***What Are You Smoking, October 2021?***

[JimInks]

Amazing. And you live in such a tobacco friendly state. NC/SC is one of my favorite areas to visit. Wife’s family in the region. I can feel the moon shine, so in my mind…Actually proposed to my wife down there. More than 20 years later, I blame the Carolinas.

Thanks for sharing your celebration of the pipe/tobacco world with so many. We all get something a little different, but your reviews just seem to touch on points everyone can relate to or discover, even if not all, so it’s very well done.. Good stuff. ?

I thank you again for the kind words. I try to make my reviews as helpful to the novice as to the veteran as much as possible. That's why I detail the aspects of individual tobaccos, and then give the reader an overall idea of what flavors they will notice the most. It may seem redundant, but it's a method that I felt was important to relate so there would be no guessing about anything.

Enjoyed a tasty Jazz apple, and am smoking KBV The Awe Das City in a 1979 smooth straight dark brown Loewe Army 910 billiard with a silver cap military mount and a tapered black vulcanite stem. I wonder why none of the local stores have golden delicious apples. They have plenty of every other kind.

Since I used military mount pipes for my last five smokes, I'm continuing the theme: several years old Dunhill Elizabethan in a smooth medium bend straight grain 2001 Karl Erik Ekstravagant brandy with a leaf engraved silver band and a black acrylic saddle stem.

Meet Parson's Blend... developed for the parson himself! One of our dear customers, who happens to be an Anglican priest, asked for a blend that his wife would let him smoke indoors and that also would not lead to tongue bite. Parson's Blend is our effort to deliver these characteristics in a...

What ya got there in the plug Brother...

Description of the tobacco:

"A base blend of Red Mottled Virginia and Carolina Leaf, to which small amounts of Turkish Havana and medium-strength Kentucky are added to achieve a balanced effect
effect. Everything is blended and stored for a few days to be fully intregrated. Then this mixture is divided into 10 pound pieces and cold pressed for several weeks. During this process, harmonization is naturally obtained and a very slow burning flake is produced. Color: light brown, medium strong."

Tastes great!

It’s 2010 Gawith Hoggarth Dark Flake unscented in a Caminetto Business shape 137. I haven’t been on all week, as my cat and best pal of 12.5 yrs Watson passed last Friday at the age of 16. It has been a rough week, and our house feels empty without him. He was a big fan of coming out on the deck with me while I had a pipe or cigar! Miss him terribly!
