 Happy smoking June 16, 2006 7:08 AM

Hi Melissa, Haven't seen (noticed) you at SF for a while. Following RonM's (Ron Magnuson) pipe give-away in early May (I was the lucky recipient of a free Dunhill and two other pipes) I've been adding more tobacco to my cellar, mostly Virginias. Do you, like most pipesters, 'stock up'? By the way, though I don't 'look a gift pipe in the chamber', I have yet to to discover the wonderful qualities that seem to justify the outrageous prices of Dunhills, a machine-made pipe. Mind you it's an excellent pipe, but no better than my Stanwells, Savinellis, Chacoms, Petersons, or other. I guess it's all a matter of branding. What do you think? Wishing you a great weekend, and happy smoking, Henk Gauw + Gasparini Brass + McClelland's Royal Cajun Dark Abbotsford, BC henk@gauw.com  [ send green star]

Some Field & Stream in my Tim West sitter while I try to remember what sunshine is. Boy, are we getting some rain!

I have been enjoying some Field & Stream in the backyard during afternoon breaks. Love that Spring has finally sprung!

Cheers,

Melissa

Tonight I have a two hour drive to get to a friends to visit.  It'll be a perfect time for some Dunhill 965 or McC Frog Morton ... there's an old friend of a battered billiard that is calling my name.

Have a good weekend!

A quick break from work and another dip into the Altadis sampler box

Some Montegro Bay "Golden Virginia and Mellow White Burley topped with New England and Jamaican Rums" in one of my mini cobs.

Ok, it is still snowing (expect between one and two feet of the stuff) but the wind has cut down some so it's time for a pipe or two!

Some Knox' Cherry Cordial in my Wilke. Cheers!

Hi Gent February 12, 2006 10:52 AM

Yes, nothing is ever going to compete with my pipes when it comes to a good smoking experience. I am really enjoying all the flavor available in my new cobs. Still, I have heard so many good things about cigars I figured I might as well give some a try.

Just like snuff. Indeed, today we have this ongoing blizzard and there is no way to use a venting fan with all this howling wind. So, this afternoon I am enjoying a few pinches of Gawith Apricot Snuff. For all the different ones I’ve tried (merely 6 out of the hundreds available) this Apricot is my favorite!

Melissa,

Smoke those cigars in peace.  As for me, it's the briar and only the briar.  It's all I ever wanted to smoke.

Well, in my recent venture into the world of cigars I purchased some regulars and some flavored.

Trying one of the little flavored this afternoon-- a Cojimar Sambuca.

Though not a bad smoke, I would get this again except for one thing--the tips are sugared!

WAY, way too sweet for me. Would very much prefer it without that addition, because otherwise it is nice, mild and rather cheering. Alas that damn sugar! Needs a darn strong cup of tea to rid my mouth of it.

ALMONDINE January 21, 2006 11:30 AM

Taking a break with some Tobacco Galleria Almondine this afternoon.

Second time I've tried this and this time the flavor of the almond liquor is coming through just fine. Needed a larger bowl pipe as I suspected. Full bent Trypis BTW.

Cheers!

This Afternoon's Smoke January 04, 2006 10:39 AM

Some more Cc 2003 in My Moretti Magnum and for a second pipe some Knox Crocket Cherry Cordial in my Wilke Beaded Bent. Both great smokes!  [ send green star]
 
Afternoon Smoke December 28, 2005 11:24 AM

This afternoon I am smoking more Cc 2003 in my new Moretti Magnum pipe.

This McClelland's is so good I may just have to finish the tin over this winter and not bother jarring and saving any till next holiday. Considering I have 3 extra tins I'm certainly not worried about going without.

Good stuff!
