What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

[John Boyer]

Samuel Gawith's 2006 Christmas Blend gifted by John Boyer.
Goes well with a dram ration of Kentucky bourbon.

Harp,

As I mentioned in my note, this is one of my favorite Christmas blends. However, it probably isn't for everybody. If it doesn't suit you, mix it with a few pinecones and it will make good potpourri. If it does suit you, I have 2-3 Mason jars left in the "tobacco cellar".

John,

Gawith is a fine seasonal.
Back with Frog Morton this evening and Simone's writing.

Giving the AB Prensado another shot. It has great flavor but takes maintenance to keep it burning.

A box of La Aroma de Cuba Edicion Especial #5 arrived today. I've read that you should let a new box sit for a few days in the humi before smoking one, but I didn't this time. It's a really nice cigar. I recommend it.

I had a blend from my local pipe shop in a Peterson 307. I really like Peterson pipes, I think they outnumber all of the other pipes I own put together.

Esoterica Penzance in a Peterson Aran, John Bull.

Funny all this talk about Petersons as I picked up a new Peterson yesterday:

Had two plugs of good, old Amphora Full Aroma in the garden yesterday evening. Very relaxing.

Nice Pete! That looks like a Peterson Tyrone. I've Tyrone zulu (268).

Dry ashes,

Harp,

Which of Simone's writings are you reading?

John

A dog-eared Penguin pocket edition of Letter to a Priest,
which the addressed Jesuit apparently ignored.
Written after her 'conversion' and predictably Simonesque.

Considering her ascetic nature, I'm surprised she smoked.

Last time I went into to my B&M my tobacconist reccomended I try a BrickHouse. It was under 5 bucks and looked well constructed so I grabbed one. I wish I had gotten more cos it is good! Perfect burn, good ash, great flavor.
