Gaslight in Peterson Christmas 2019 999. For whatever reason, the tobacco wouldn't dry today. After an hour, loaded the pipe and went out. It was good smoke without too much moisture. But was little harsh towards the end. The chamber was dry and not much moisture in the mortise. So no clue why it was harsh.
