2nd pipeful of St. Bruno Flake at the bottom half of the bowl w/Watch City Cigar Flake #558 on the top half... this really works for me! Amazing how the #558 flake filters through the St. Bruno for a marvelous transition of burley/Bruno smoke! Thanks again Motto for the example of mixtures in your posts... Based on a sample of Savinelli 140th Anniversary blend provided by JimInks , I placed an order for some, and also the De'Oro coins, from www.smokingpipes.com - VERY highly recommended! |

Watch City Slice in an 1/8 bent Tinsky Sunrise with a wooden inlaid shank and amber stem. Drinking ice tea with lemon, watching NFL and getting ready to put a hand made pizza in the oven. That'll mean bed time for this old man when my belly is full.

Up early because the city trucks picked up leaves loudly, so I made a couple personal calls, and just finished smoking Jim's VaPer in a 2014 smooth medium bend Basil Meadows egg with an aluminum band and a "root beer swirl" acrylic stem. Simply Apple is my drink.

G'day, some cigar, & my Rat' Butchers Boy with half Clan & half St. Bruno & a pinch of Boson Cut Plug on the table, countdown to Xmas, are the gifts all ready ? , bye. - I once again admire your daring with mixtures... your recent posts evidence a predilection for floral fruity sweet plugs (me too!), and seems you've sampled quite a few. If I may recommend to add to your cornucopia: Coniston Cut Plug, Mick McQaid, G. L. Pease Jackknife Plug, Peterson's 3 P's Perfect Plug, and Erinmore Plug (fruity sweet!!!) These also make great mixers with flakes and other shag cuts, fortifying with those flavors that we favor! Enjoy |

CONDOR Plug... neat. Air-dried to a crisp for a somewhat hotter smoke, albeit no less flavorful - arguably, IMO, still the KING of perfumey sweet Virginia based smokes when nothing else will satisfy quite so. CONDOR is what desert island smoke is made of!
