on the olfactory bits so I can't smoke it very often. Maybe I'll give Old Joe Krantz Blue a try next, to see if it's similar to Haunted Bookshop and Pegasus but without the condimental perique or black canvendish.

Gawith 2010 Brown Twist. Today I thought I would do something completely different and smoke it in a ..... late 19th century meerschaum 'cutty' pipe!

Woke up making a series of bad decisions, one involved prematurely waking the wife. Bad idea!
