*** What Are You Smoking?*** (September 2018)

[JimInks]

Enjoyed some spaghetti and an apple, and am smoking Wilke No. 172 in a medium bend raw sienna toned early Radice sandblast egg with bamboo carving on the shank and a black acrylic stem. Might end the day with this smoke.

Smoking some regular lightly aged Plum Pudding in a basket cob and Vauen Francesca. The special reserve is superb but I love the original also and I think it stands on it's own merits as well as an occasional smoke. Trying to finish my jar. I'm trying to focus on two jars at a time until they're gone to really gain an understanding of the blends I'm enjoying.
