Earlier, I smoked Ken Byron Ventures Fat Old Sun in a smooth medium bend straight grain 2001 Karl Erik Ekstravagant brandy with a leaf engraved silver band and a black acrylic saddle stem. Working on a review of it.

Just finished running errands and this bowl of 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 stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad.

Now smoking Ken Byron Ventures Right Meow in a 1990 smooth medium bend Nording freehand sitter with a wider top than bottom that also has a ridge and a narrower bowl resembling an upside down spout, with an amber colored lucite saddle stem with cream swirls.

The Planta Full English: A very decent smoke. In my top ten Englishes. Sorry I can't provide more detail; I seem to review in terms of "I like it", or "I don't like it". I'd say it's light on the latakia, but is also a smooth smoke.

Thanks.

Harris- Damn that looks like jade or some other green stone. Does it appear so in person? (yeah, I am not doubting it's briar, exquisitely carved.)

Smoked a Oliva Serie G Maduro Cigar during my evening commute in the car. A reasonably fast, RWD German with lots of low RPM torque, a Friday evening traffic and a cigar does not mix very well. Bursts of acceleration, then slow down and a big puff at the cigar in synchronized harmony meant that I puffed the cigar like a train.
