What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

Had a good 60 minutes-smoke on my new favorite place! Each of the two middle-sized pipes gave 30 minutes.

The Vauen Basic 1500 and another dark, rustical Jean Claude.

My "potty", the Vauen Duett 1509, and it turned out, that this one is also a top-smoker! Gave me 40+ minutes!

And my smaller classic Jean Claude .
Both with MacBaren Mixture Scotish Blend.

Vauen Duett 1509. Yeah, this pot is def. top-smoker!

Today, I managed to get a smoke over 1 hour and 20 minutes! I could indeed smoke the fill down to the end!

Man, I tell you, I had a wonderful smoke over 1 hour and 30 minutes with the Savinelli Etna 320 KS!

Since yesterday, I finally know trick how to be able to smoke the filling all the way down!!

So, when you're down to the point, when the pipe seems to WANT to go out, take your pipetool's pin, drive carefully down to the smokehole and "free" it a little.
And you will see, the pipe smokes like devil, again!

These generic "mini stick lighters" are a good alternative to finger-hostile basic cigarette lighters or classic pipe lighters, in my opinion!
And refilling works. :)

But I have to add something.

I will def. hold on them, because they are still great. BUT, you have to make sure to always having some in reserve! Because after some weeks they're always getting unwilling to burn like in the beginning, equally if refilled.
