    ***What Are You Smoking, June 2024?***

    Hope you managed to stay cool! Though I'm sure that's no problem when you're as hip as Carol is. Alright I'll... cool it with the dad jokes. Wouldn't want anyone to get... hotheaded. Not on my watch. Not 'til hell... freezes over!. Okay, my sincerest apologies for that, I'm finished. I'm...

    What brand/model/shape is this pipe? Looks great.

    I’ll deal with the ash when I stand up, I’m smoking some C&D Palmetto Balkan mixed with Lane 1Q, which may be heretical, I’m not certain. It’s really good though. It reminds me of the first pipe tobacco I ever smoked, way back in the early 2000’s probably. I can’t even remember what it was, or...

    This will be the after lunch smoke and drink today. In a system spigot 312.

    ***What Are You Smoking, June 2024?***

    Smoking my first bowl of Lane 1q. It tastes like a toaster strudel or pop tart or something. Super familiar but I can’t exactly put my finger on it. It just hit me as I was about to post this, it’s fig newtons. It tastes exactly like fig newtons. Edit: I think it is molasses actually.

    This is only flake that I cube cut. Everything else I either thoroughly rub all the way out to shag or occasionally fold and stuff if I need a really long smoke. But I felt that the tobaccos in Ennerdale really shine and smoke great when you cube cut the flake.

    Big post today. I’m having some PS LBF in a rusticated system spigot 312 right now. Next up is either Lane 1Q or I’ll open some 2022 G&H Rum Flake. Having a Narragansett as my beverage. (Ignore the Guinness, I’m ill disposed for taking high-faluting glamour shots, this is an older one) A...

    That is one hell of an Oom Paul!

    Thank you for the tip, I will give that a try, certainly. I like the spigot thanks to the vulcanite stem. With you being able to order fishtails, I wonder if I could still order a vulcanite system standard? I like the p-lip but I can immediately see why some hate it. I have an overbite and it’s...

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    Well I hate to be a fan boy but I’m pretty much sold on the Peterson System. Had this pipe since Saturday and haven’t used another since I got it. Seriously considering sending the rest of my pipes off to be sold as estates and using the funds to get another couple system pipes. When you dump...

    Having some MB Rustica HH bulk in this Peterson System Spigot 312 I got over the weekend. Also, I rewatched There Will be Blood and noticed Daniel Plainview (Lewis’s character) using a jar as a pipe rack. Can’t believe I didn’t think of it sooner. I really needed a pipe rack.

    Had a bowl of LBF, now moving on to marlin flake, still smoking a Peterson system spigot 312

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    Today is a very happy day! I have a new pipe to break in and it’s one I’ve been somewhat enamored with for a while. It’s a Peterson System Spigot 312. Sort of a bent brandy I suppose, with a spigot mount on a tapered vulcanite p-lip mouthpiece. I’ve been cellaring exactly one and a half flakes...

    Bijou is really good. Really love what C&D does with orientals.

    Help Identify a Peterson System Pipe

    What do you think would be a fair price for said pipe with the stem, as pictured? Is this effectively the same as just buying the bowl with a missing stem in terms of price? It doesn’t have the step down I don’t think either, I don’t know if it’s tapered like a p-lip stem, but it didn’t have a...

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    Pretty much been sticking to these two for the past couple days. I think I’m gonna try an experiment and just smoke these two blends for the next week, so I may post less. Wouldn’t want to bore y’all anymore than I already do! This Balkan has a sweetness to it that I just keep coming back for...

    Help Identify a Peterson System Pipe

    So it’s obviously a little old, has a really weird stem though. It’s a p-lip but the bore is actually positioned where a fishtail’s bore would be. It still uses a p-lip shaped button and opening though. Is this a replacement stem or something? What gives?

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    I opened up this tin of Palmetto Balkan. I think the Latakia is a little different, I’ve gotten some interesting floral notes. Don’t want to say too much this being the first bowl. Tried it in a Peterson Carroll of Carrollton 2023, 84/250. It’s a sandblasted pear/acorn with a sterling silver...

    More LBF. Smoking a very old French apple with a straight tapered red/orange and black cumberland stem.
