***What Are You Smoking, March 2025?***

[VDL_Piper]

States of Virginia sounds similar to what McClelland did with their Red & Black, minus the brights.
Mixing all 3 sounds similar to McClelland's Virginia Woods and Butera's Matured Ribbon.
I'm sure there are others with all 3 as well, definitely making a nice Virginia blend.

It was damn tasty for sure and what was very nice was the fact you could smoke the varietals separately and get to understand them and once mixed you knew what each one was and how they worked together in the blend. Fun stuff and a great study in Virginia leaf.

Mowed and aerated the pasture after morning chores.
Afternoon bowl of ES 4th Gen, Evening Flake in the 2009 Boswell Poker. Glass of water with some homemade Kombucha.

A bowl of ODF in a 1937 347 Bruyere Canadian with a US pat. no.1343253/20. It is a wonderful smoker, but I have never read of the model number 347 until I chanced upon this pipe. Does anyone know whether this is an authentic dunhill or not?

The stamping is very worn but I will try to show it below:

Starting “Back from the Ashes” on the Kindle, and thought I’d better choose an appropriate pipe!

Walked the dog and enjoyed a nice bowl of GLP Cumberland in a Stanwell Billiard. This pipe seems relegated to the back of my rotation and I have no idea why, its small so it's good for short smokes and its tall but narrow so it should be a flake machine. Ennui of choice I suppose.

Took a short break to clean estate pipes, and have passed the quarter mark of this bowl of C&D The Beast (Small Batch 2025) in a 1986 three quarter bend Bacchus face CAO meer with a tapered dark tortoise shell colored acrylic stem.

Now smoking Ken Byron Ventures Mr. Christian’s Brown Flek 2021 in a straight smooth dark brown year 1933 Parker Super Bruyere patent 10 T 81/F lovat with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Haven't smoked this pipe in a while. It'll get me to dinner time.

 

[Sobrbiker]

A good sized smoke of GLP Navigator in the Sportsman 87 for the drive home today.
Jacked my back/hip up a bit yesterday wrestling a steel grate, I probably should’ve called my crew for some help, but pain is just weakness leaving the body

Researching what i hope will be no more than a one pipe problem, with 2021 Navigator Flake in the SMS 6 panel bent lattice meer and a beer.
