Three Star Blue date on jar 2014 Pipe of choice: my Don Warren Morta Poker Pipe with a straight shank and stem. This pipe was made to my specifications, as far as the size of the bowl and chamber dimensions. Great smoker and well crafted. 👌👍 That tobacco sounds like the wife's ointment. 😈 Works both on males and females...lol. It’s an excellent blend👌👍👍 Sold @ Iwan Ries....Three Star Blue: Made with a healthy base of toasted burley and bright Virginia Flake. Black cavendish, perique and latakia are then added to round out the flavor. Topped with just a hint of vanilla flavoring, Old Colonial is an exceptionally light aromatic and sure to please a variety of smokers. |

Now smoking the last of this tin of HU Old Fredder’s Broken Flake in a smooth straight early 1960s Lane era Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. Phone chatting with an old reprobate.

Sitting on the deck sipping some black coffee and smoking Davidoff Flake Medallions in my restored no-name bent egg. I should be mowing the lawn, but WTH, I am enjoying the overcast afternoon. The dog is swimming. He's enjoying it too.  |

After a wait of almost 2 years I'm launching a Root Briar 5117! (yes, it took that long to get it here!) with some oldish McClelland 2010 with some hot black coffee, just inside the shed to shield the new bowl from the nice breeze here, listening to Tedeschi-Trucks Band (somewhat softly in the background! I plan on this bowl taking two hours to smoke -very slow and easy. Congratulations! If that number means what I think it does, that would be a group 7 bowl size? I can get an hour out of my group 3. Break it in easy. Good luck and great smoking. OH, NO - NOT A GP 7 - a Gp 5 (the first number is gp size); the second number is for stem style (1 is tapered, and you guessed it, 2 is for saddle!); the next two numbers (for modern Dunhills) are for the shape number - the 17 being the straight Rhodesian (straight squat bulldog in the US). My gosh, I don't think I've ever seen a Gp 7! That would be a Magnum, imo. |

My last bowl wasn’t quite doing it. I didn’t sense any of it’s usual flavor and/or taste. I put the pipe down, attended a meeting and am now using the delayed gratification technique. HU Dockworker in a Larsen trumpet with an acrylic stem. I tamped it tight, and am taking more time between puffs. It’s slightly better. I think this smokes best in a narrow bowl. It’s not awful, i just have higher expectations. Of the 3 HU flake I've tried, Dockworker & Sunset are OK, but I wouldn't reorder them. Haymaker is the front runner and I'd order that by the pound, were it available stateside. |
