What Is In Your Pipe? - January 2020.

I'm starting off the new year with a bowl of year 2001 Dunhill Navy Rolls in a straight 1968 Dunhill Shell bulldog with a black vulcanite stem. Happy Year's, folks!

First bowl of 2020 is 2010 McClelland Aurora in the little rusticated pot.

Happy New Year Folks.... DGT Sam’s Awesome Burley Mix in a Peterson bent rhodesian. I smoked about half of this pipe from 11 to 12am. I just relit it, so I’m going to say this isn’t my first pipe of the new year.

From a freshly opened tin, I'm smoking year 2001 VaPer Three Nuns in a 1938 straight black grain relief Dunhill OX Shell bulldog with a silver band repair with a black vulcanite saddle stem. I was going to wait on this, but I couldn't.

Happy New Year 2020, best of wishes for you and your families, ''keep on puffing'' my fellow pipe smokers!
