Had some brindle flake this morning, loved it!

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I had a bowl of "sweepings". Mostly VaPers with a little Balkan and some other stuff mixed in. Not bad stuff. The only problem is when it's great, there's little chance of reproducing it exactly.

More escudo. Finally getting the hang of stuffing this.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Are you folding or rubbing it out? Folding has always been to much of a pain for me so I tend to rub out everything.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Pulled out the D.E. Harvest On Hudson and three cobs.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Guitar pick method. Packed a larger pipe with two coins and really effed things up. Used a smaller pipe and one coin. One hour of bliss.

Dunhill Elizabethan in the on deck circle.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Yesterday was cob Tuesday so I took my favorite Santia cob and loaded it with my favorite H&H El Nino.

Today was some 10 year old Brown Clunee in a regular cob while spinning some briar on the lathe.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

3 Nuns again this morning. I'll be needing to order more soon.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Captain Bob's Blend in a Missouri Pride Cob, and in a Baraccini Tulip. This was my first smoke in the Tulip. I got it on special last year and just got around to using it. I did open up the airway and chamfered the end of the tenon because I have read in the past these pipes are not good smokers. I should have smoked it before making the mods...but it is a flawless smoker now that cost (at the time) around $30.

SG Best Brown Flake and Esoterica Dorchester in my current favorite cob.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Cracked a tin of SG chocolate flake courtesy of Munky. Very nice smoke, enjoyed it to ashes in a cob

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Three nuns. Far and away my favorite since picking up pipes. Highly recommended.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Great stuff Jerry!

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Yenidje Supreme, Treasures of Ireland Limerick, Esoterica Dorchester, and SG St. James Flake(holy cow this stuff is good) all in my trusty Country Gentleman. Need to get a couple more of these cobs, replacing the Legends as my favorite of the MMs.

I got into this game late, so I never tried the original VAPER Three Nuns. I can't imagine how it could be better than the new edition.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Just finished a bowl of Dunhill Early Morning Pipe. Really good stuff.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Yes I quite agree.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Smoked my first bowl of Dunhill Nightcap tonight. That is some nice tobacco. One of the best I have tried in my limited experience so far!

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I felt that way about a tin I smoked ~November. But then I smoked Pease "Gaslight," which is so good I would have to classify it as belonging in the stratosphere with 3Nuns made by Imperial, which is not to say anything bad about "Nightcap," always a classic.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

PH Dark Strong Flake

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Is there that big a difference from the Murray Nightcap to the current production Nightcap? I haven't opened a tin of the current blend yet because I still have the old stuff :D That being said, I'd never put Gaslight above "Murray" Nightcap. It is good, but not that good IMHO. :2

Off to the shop for a day of playing on the lathe. I'll be smokin' H&H El Nino to start the day, then a bowl or two of Blackhouse, finishing the day off with Magnum Opus. All will be in pipes I made. :tu

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Yesterday was two bowls of the H&H Marquee to be named later blend & finished the day with Magnum O! again.

Today I think will be a cigar day.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Had some C&D Morning Drive Time earlier today. Getting ready to light up some Boswell Northwoods.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

H&H Larry's Blend in several different meers yesterday.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Right now I am finishing up a nice bowl of Penzance in my Mastro De Paja Rusticated Bent Apple. I have a three day weekend starting tonight so I thought I would indulge a little!

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

C&D Autumn Evening. Best Maple aromatic around....

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

It's made with quality red virginia, which I love. For some reason AE never clicked with me, but I can attest to it being an excellent aromatic. I think my tastes shifted further away from aromatics. :/

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

2003 Wessex Sovereign Curly Cut in a cob

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Had a bowl of Old Gowrie and really enjoyed it. Could've been made better by the fact I never had to relight it and I was smoking outside for the first time in months. A great smoke nonetheless.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Boswell's Northwoods.....again and again. Love this stuff.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

A wee bit of mid 90's Nightcap in an Old Dominion "Chesapeake" cob. These tiny pipes are good for a apx. 10 min. treat.

Smoking some Frog Morton Cellar in my savinelli 320.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Three bowls today:
2005 Christmas Cheer in a cob
2003 Wessex Sovereign Campaign Curly Cut (yum) in a cob
ERR Match in a cob

Yep. It's a nice day off and I'm doing a heap o' yard work.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Right now, it is something called Wooden Indian. A friend brought it back from a shop in Memphis. Pretty dang good....


I tend to lean towards the aromatics. Mostly light aromatics though . C&D does a fantastic job with them. Then again, I have never had anything from C&D that was not fantastic.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I recently picked up a tin of Dunhill Nightcap and just now got around to trying it. I gotta say that it was delightful! If it weren't for my increasingly disappointing Kaywoodie, I would have enjoyed it better. I like the shape of the Kaywoodie, but it burns way too hot and the draw is tighter than I like. This baccy may just inspire me to smoke a pipe more often and find a replacement for the Kaywoodie.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Had a bowl of Dunhill Early Morning Pipe today

Escudo
Anni Kake
Butternut Burley

I had some Anni Kake yesterday. That stuff is real good.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Last night, smoked some Squadron Leader, which probably needed to be dried out just a little. Then, some Butternut Burley.

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Carter Hall in a cob past few days. Very good at what it does (which isn't much).

I've read complaints that most SG blends are very wet. I've had very little trouble with my tin though. Dry some and try it both ways. I've seen the same tobacco exhibit different flavors when dried vs. out of the tin.

Cheers :tu

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

I have a kaywoodie also. My main complaint of that pipe is the gurgle and slop around the stinger. Occasionally I get a taste of nicotine water. Nasty! It's to the point that I disassemble it and blow it out and run a cleaner while smoking a bowl. If I could only find a nice little apple like this that didn't gurgle....

Re: Whats in your bowl?
 

Food for thought, Jerry.

Thanks!
