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

Peterson Irish Flake in a Ropp Tonic tapered red stain apple with silver colored bands and a deep red stem. I seem to rub Irish Flake out a lot and just let it dry in a bowl to have it stay lit, but the flavor is stellar. This Ropp has a thin but wide bit that is easy to clench. Nice little pipe.

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am now smoking KBV The Dread Planet 2020 (Hellstar) in a smooth straight 1980s James Upshall Walnut pot with a black vulcanite tapered stem. Watching Mad Dog Russo.

After almost a week without a pipe I was able to squeeze in a bowl today. But I had no idea what to smoke. I watched a great interview with Ernie so I decided on some year old Simply Red. For some reason I have struggled with this tobacco. So much so that I had Rouxgaroux in my cart and didn’t pull the trigger (if anyone has some they want to trade for either Simply Red or 5100 send me a dm). This is the first bowl that I have enjoyed. Not sure if it was the age or what, but I enjoyed the sweet and creamy flavor and it didn’t bite me like before. Hopefully as it continues to age it will only get better. I enjoy other blends from Ernie and think it’s more of an issue with my palate.

C&D CRF with Perique in a Peterson System Spigot 314. I think just the few months of extra time in the jar since release has improved this blend quite a bit, IMO.

Not far from finishing this bowl of first release Watch City Simply Red in a slight bent black pattern etched 1979 Lorenzo Lorsan Sigma tilted top with a gray swirl acrylic saddle stem. Been busy chatting about business.

 

[JimInks]

Did a little snacking since this is an off-diet day, and am now smoking KBV Burrrrley Morning Pipe Fall/Winter Edition Beta Test in an undated, unbranded, slight bend smooth darker brown made in France Los Alton VBF zulu with a black vulcanite saddle stem.

As I sign off from a company where I have worked for 20+ years I am smoking a Company banded memorabilia cigar that was handed out in our last offsite

Billy Bud Blonde in a MM Country Gentleman.

 

[ashdigger]

Kaywoodie Thorn Four Digit Push Stem. WW2 production. They stopped using stingers during that timeframe so the metal could go to the war effort. After WW2 they also went to 2 digit for most pipes.

 

[hairvise]

Bittersweet experience smoking WCC Rouxgaroux that I missed out on buying but fortunately our generous friend here, @musicman , provided me with a sample. It's only my first taste of this blend, but it's certainly scratching an itch here in rainy (hard to believe!) San Francisco.

PS Navy flake, adult beverage and watching the sun drop.

Enjoy your evening.
