    Whats Your Pipe Style?

    My collection consists of a variety of shapes - billiards, bulldogs, a Dublin, a Zulu and Rhodesian. Most are rusticated bent - either full, 3/4th or a slight bend. My only straight pipes are 2 bulldogs. Does that mean I need a classic straight billiard or Dublin (or both) to round out my...

    Fires In The West

    Mso, thanks for your concern & I hope your family is ok. The 3 big SF Bay Area fires are almost 90% contained. However, the air quality has been unhealthy for weeks. Yesterday it topped out at 221 or “very unhealthy” - which seems to be the case throughout much of CA, OR & WA. We have a...

    Pipe Rotation; Yes, No, Maybe So?

    I have a rotation of about 10 pipes that I smoke. I’m usually a 1 bowl per day smoker so each Pipe gets about 10 days rest. I also keep a pipe log with with date and blend - I notice that my Peterson 312 & Roma 320 get a little more action than the rest...so maybe not so strict a rotation.

    ***What Are You Smoking, Sept. 2020?

    Just lit up a bowl of Mission Pipe Shop English Oriental in a Savinelli Hercules. I’m sure this big bowl will add to the already unhealthy air quality in San Jose.

    ***What Are You Smoking, Sept. 2020?

    Smoking the English ghost out of this Peterson System Standard 312 with some GLP Fillmore - still my favorite Va/Per - although Solani 633 & De Luxe Navy Rolls are tied for second.

    ***What Are You Smoking, Sept. 2020?

    Eerie day in San Jose, yellow/orange skies - seemed like we were in Mars. Relaxing on the deck with some Sutliff Match 20 in a Rossi Rubino Antico.

    ***What Are You Smoking, Sept. 2020?

    My Va/Per exploration continues with my first bowl of De Luxe Navy Rolls in a Stanwell Bulldog. So far, very enjoyable!

    ***What Are You Smoking, Sept. 2020?

    Tonight’s smoke - MM 965 in a Peterson Premier System B42. It’s cooled down to 94 on the deck tonight - but it’s a “dry heat”...

    ***What Are You Smoking, Sept. 2020?

    Back from a few days away, getting ready to smoke some Early Morning Pipe in this new to me post transition Barling 4129 Bulldog. Finally pulled the trigger on this Barling after adding and subtracting it several times to my Blue Room Briars cart.
