***What Are You Smoking, November 2023?***

[Tate]

I dunno, but on an early episode of the PM radio show there was a guy from Alaska that had his briar bowl crack. It was from the shock of going outside.

Never had it happen to me, but ever since then I'll set my pipe aside if it's -20°F out and I'm letting the hounds out quick or taking the trash down.

Damn! Thanks buddy! I'll have to watch it then when the real winter starts hitting lol. Maybe I should invest in some cobs for the winter lol ( definitely not PAD or anything)

Scraped some junk outta this Kai Nielsen before loading with 2 year old Pegasus. Still tastes like 5 Brothers, which will pass and is not necessarily bad...



Edit: zoom in on this real close if you want to see how smoke sometimes makes a right angle turn and rises from the lip of the bowl.

I enjoy 22 from what I hear alot of folks dont care for it

I think overall it was well received. Va/Per fans seemed to like it. Maybe older years were just more liked? Not sure. I bought half dozen tins or so. Smoking this tin and if I finish it before Xmas I will crack a 21 I have. Put some time on the other tins.

What are the, uh, proportions?

*I do seriously want to know. Have both 1Q and blending Lat on hand, and interest in smoking either is near zero.

The batch I have was put together by a friend, and I don't recall what ratio it was of each. In looking for some info, I found that this batch has a blending Latakia and Lane BCA instead of 1Q. Which makes sense, because my batch is all dark tobaccos and no golds like 1Q has. I think it was a 1 to 1 ratio, but I can't verify that. The original blender was Joffre the Giant from YT, and I don't recall what his ratio was but I'm pretty sure his blend had 1Q and blending Latakia. I guess if you have both on hand just start with small samples of different ratios and find out what tastes best to you.

Finished work a little earlier than I wanted to, but feral drama took longer than expected, and I figure I'll relax for a change, and watch an old Gene Autry movie on FMC. Nice and simply entertainment is all I need for now. Have about a third of a bowl left of year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a very much appreciated 1979 brown, slight bend grain etched flat front Stanwell Rego 969-48 (09) with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Passing the first half of this bowl of 2021 Watch City Simply Orange Virginia in a black sandblast medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY 4AB No. 182/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. That'll do it for me today.

 

[Lumbridge]

Amphora Virginia in a MM Pony Express. Rubbed the broken flake out a bit more this time to see if I prefer it that way.

Is that a good boy!!

The best. Unfortunately he fits the criteria for the XL Bully breed although he’s not one. As of February I’ll have to muzzle the friendliest dog you’ll ever meet.

 

[Birddog66]

Morning everyone, I’m mostly better which is good enough and smoking ABF in a Kaywoodie Super Grain with shank logo. After this I’ll be walking WeeBay with some BOAF Eccentric in a Kaywoodie Connoisseur.
