***What Are You Smoking, May 2020?***

C & D Pegasus in a Mauro Armellini Tinderbox Verona just now, KBV Burley Morning Pipe in a no name basket this morning, and maybe Mac Baren Navy Flake this afternoon. Can't remember if it that was yesterday or today.

TBI Verona -- hard to do better with a house pipe! I love Veronas, not least for their introducing me to Mauro's. Got quite a few by him under his own name, as well as by his daughter after he passed. And of course that doesn't count at least 8 Veronas! ????

Very underrated pipes, for my coins. Finish & accents not always 100%, but decent enough smokes, especially considering the price!

SG Bothy Flake in a Peterson Spigot System 314

An aromatic blend from a localish B&M called "Gentlemen's Corner." It's got a bourbon and vanilla smell/taste to it. Really good stuff. One of the only aromatic blends that I find myself craving sometimes.

PS LBF in a MM Cobbit with a standard amber plastic sets. Folded and stuffed. Sort of getting the hang of it. Much better than previous attempts

Enjoyed a tasty Jazz apple, and am now smoking the last of this sample of McClelland No. 2020 Matured Cake in a 1970s small bowl smooth medium bend Danish Sovereign XXX 324 volcano sitter with a black vulcanite saddle-like stem. Community Coffee is brewing.

Another bowl of KBV’s Dark Fired Cherry in a Savinelli 673 before calling it quits on a not-so-great day. Evening, all. Smoke ‘em in peace and good health.

Alright I can’t take it anymore. What the hell is the Non-Barling Barling?

Shortest baby nap ever cut off my bowl of 2015 HU Dockworker earlier, so I just stepped out to DGT that B.

Now smoking the last of this sample of MacBaren Three Nuns Green in a 2018 smooth straight flame grain Basil Meadows Merchant Service "Bing" replica with an aluminum band and black ebonite stem.

It's an estate pipe I picked up and learned that it was made by (most likely) Charatan for Barling (Imperial) after the Barling factory had closed, as detailed in this thread.
