The Briar Club

    The meeting last night came off without a hitch, in spite of the sky opening up rain and hail. In attendance were 8.

    The club pipe made by Bill Feuerbach of Kaywoodie is a real beauty and it got rave reviews from our club members. Special thanks to Bill for the great pipes. They smoke very well!

    The contest also took place last evening, following the rules as set forth by UPCA and provided to me by Steve Fallon. It was obvious that most of us were new to the smoking contest, but it was a blast anyway. We had the new Kaywoodie pipes of course along with the blend “Ramback Balkan by 2 Daughters. Despite the name, this primarily VA blend is a good all around smoke.

    Results:
    Bob 27:14 winner, getting a pound of Ramback!
    Monti 27:00 getting a old can of CAO Midnight Ride
    Gary ZZ 26:00
    Tim 20:28
    Gregg 19:46
    Colin 18:12
    David 17:58

    Thanks to everyone for participating in the club pipe!

    Next meeting: May 17 at Up In Smoke Lewisville

    The Briar Club of North Texas is alive and well. We had our IPSD celebration a week late due to schedule conflicts, but it was fun anyway. The focus tobacco was the new Jack Knife Plug by GLP. I think we all walked away with a dizzy head, but it was tasty.

    The club eagerly awaits out club pipes from Kaywoodie due to arrive by 3/15, the next regular club meeting. We will have a slow smoking contest that evening, featuring the new pipes and the interesting pipe blend Rambak Balkan.

    3rd Annual Christmas Party, 12/14/10 at the Fox and Hound Pub, Lewisville, TX.

    We are in the works with negotiating with Kaywoodie on our first club pipe. As of now, it will be a group 5 sized Prince, dark blast with black ebonite stem. The pipe is part of one of Kaywoodie’s upper line with no stinger. We should order the pipes in January.
