Tonights Smoke II - FOR PIPES

[Mad Hatter]

I had Haddo's Delight, Haddo's Delight and Haddo's Delight............... damnit

[Darth Smoker]

Ok, I give up. What does "DGT" mean?
re: MC2010
as in "This flake is the standard by which I judge most Virginias. 2010 has a nice, sweet taste without the addition of a topping, it ages with excellence, like a fine Virginia should, and it only gets better as you work your way down to the bottom of a bowl. I assume this would be an excellent candidate for your DGT effect, though I must admit I am too impatient to bother with the experiment."

got an order in today, so i was busy

PS lux lullseye flake-sorta bland, too mild for me
FMATP-1st syrian latakia blend, different, still sorta mild
HH vint syrian-nice & smoky but sorta mild
GH brown twist sliced-yep, that's what i was lookin' for

i'm not giving up on any of the 1st 3 yet, maybe try adding something or earlier in the day

[JacksonCognac]

Been busy the past couple days, having some Frog Morton along with a rum and coke.

Plumcake with the Cassano Luca, in the 48F garage whilst sipping Whidbey's, a delightful local port, and giggling my way through a phone call with a fine BOTL two time zones away... I {heart} the miracle of modern communication technology!

Delayed Gratification Technique.

Smoke some of the bowl and then let it go out for a period of time...30 minutes to 3 days, depending on whateverthehellyoufeellike. Then come back and light 'er back up. This allows the unsmoked tobacco to get stoved a bit, maybe meld some, maybe smooth out (depends on the tobacco, something you can learn to your tastes from experience).

In general you'll find that many VA's will smooth and darken, maybe loose their bite. VA/Pers may very well darken and get spicier Perique. Burleys can get downright "punch you in the gut" fuller. personally I don't care to do this much with aromatics heavy Latakia blends.

Try it have some fun


bugger, I almost forgot ----- smoking Affordable's Guy's navy Blend tonight...2 bowls 2 bowls 2 bowls full

[SAjunidog]

I've got some two month old EMPI haven't sampled since I got it (and it tasted like garbage) so here's hoping it turns out better tonight! I think I'll smoke it in my first ever pipe, a simple basket straight bulldog.

Just don't be tossing that half smoked pipe in the bottom of your purse without a cap... your lipstick will collect it all and turn vaper grey, and you'll make an ash of yourself cursing a blue cloud while dumping your bag full of sooted items out on the conference room table. DAMHIK!!

Thanks for the info Evan. I will have to remember this and give it a try this weekend.

[Poriggity]

Frog Morton in the cheapy briar. Smoked maybe 1/2 a bowl abit ago while on a truck break !! Gonna do the other 1/2 tonight after karate.

I might try some Dunhill Nightcap later tonight, just have to see how it goes.

[smokinmojo]

I had a bowl of 2015 in a Pipa Croci. Then had a bowl of 1792 in a Peterson bulldog. That added up to a great afternoon. (or 3807)

[IHT]

mojo, oddly enough, i almost had both last night...

have only had a montecristo club so far today... i'm out of butane, need to order some more Lava, down with the matches, which sucks while driving.

[cigar_040]

Finished up that other 1/2 of Frog Morton on the way home !!

[rehbas21]

Looks like Im going to have some Mellow Moonshine tonight.
