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

[Carol]

Thinking about raspberries, made me think about Sakura.

Have you tried KBV Sakura? Grab a pouch, this is a top notch blend.

It’s not a stereotypical Aro, a lot of tobacco notes/flavors going, it’s also not a typical cherry tasting, style blend either.

KBV Sakura – KBV

Thanks! I'll keep it in mind to try.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and snow peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm a third of the way through this bowl of year 2019 C&D Yorktown in a straight sandblasted black post-1938 (Comoy’s) Made in England Ancestor bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Off to work now.

I have been absent for a few days beavering through endless cr*p at the office. Today I opened a pouch of Mick McQuaid from the late 1990s early 2000 and was pleasantly surprised to find the plug was in pretty good condition without need of rehydration. I am using this run of the mill meerschaum 'cutty' which is slowly turning a delightful sh*t color whilst I catch up on some more chores.

All hail the Cutty King!

My first go at another Hearth & Home Slow Aged blend, this time Bright Night, a straight VA. Very nice and burns very cool too. Pipe is a Wiley.

Savinelli 140 in a Musicò. Perfect weather today. Thankfully the atmospheric smoke has subsided. Yesterday it was difficult to breathe outdoors.

My Savinelli Bing snapped when I was tapping out the ashes! Good luck with that one!

Original release Windjammer in a Georg Jensen bent brandy. I always forget how well all my pipes smoke when I give them a really deep clean. This one was pretty gross when I started cleaning it up last weekend.
