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

[maulragoth]

About to finish off a bowl of Presbyterian Match in a bent Apple cob w/ blue/white swirl spear style Forever Stem. I have been trying to prevent rim char on the cob and doing well at it, but it is still seeming unavoidable. (It is kind of still soaking in from the sides). Maybe if smoking half bowls... maybe. It's just not working even though I have done well at keeping it clean. It was a good trial.

Pease's Sextant in a Peterson Deluxe System 20s

I’ve really enjoyed Sextant lately. I wasn’t so sure a few months ago. Maybe age, maybe a little better technique and drying. It’s a great smoke indeed.

I've heard good things about Doblone d'ro, do you like it? It looks tempting.

I like it quite a bit, it's a complex va per with other players but it's smooth if you take it slow. The loose coins just stuff and smoke great. Now they've come out with 3 new blends.

Almost a third of the way through this bowl of year 2014 HU Directors Cut in a smooth straight Lane era Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. Community Coffee is my drink.

Just got around to smoking the sample of Dunhill Dark Flake @BROBS hooked me with last month. So Peterson re-released this in the UK? Anyone know when/if the US will get it?

After 50 days in transit, my 1992 Dunhill Root Briar 4102 arrived in Singapore from Walker Pipe Repair. I picked this guy up from an Ebay auction in the Netherlands on a whim last year and I think I paid around 50 GBP for it. The stem didn't fit and there was a big notch out of the side where someone was slightly over zealous with a reamer, so I never smoked it. Always thought I'd get around to repairing it but I was never quite confident enough, so earlier this year I sent it off to Walker Pipe Repair and had it refurbished and fitted with a new acrylic stem. About to smoke it for the first time with some Germain 1820 Flake and a post in Pipe Talk with some photos should be imminent.

Did a little snacking, and am now smoking the last of my stash of Wilke No.178 in a smooth early Radice full bend crossgrain/bird's eye 2 dot Clear with a black acrylic tapered stem.

Smoked two bowls this eve: Rustica (just one flake) in a Barling meerschaum, then McClelland Drama Reserve in a cob.
